I am having the same issue.
Tried manual updating as suggested. The update worked successfully, however still unable to Transmit State return.
I have Transmitted Federal return alone, and it worked fine as was accepted by the IRS.
Tried again to Transmit just the State and still getting the circular loop. This is very annoying.
I have paid for the State Transmittal, and unable to actually Transmit electronically (e-file)
Options and Expectations;
1.) Intuit will provide a software solution and inform this Support chain (or Support forum) with a Target Date of when it will be available.
2.) Intuit will provide a refund for the cost for State efile, and notify how to request and obtain the refund/ Credit Card charge reversal.
