I entered all of the data for the 1099-misc and clicked done. It doesn't show up on the summary, but if you click edit the numbers are there. Advise?

When you enter Form 1099-MISC under the Personal income section of TurboTax, the program will often move it to other more appropriate sections of the program.  Most commonly if it is self-employment income (i.e independent contractor), the value on the screen will get moved from Personal to a Business section.  You should have a Business Items section (Business Income and Expenses - Schedule C) that you can check for the amount.  So, all of the income numbers are still there in your return, it's just the on-screen value or display that gets moved.  This is why you will likely see a $0 value on the summary screen.
