A:AnswerI'm new to Chromebooks in 2019 (I bought my first computer in 1971) but MY understanding is that the yearly Turbo Tax software program is NOT downloadable into a Chromebook. You CAN download the yearly, annual Turbo Tax APP onto a Chromebook, then process your tax return online through their app......BUT, that online program is VERY different from the program that's on the Turbo Tax CD that you buy, download onto your COMPUTER, and then work on your return on your computer, without having to be online.
I've used Turbo Tax, in its CD form, since it was first available (and still do each year), and I had my own Accounting and Tax Practice for almost 25 years. I like the CD version. One year, I decided to try their online version to prepare our return. That version was SO different from their CD version, that it took me almost 3 times as long to prepare our tax return, AND I was not sure AT ALL if it would be accurate and correct. It was also very confusing, as I did NOT have the Forms that I was so familiar with. With their online version, I had no way to confirm that what I had entered in their online program, was actually entered correctly.
I finally contacted Turbo Tax Customer Service, and after trying everything that I was told, I gave up on their online version..... bought their CD version, and started over on that year's tax return. I buy their CD version each year, rather than deal with their online version.
Hope this helps. (Hopefully, their online/app version is better than it was when I tried it, AND much easier to use). I will continue to use the Turbo Tax CD version.
A:AnswerI can confirm, I backed up my user folder from my MacBook with this drive. No drivers or installation necessary. Just plug it in and go. It DOES require 2 USB ports.
