Five efile limitation per computer?

My TurboTax Deluxe download allows me to install the software on up to five computers.  I allow both of my daughters to install the software on their computers to do their own taxes.  They then efile their federal returns.

 

Am I still allowed to efile five returns from my computer, or am I now limited to three?

It is 5 e-files per license.  So if two e-files are used on separate computer with the same license the there would only be 3 left on the license.

I submitted 5 e-file returns but two were rejected and I submitted the 2 rejected  returns by mail because I was not able to provide a sufficient fix. Because I ended up not using the efile process for the two that were rejected, am I able to 

efile two additional returns.  If so, how do I do this?

If you have already prepared 5 returns in the software, you won't be allowed to prepare another. Two returns were rejected, the system won't know if you mailed them in due to the rejection. The system only knows that you prepared 5 returns already.  Hope this helps.
