In Proseries, under Paid Preparer, it lists me as 3rd Party Dsgn, but on Schedule 6, it answers the question "Can the IRS speak with somone…" NO. Shouldn't that say yes?

No.

From the 1040 Instructions:

If you want your paid preparer to be your third party designee, check the "3rd Party Designee" box on page 1 of Form 1040. Do not complete Schedule 6.
