Another Year with Installation Issues
on March 23, 2014
Posted by: jbp1
This is the third year that i received error message while trying to load the software from CD on my Windows XP machine. Thankfully i was able to obtain the help i needed to get the software loaded from others who provided internet entries relating to my installation problems. No more Turbotax for me as i don't need the headaches to research the error issues and implement the solutions.
What's great about it: program perfomed calculations
I purchased the "Deluxe" CD version this year, intending to do a little "what if" scenarios by creating several different filing versions - for my analysis. The software "crashed" when moving from the federal return to my Ohio return. TurboTax support people were helpful on the telephone and after some delay, I was able to continue with my returns. However, when it came time to e-file, the program kept telling me to "download additional updates" and that the e-filing would not transmit. After several "updates' and attempts to e-file, I gave up and filed via postal mail.
What's great about it: Have successfully used TurboTax for many, many years.
What's not so great: This year, I experienced software problem and electronic filing problems.
With the requirements becoming stricter of the Federal and State wanted you to e-file your returns I don't feel that 5 is sufficient enough. You need to increase how many you can fiIe when you make the purchase of TurboTax. I am not able to do my immediate family (meaning my children) without having to enter them on another site where I can submit theirs for free.
What's great about it: Turbo is a great program. For the most part is extremely to use!
What's not so great: There should not be a limit on how many you can e-file. If I make the purchase I should be able to e-file my children's
TurboTax is great. No need for forms, instruction booklets or to seek assistance from the IRS or tax pro. TurboTax walks you through everything applicable to you. Just gather your info, sit at your computer and type in the data.
