Form 1040 Line 12b shows unacceptable value

That's a darn good question. Seems TT has really hosed the 2021 1040 form when it comes to Charitable contributions. I've never seen such a FUBAR as I have this year, They should have had this sorted by now!

I have a feeling they will lose some customers over this.

TurboTax appears to have a bug.  TT filled in $300 for this line although I am married filing jointly.  It should have put in $600.  I finally found the correct filing information that confirmed the $600 for my filing status so I was able to overwrite the TT entry to $600.  Not without some frustrating trial and error.

I've tried all the workarounds indicated here, but every time I run the review check, that box shows up with 300 again and I get the message that '1040 Line 12b shows unacceptable value'.  The TurboTax software needs to be corrected.  The is the only way I see for theist get fixed.
