I have just finished my 2005 taxes, using TurboTax as I have done for

bugs, errors and just downright stupidity, that it would be easier to
have done this the pen and paper way. What is inexcusable is that all
the 2005 data was neatly and carefully categorized in Quicken, but when
it was imported, categories were changed, amounts were double entered,
different things were agglomerated together - in short, it was a mess.

In some ways this is a relief. Intuit have been so arrogant in how they
have treated their customers, and so sloppy about supporting the Mac
user, that I am happy finally to have to kiss them goodbye. My guess is
that Quicken is not long for my world, either.


Worked fine for me .. though I did not interface with Quicken.

I hope you did the upgrade before starting.

Worked great for me as well, and I also didn't interface with Quicken.

TurboTax worked great for me also, except when I went to print the
returns, it spit out several blank pages, even though I told it to print
specific pages. I ended up "saving as pdf" and printing from Acrobat
Reader instead.
