To complete and file a Form 1041 for an Estate or Trust you have to use the TurboTax Business Edition. The Business Edition can only be installed on a Windows based personal computer, not on a Mac or online. The Business Edition cannot be used to complete a personal tax return, Form 1040.
Go to this TurboTax website for the Business Edition - https://turbotax.intuit.com/small-business-taxes/cd-download/
Did you buy Business or Home&Business? Home & Business is only for personal returns that need a Schedule C for self employment. TT Business is not available to do online or on a Mac. You can buy the Windows Desktop program here,

You can have both a personal program and the Business program installed on the same computer at the same time.
Or it seems like you might be in the Online personal version instead of the Desktop Business program. Did you get it installed and activated with the 16 digit License Code?
