I'm filing as single, but on my California Tax Return on line 7 TurboTax put a "0" instead of a "1", how do I manually change this error?

So is box 1 at the top checked for Single?  Any other boxes checked like box 6?

So can someone else claim you like your parent?  Then you do not get your own personal exemption.

Yes, my parent claims me as a dependent. Thank you for your help!
