Foreign Tax Credit Form 1116

I am having a problem inputting all of the information for a foreign tax credit (Form 1116).  I have paid taxes in 5 foreign countries from individual stocks and also paid taxes from mutual funds (RICS).  I have been able to enter data for some but not all of these companies and funds.  (3 countries and no RICS).  I use 3 brokerages companies and most of the data (1099 DIV) was input using the TT download feature. I manually input the data on one account.  All of the 1099 DIV data shows foreign income and taxes paid.  I have attempted to input the data in many different ways, but have not been successful in all.  I have concluded that it is some sort of glitch in the TT software, but do not know for sure.  I spoke to a representative, but she was not successful solving the issue.  She suggested that I ask the community.  I found comments concerning the Form 1116, but not the one that specifically addresses my problem.  Hopefully the community can help.
