Thanks, again, @HeatherPLO ...
But you've come up against the crux of my problem. The file that TurboTax says was accepted is the one that crashed and won't open. So I can't follow the instructions to check it in TT. That's why I went to the irs.gov option, but I can't see anything there either.
So, even though TT says it's been accepted, (having already created an amended return that I can't "un-amend" for some reason, and yes, I've followed the instructions AND spoken to a TT representative), I'm going to do my taxes for a third time (as an original filing) and move on.
Thanks for the info.
