The macros and calories remaining don’t match. (45 carbs, 50 fat, 17 protein, 478 calories.). How can that be? I have the deduct fiber setting turned on.

You are probably using incorrect food database entries. MFP doesn't calculate total calories based on macros: macros per food item are added up and calories per food item are added up, no relation between the two in the database.
Other possibility: alcohol has calories but those calories don't come from fats, carbs or protein.2
