TurboTax 2022 mac Update Fails! It's October 12th! Only day before the deadline! HELP!

TurboxTax 2022 for Mac has been working great for weeks...I've been using the software and it has worked as expected....until today.

Today, TurboxTax 2022 won't open.  TurboTax 2022 force users to accept the update, if you don't, it quits immediately.  If you select to download the updates, the download completes and then gives an 'UPDATE ERROR!' message...."An error occurred while extracting the archive.  Please try again later."

 

Is there any hope to resolve this in time to finish filing by Oct 16th?

You and I must have been pulling our hair at the same time b/c of this error.

 

I saved PDFs of the forms required to file and the forms with all of the workbooks. I then copied these two PDFs and the TurboTax file of my return to another folder just to make sure I had a backup and could snail mail my returns if all else failed.

 

I then removed TT 2022 from my computer and reloaded it again from my disc. If you have a downloaded copy, I'd do that download first to make sure you can get to it. I couldn't get to a download even though I had my license info.

 

Once I restarted from the fresh install, I got the same message. But, I tried to update a couple more times and then just skipped it with the do not try again button. TT came up but I just shut it down and restarted. It updated normally at the start and I was able to transmit my returns.

 

Hope that helps and you have good luck with that approach.
