Should I file an amended return?

I'm so confused right now.

 

I finished my taxes with TurboTax, filed, and received my refund about 2 days ago. I had to look a little something up in TurboTax, so I reopened the program, changed absolutely nothing, and my little "refund monitor" had changed, saying that I was owed an additional refund.

 

Great! I'm all for it! First of all, why did TurboTax miss this in the first place? Secondly, how should I file the amendment, when I didn't actually change anything (at least to my knowledge...maybe an update or something changed something for me)?

 

Anyway, it's a significant amount of money, so I'd hate to see it go! What are the steps I need to take? Seems like TurboTax is saying I'm only owed more Federal Money, and not State Money. When I click the "Amend a return button" the Federal Refund ticker is solidly in the positive, while the state return ticker is at $0.
