I always thought it was awful software and ran so slow, but this year on my Mac Studio with M2 Ultra, it is barely functional. It literally takes 30 minutes or more every time I enter anything or try and save, in fact it might be more like an hour between clicks, WTF. I have barely got past the very first few steps, it just beachballs constantly. And looking at the App it is of course an Intel App (Intuit hasn’t bothered to update the app to work on Apple Silicon even this many years into the Apple Silicon transition).

Now I see other people having problems online, but none as severe, but I bet it is m2 Ultra that is throwing a wrench in the works since Intuit can’t be bothered to make an Apple Silicon version of software and still release Intel only software when there isn’t a single Intel Mac in existence.

I tried contacting customer support, but got no help, so I bought H&R Block since it is Apple Silicon as of this year, and it even imported my tax file from Intuit.

So goodbye Turbtotax. I have always thought you were a joke and barely functional on Mac, but you finally went too far.
