I was disappointed to see a prompt to install x86 Rosetta emulator software when trying to install Turbotax 2024. I would've expected that many years ago... but now? Every Mac sold is Apple Silicon. Intuit expects every Mac user to run the emulation software?
Before I return the product, could someone from Intuit give an official response on this topic?
1) Will Intuit release a Mx optimized version of Turbotax 2024? If so, I'll wait...
2) If I don't want to install emulator software on my Mac, is there a free way to transfer license to Turbotax online and get access to the same capabilities without the software?
Thanks

I don't know where or why you're getting this prompt but I'm running TT 2024 download on Mac Mini M4 with MacOS 15, no issues, no emulator
Where did you download from?
there's a similar discussion on this topic here
they were concerned about running rosetta and we confirmed that TT 2024 is an "x86_64" intel excecutable. I am running a new M4 with Mac OS 15.1 Sequoia, looks like rosetta came with the OS and this is all happening behind the scenes for me, I did not do anything to install or invoke it. I purchased TT from Amazon.
I'm not sure if these will address your situation or not, but here are a couple FAQs that might be helpful for MAC:
