No, 401k contributions are not IRA contributions. All you need to do is enter your W-2. Do not enter them in the IRA contribution section.

No. If you have a 401k through your employer, you entered that when you entered everything from all the boxes of your W-2. Do not try to enter it again anywhere else in the software. A 401k is not a traditional IRA.
