You entered Pennsylvania withholding greater than 50% of Pennsylvania wages. Please review your W-2 and change the incorrect entry, what does this mean?

It is saying that W-2 Box 17 (state tax withholding) is more than 50% of Box 16 (state wages).

Go to Federal >Wages and Income.  Review the W-2 entries for any typos, especially commas and decimal points. If the  numbers you keyed in are indeed correct, you will haver to file by mail.
