Go back and edit any 1099-INT with box 8 $$ in it, and any 1099-DIV with any box 12 $$ in it.
On a page or two AFTER the main form for each one, there will be a page that asks you to identify...which state's bonds the $$ came from......and if you indicated MI for all of it, then that's you made an error.
1) For the 1099-INT, with box 8 $$ in it, you would only indicate it was all MI,...only if you hold ALL MI bonds, and none form other states.
2) for a 1099-DIV with $$ in box 12, again you would only indicate it was all MI,...only if your bond funds only held MI-related Muni bonds...and that's unlikely

3) When editing those follow-up questions, if the amounts are relatively small, it may not be worth the effort to break out the MI-related bond $$, and can be simpler to mark it all as "Multiple States", by selecting the first bullet point, then going to the end of the long list of states, and selecting the final "Multiple States". Then it all becomes MI-taxable.
4) If instead, you want to break-out the MI-$$ form the rest, then you select the second bullet point, then indicate what $$ amount belonged to MI (and any US Territories), and all the rest of the $$ are assigned as a lump amount as "Multiple States" (see below example for an NC resident):

Thank you Steam Train for your response.
I am doing what you say to do. I've marked over the actual dollar amounts but I broke out the NC vs. all other states amounts where indicated.
I even edited the second panel to remove NC and put all dollars in multiple states. However, the NC section treated the full amount as being from NC. There is no place in the NC panel for "Additions to Income" (for NC) as shown by these two screenshots.
The NC Schedule S worksheet should list the "multiple states" amount in line 1, column 1, but that box is empty and can't be edited.
Any ideas?
I deleted the Sched S worksheet; it was regenerated like you said but with no changes. Per your instructions, I deleted the entire NC return. Then I created a new NC return and re-entered the nominal amount of data need. No change, the NC return is not adding any of my municipal bond interest to my NC income. Here's the new schedule S, part A.
Now what?
I'm about to ask for my money back from Intuit and switch to 1040.com.
