Is it Apple (iMAC) or is it Turbo Tax??

Is it Apple or is it Turbo Tax


I received and downloaded my 2026 Turbo Tax. I started to fill out the 2026 questionnaire/form and common to at least the last 5 to 10 (?) years one of the early questions is if I want download/transfer relevant information from a previous year Turbo Tax submittal, in this case, to 2026.


As in all prior years, I indicated I want to make the transfer but Turbo Tax shows I have NO prior year submittals available to forward to 2026. This is obviously troubling since this is a transfer I do every year to eliminate having to start over – beginning with giving my name!


I tried to open my 2025 TT file only to find the completed tax return for Fed and State no longer exist. I know the Feds and State got the submittal since both sent a refund to me.


I decided to open up other prior year TT submittals and found the following:


2021 – Wanted TT license code, entered code, took me to a new form, the completed/submitted form cannot be found,

2022 – Refer to 2021,

2023 – Wanted Keychain password (didn’t know I had one), it took me through different several code requests only to finally open a brand new form; the completed 2023 was no where to be found

2024 – made me go thru several interim steps just like 2023 only to get to a new form, the completed TT tax return was gone.


In years past, the only ‘interim’ step was TT asking me to download any updates to finally get the completed/submitted TT tax return.


The simple question is what’s going on? Not showing anything to download and the completed/submitted tax returns no long exist on my computer.
