Hi,
I made some donations every year but did not enter in 2018 to 2021 Taxes. I chose standard deduction every year till 2021 and did not enter any details of donations. Can I enter itemized donations from 2018 to 2022 in 2022 taxes?

No. You would have to amend each year to add itemized deductions. And it won't change your returns unless all the Itemized Deductions are now more than the Standard Deduction.
A carryover of donations occurs when you claim a large donation in the year that you made it, but you cannot deduct the full amount because it exceeds the limit for donations. The amount that you cannot deduct is carried over to the following year. But there is no carryover for a donation that you could have claimed in an earlier year, but you did not claim it.

In the Turbotax software. it is asking for carryovers for noncash donations.
