Your FAQs refer to windows -- I am using a Mac.  How can I get the update?

For Mac, close Turbo Tax and restart it.  It should automatically get the updates.  You might have to try it a couple times to get all the updates.  If you have trouble then try rebooting your Mac.

Hi,

I need a fix for my PC using Windows 10, not MAC.

Still does not work. Why is this an issue every year. Aren't we paying for this software?
