Downloaded H&R block tax software on windows machine, how can I transfer it

I bought the tax software on Dell's software sight, I made sure that the software was Mac compatible. When I went to download the software, I found out that it could not downloaded on a mac:( Others had success downloading it to a windows machine and then just transferring it to the mac. I transferred the zip file to the mac and tried to open it with no success, it just had a text box with a bunch of jibberish on it. I opened the zip file on the windows machine and tranferred the unzipped program to the mac, but same thing happened. The program only has a .exe file, don't I need to find a .dmg file? I assumed that when I unzipped it their would be a .exe and a .dmg, but it is not so. Anyone have any advice?
Thanks,
Jeff

A ZIP file that contains a .EXE file is Windows software. I would suggest contacting the seller of the software for their help in providing you with a Mac version.

H&R Block tax software searches Time Machine when updating

How would I prevent H&R Block's tax software updater from searching my Time Machine for existing installs? Their support forum suggests this have been an on-going problem for a few years.
I have turned off Time Machine and ejected the drive. That's pretty annoying. I expect if the H&R updater were to chance files on the Time Machine drive it would be a bad thing.
I'm using the 2014 deluxe version tax software, and Yosemite.

Heh. No. It will search all mounted drives so you need to eject them if you don't want it to do that.
It's still using Installer VISE, right? And polling pretty much everything? I actually complained to them FOUR YEARS AGO about that - NOBODY ON THE PLANET USES VISE ANYMORE! Still, bottom of the barrel with software quality... you need to live with it or eject the drives prior to running their updater.
Since you bought the software in January, expect 10+ updates between now and April 15th

My laptop was stolen a few months ago, I have all of my music and photos saved to my iphone. I just got a new laptop today, and downloaded itunes and signed into my old account. How can I transfer my stuff from my iphone to my laptop?

Please help, I don't want to lose my pictures or music!

Music purchased from the iTuens store can be transferred using iTunes. However, music from other sources can only be transferred from your phone using 3rd party software such as PhoneView (mac) or Touch Copy (pc or mac). These articles will show you how to start syncing with your new computer with minimal or no data loss:

For the music, you can transfer your music from your old computer to your new computer using an external HHD, once the music are in your new computer, open up itunes and add your music folder to the itunes library, do the same with videos.
For your apps, log into your your itunes account and there you will find your "purchased" apps list. Cilck on purchase to see the list and download them again back to your computer.

If you got a .exe file, that is the Windows version of the software. You'll need to contact whoever you bought it from about downloading the Mac version.

I keep getting the message: "what should firefox do with this file" in Windows XP every time I want to download a file, e.g., adobe, excel, etc. How can this annoying message be deleted? The check box to "open file automatically" does not work!

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

Our Band purchased Logic Pro and it was loaded to one member's Macbook Pro. Unfortunately, he passed away with cancer in May. How can we transfer the ownership and the software (it was downloaded) to a new user's Macbook?

Hi Kurt,
The Mac IIci is not even powering on at all. Tried again with wih a tested power cable and no luck.
I think it's best that take this issue to the Older Hardware Community. Not only did I see a fair number of replacement parts for the IIci avaiable online, but there also vintage external floppy drives as well. I'm not giving up.
Thank you for your time and interest in helping.

They work just fine. whatever issues you have are specific, but without proper system info, browser info and other details nobody can even begin to guess.
