Won't file CA state return

I've finished filing federal tax few days ago, and money is already withdrawn by IRS. However, today when I wanted to file CA state tax (and paid 25$ for it) this is the message shown by Turbotax CD download version and it won't let me continue:

 

E-file requires federal return

To e-file, you must also select the federal return. Click back to select federal and any other returns you'd like to file.

 

But when I go back there is nothing to select, federal return is shown as already filed.

Please help solve this bug!

    I installed the update and the tax return was successfully filed. Thanks!

    Also, all updates have been installed, computer rebooted, both tax returns reviewed for errors.... Nothing helped so far.

    @stamenovigor  They just updated the software today. It appears the issue is now resolved as I was able to file my NYS return!
