What product are you using?  Are you using desktop software on a Mac by any chance?

Desktop on an HP.

Have you tried a manual update?

Unless someone else has a suggestion in the forum on Friday, you may end up having to phone TurboTax Support.  But they would likely want you to try a manual update first to see if that makes any difference.    I don't know what product (personal or business) you are using, so I'll give both links, and also a FAQ on phoning TurboTax Support.

ADDENDUM:

NOTE:  The manual update doesn't update any state program.   If it turns out that a state program is causing your update problem, also see if the following helps:

Otherwise, phone TurboTax Support as mentioned above.

I am getting this same failed validation error using Turbo Tax premier.  I tried to transmit only the Federal Return and it won't work.  Didn't even try to transmit PA return yet.  I have done a manual update and the information provided by customer service was of no help.  This is frustrating.

I gave it a try the next day and the transmission was successful.
