Errors in Turbotax

Lots of errors this year when letting TurboTax guide me step-by-step:

1.When entering Charitable Donations, it accepts all the information but there is not a "Done" button.  Therefore, when you go back to the Donation summary, the amounts are blank! Exiting the donations section sometimes fixes the problem and sometimes doesn't.  I couldn't figure out the pattern.

 

2. When I entered rental property income, it said it would ask for expenses later.  It never did!  I went back to expenses manually.  Then, when trying to add a dishwasher as a Rental Property Asset, it insisted on saying it was computers/electronics.  I exited and came back in and it allowed me to enter it as an appliance.

 

3. One time when I was exiting, the tally at the top said my refund was in the $100.00 range.  When I immediately reopened, it recalculated to be over $1200.

 

4.  One time when I opened TurboTax, it said it was updating.  OK, that is good.  It is actually why I had exited and restarted.  However, the update was to INSTALL NC TurboTax.  I DID NOT ask for a state install.  Fortunately, NC is what I will ultimately want, otherwise I would be really upset.

 

5.  One time when I opened TurboTax, it updated and said it was restarting.  It completely shut down instead.

You could try logging out of the program and logging back in. You can also clear your cache and cookies. It really does help the functionality of the program. 

 

Issues like slow loading times, incorrect display of website elements, or login problems, as the old cached information can conflict with the current version of a website, if you are using TurboTax Online.

Linda,

Your answer is not at all relevant as I am not using a browser.  I have TurboTax installed on my laptop. No amount of clearing things out of a browser or switching browsers will affect TurboTax when no browser is involved.
