Hint 1: Switch to "forms mode" where the charities are alphabetized!
Hint 2: Fill out a charity marked "AA Misc", then in forms mode simply type the dates and amounts for all cash contributions. They're summarized in a single line for the IRS anyway, so the per-charity detail can be kept for your records elsewhere.
Inuit is not really updating, fixing or caring about TT Desktop. It's a White Elephant.
Forms mode can found under the "View" menu.
That's a real bummer! It only makes sense to alphabetize. Why can't they do this? Couldn't tech support figure that out?
How to alphabetize list of charities?
I seem to remember that if you click on the "NAME" on the header (at the top left), it sorts the column. I hope that helps.

@SteamTrainThank you! That was a helpful tip. Not perfect, but it will save some time. 🙂
Edit: I am running TurboTax Premier 2024 on a Windows 11 machine.
Also asking how top alphabetize my long long list of charities.
Nope. In my copy of turbo, Charity Name isn't an active label.
Clicking on the name column only works in TurboTax Desktop. If you are not using TurboTax Desktop it will not let you alphabetize unless you entered them in alphabetical order when entering into TurboTax.
On the Mac desktop version running Premier version. Still doesn't work. I'm a retired computer programmer and find it amazing that this annoyance is there year after year. Maybe next year I'll just cut the TT cord and go with someone that actually improves their product going forward.
Still have questions?
