5.0 out of 5 stars I had no problem using this on Mac Ventura OS
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2023
I have used HR Block tax software for at least 10 years. I delayed buying this year because of negative reviews saying the 2022 tax software would not work with the Mac Ventura OS, which I have on my desktop (Safari Version 16.3). I did some research on the problems people said they were having with the software on some online forums and found that every year people say they have problems with the HR Block software and cannot make it work on their computer. Because in past years HR Block had always worked for me and because it was so cheap ($15 for Basic version), I went ahead and purchased the download from Amazon.

I had no problem downloading the software from Amazon. I had no problem updating the software once it was on my computer. The software correctly captured data from my prior tax returns for input on this year's form. I had no problem entering my tax info and saving it. I had no problem using the software to print a paper copy on my home printer. I also created a PDF and saved it to my documents using the software. I e-filed my taxes using the software and in 5 minutes got a message that my return had been accepted by the IRS. So from my experience the HR Block Tax Software works with Ventura OS. I cannot speak to the problems other reviewers say they had because I had none. If you purchase this product I hope your results match mine.

I received no pay or benefit for writing this review. I am nearly 70 years old and I am not a software or computer wiz by any definition. I haven't received my tax refund from IRS yet (It has only been 48 hours), but if there is a problem with my refund associated with the HR Block software, I will let you know.

Not sure why people can't find the download link and leave negative comments. The instructions provided on the download page are clear. They also appear on the confirmation email after purchase.

H&R Block is really easy to use and I have been using it for almost 20 years with no problem (used to be called Taxcut before). Never had a problem. Basic version works for me fine. Straightforward entry of salaries, interest, dividends, capital gains, etc. Never had a problem.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good product - doesn't work correctly with MacOS Ventura
Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2023
I've used H&R Block download for several years and have always had a good experience. This year I replaced my 10 year old MacBook Air with a new one that had the new Ventura operating system. This resulted in two problems with using the H&R Block software.

One problem occurred after I filled in all of my tax information. At the end, I got to the question about getting the state tax software. When I hit "skip" the software crashed and I lost all of my work for the evening. I started again, and the software immediately crashed once more. On the third try, I saved the file after each step, and got to the end with no further issues. In prior years I've never had a problem, so learned this year to save my work frequently. H&R Block doesn't have an autosave function or keep a temporary file in the event of a crash.

The second problem occurred at the end when I went to print the return, prior to submitting it electronically. The file would not print correctly (either to my printer or to "pdf".). The fonts were gigantic and only about 1/8th of the information would show on the printed page (both printer and pdf versions). I couldn't shrink the text or fix the problem, so I finally re-downloaded the tax software to my old MacBook Air (MacOS Big Sur v.11.7), transferred my tax return file to the old computer, and everything worked and printed fine.

I see that the product description on Amazon now specifies which operating systems work, and Ventura is not listed. When I bought the tax software a couple of months ago I thought it read something like "Sierra Version xx or higher". Or maybe I just assumed or didn't read close enough....

Anyway, be aware that there currently is a glitch with Mac OS Ventura.

1.0 out of 5 stars Continually crashed and under calculated my under payment penalty by $116!
Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2023
I used this software from the first release which was called Tax Cut around 20 years ago. The 2022 edition of this program crushed so much, I had to save after every entry. I was using a Mac Mini M1 chip. It miscalculated my under payment penalty by $116.00! I received a letter from the IRS with a bill for this amount. I will be importing all of my data into Turbo Tax, next tax season, and never using this software again!
