Final checks are telling me "Eligible Sec 179 property should be blanks. It only applies to current year assets." What does this mean? I sold the property on 1/13/17.

You should be able to uncheck the box in the review. It just means that it's not eligible for section 179 this year.

I'm stuck at this point too.  I keep trying to change it to No or Blank but every time I hit continue it just brings me back to that same screen.

Ran into same problem. Huge company full of engineers and they still haven't fixed this bug, given it's 04/17/2018 and it's the latest version of the software.

I am stuck on this step too, it is clearly a software bug, I keep select no entry, but comeback with error and box been check again.

So I finally got this figured out, but it took a 3 hour call with someone from TurboTax.  I can't give the exact details because I don't remember all the steps, but ultimately I went into the Tools -> Delete Forms section.  For some reason there was a form that was being reviewed that was invisible in this section that was causing the error.  After deleting about a dozen different forms it made the form giving the error re-appear, and I was able to delete it.  Once that form was deleted all the forms I had just deleted reappeared so I didn't have to re-enter all the information.  

Wish I could give better directions everyone, but hopefully this helps a little.

go to "View" tab; select the form to delete; go to "Forms" tab; select "Delete Form" to remove the trouble form.
