I bought Costco Turbotax...no damned CD; only a key....I cannot find where to insert charitable donations, etc., etc. ????,

You have probably logged in to online software instead of the desktop download that you paid for at Costco.

We see people get confused and they keep logging in to online software which will require them to pay at the end.   You need to use the desktop software.   One way to tell if you are using the right software---your tool bar.   Online software has the toolbar in a black vertical column on the left side of the screen.   Desktop software has the tools up on the top of your TT screen.
