Enter/Re-enter Tuition Payments

I'm entering 2019 Education Expenses for a dependent on the "Did xx pay for books or materials to attend school?" page but the Tuition line shows $0 and if I click on the hyperlink for help, it tells me "you entered this number in earlier". How do I go back to edit and enter the correct Tuition payment?

Start by going to the Education section of your return using these steps:

On the top row of the TurboTax online screen, click on Search (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax locate the search box in the upper right corner)
This opens a box where you can type in “education” (be sure to enter exactly as shown here) and click the magnifying glass (or for CD/downloaded TurboTax, click Find)
The search results will give you an option to “Jump to education”
Click on the blue “Jump to education” link

Then, if you are not prompted to enter your 1098-T, go through the entire education expenses section of your return until you reach the screen titled “Your Education Expenses Summary”, then follow these steps:

Click Edit next to the student name.
On the screen titled “Here’s your Education Summary”, click Edit beside Tuition.
Enter the information from your Form 1098-T.
