I installed the 2nd PC with the key I purchased. I got this error:
"All Available activations for that code have been used. Error code:603"
Due to TT CA State download bug last week, I tried to install/uninstall TT couple times on the same PC.
Do I lost one new PC installation chance when I reinstall on the same PC???
Found the Resolution from this TurboTax support FAQ for possible solutions to this problem
Temporarily disable " antivirus/anti-malware/firewall software" and solve my problem...
Please see the TurboTax help topic for assistance with updating your software: Manually Update TurboTax for Windows Software (Basic, Deluxe, Premier, Home & Business). https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/updating/help/manually-update-turbotax-for-windows-software-basic-deluxe-premier-home-business/00/26041
Also, try turning off your virus protection and then turn it back on after your return saves. Please click here for the TurboTax
Help link on how to disable virus protection. https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/installing/help/how-to-disable-your-virus-protection-software/00/25615
This solution doesn't work if you need to install the software on another computer. All my licenses were used by the software performing activation on my machine. Now my family member wants to do their taxes and we are out of the licenses even though we technically did only 2 returns. Did is ridiculous. How do I get another working key so that my family members can do their tax return?
If you receive a error code with a message saying, “All available activations for that code have been used,” that means your code has already been used the maximum number of times, and therefore can’t be used to install the software on another computer. If you feel you have only completed 2 returns, you would want to use the link provided below to contact TurboTax:

Temporary disconnect the network cable wired/wifi when start the Turbotax. Or on Windows 10 ->Control panel->Network and sharing Center->Change adapter settings-> Right click on the network connection, disable. Restart your turbotax, then re-enable the network connection/wired or wifi network.
BTW, if it comes up with update and asks if you have Internet, just click cancel.
People:
I tried all instructed actions to no avail, (my findings) It seems either turbo tax updates or windows updates have a glitch of some kind.
The actual solution that fixed the problem was to UNINSTALL the program complete and RE INSTALL it, afterwards it doesn't even asks for a code since it was already registered in the computer. Out of three PC's only one gave me the problem.
I hope this help you, have a good tax season. Thanks

I have tried the steps in the one article, they did not work for me. still getting error when loading on third computer
Please call TurboTax Customer service. Here is a link: Turbo Tax Customer Service
If you have automatic real-time software (like Carbonite) backing up your system then try putting it on "PAUSE" while you do the TurboTax install and activation. I think this is what resolved the multiple requests for activation on my Windows 10 computer.
For me TurboTax updates caused license activation to occur each time it is updated. After updating a few times and activating a few times, I eventually got the Error code 603. Manually Update TurboTax for Windows Software using the link provide help fixed it for me. Other suggestions do not work for me (i.e. Turning off antivirus software or disconnecting from internet do not work).
This is a turbotax scam, when you buy the product there is no indication about the number of time to use the license, turbotax sales went down now they are trying to force users to buy more licenses. have been using turbotax for over 20 years with no problem and l have all software from the 1900, am very disappointed this year with this bad product , intuit reputation sucks now even quickbooks is bad, you can t transfer online quickbooks to desktop, they lock you in to collect the monthly charge, if you decide to go, you lose all your information and start over , this is a shame, they should sued for those scams. I noticed that when you first install turbotax, it works the first time, if you don t finish your return and turn the program off, when you return to continue, it ask you to activate the product , if you go back and forth, on and off on the same device, activating the program, you won t be able to finish your return because you be out of license losing your money and may have to buy another one, WHAT A SCAM of CON ARTIST SMH

There is no need to contact customer service, this product is simply a scam, too many update prompt every time the software is turned off, the program will idle acting like its updating and at the end it will say, there is no forms to update at this point, you are all set, after collecting data from the device, no thank you
