BLANK SCREEN on Activation
First of all, don't change your normal resolution YET. Verify your scaling is at 100%. Clear your cache and cookies and reboot your computer. Re-open TurboTax. Now, when you see the blank box, change the display to 600/800. Go back to TT, you should see the activation bar now. Move your mouse over the bar to input the License Code - DO NOT click. The mouse should change from a hand/arrow to an "I" over the bar. Now, left-click once. Important: BLINDLY type in the License Code in with the dashes very carefully YOU WILL NOT SEE ANYTHING happen, but it is typing. Then click activate. It may take a few seconds to do something. After it accepts the LC you should be able to put scaling and resolution back to normal.
This is a screen resolution issue predominantly with laptops and can take hours to determine the perfecta combination of which screen resolution to scaling that will work. So, the above work around can take a few hours off of your attempts.
