I am not able to enter info on form 1040 from cd download even in forms mode

Try step-by-step mode instead. It is fine to enter things in the forms mode, but is easier to input from Step-By-Step. Once in the Personal Tab, you can select I'll choose what I'll work on to be able to navigate to where you wish. The Business Tab is reserved for self-employment income and expense reporting.
