You cannot run multiple downloaded versions of TurboTax on the same computer. 

Also, The IRS imposes a limit of 5 e-mail returns.  Preparing greater than 5 returns is viewed by the IRS as being 'a preparer' and requires registration with the IRS.  It is not a TurboTax limitation, and it does not matter how many TurboTax packages you buy; if you try to e-file more than 5 returns, you will most likely be drawing IRS attention to yourself.

Can I explain anything further to you?

I only need to know if a second turbotax program will run on this computer and efile a 6th and 7th tax return without a program conflict.  happy to buy a second product if it will work for me

You are allowed to install the desktop software on multiple computers that you own.  There is still a limit of five federal e-files total for the download/CD you install.  More than five--you print, sign and mail them.
