When I opened last years tax file to have TurboTax convert it to this year, when saving it, the app would not let me completely change directories to save it. I am left in the original folder, but no other files or folders are seen. I can go up a level and create a folder but cannot select any other folder.
In order for Turbo Tax to use the file, it would need to be in the original file. you can save the file and then move it to a different file, however this would cause Turbo Tax to not have access to open it.
TurboTax 2020 desktop for Mac will let me duplicate a file, then when I go to save it, the files and folder in that folder are visible. I can go up a level and see files and folders and go into another folder and save the file in that folder.
TurboTax 2021 desktop for Mac would not display the files and folders. However, when I just launched it, it downloaded and installed an update which seems to have fixed the problem.
So it looks like the issue is fixed.
