Activated TTBI2024 asking for activation again, won't accept the key

AnalyticMoose — Tue, 04 Mar 2025 22:26:21 GMT

Hi,

I have purchased TurboTax Business Incorporated 2024 from Costco, and received activation key in email. I then downloaded the said software from Intuit website, installed it on my Windows 11 PC and used activation code from email - all as Costco email suggested.

I even did my T2 return half way, but had to pause for a couple of days and now when I launch TTBI to continue it's asking to be activated! What gives? What's even worse it will not accept the activation code I used, because naturally "All available activations for that code have been used.Error code: 603"

Please advise.

I have activated my Turbo Tax Deluxe 2024. I want to start preparing my return but when I try to open TT it takes me to the activation screen.

@Coconut21 To activate your TurboTax Online version please visit this link. Select that " I have an account" ,log into your account and proceed to the second step by adding your 16 digit activation code to review and activate the TurboTax Online product.

I have been using the 2024 desktop Turbo tax, when I try to open it, it wants to be activated, but it already is. It asks for the key and I can't find it. It worked fine up until now. Can you help?

@cherylaileen I've resent the receipt for your purchase of TurboTax Desktop. It will have the license code on it.
