Get your taxes done using TurboTax
To update my post (had completed all tax prep, filed federal and then had TT crash after filing one state (with more needed to file): What finally worked was 1) creating a new user with admin privileges (not sure where I read to do that) 2) putting my completed TT return files in a shared folder that I my "new user" could access 3) downloading TT to the "new user" . Then because I had tried to run TT as the "new user" and it still wouldn't open, I followed the summary of Sbed650 (who credited jwhaskell1 and audge66)" 4) from Finder use GO tab at top then GO To Folder ~/library then PREFERENCES then delete the file named "com.intuit.turbotax.2020.plist" and 5) launch TT2020 but disregard Intuit's error message (i.e. close the box without sending Intuit a crash report!).
It seems to work now so long as I log onto the new user (now named "Turbotaxworkaround"). This is the first time I have had any trouble with TT -- but the biggest irony of it all is that when I finally went back to the state returns that needed filing and started the process, I learned that because I didn't have a driver's license from that state nor filed returns there before, I had to mail the return in anyways!
There was 5 hours of my life I'll never get back.
