How do I download state software purchased through turbotax desktop to turbotax desktop on a second computer?

I am trying to finish filing my taxes on a new laptop, but when I opened my 2017 tax filing on turbotax desktop it told me I need to re-purchase a state download that I had already bought for my first computer. Is there any way to just install that state software on my second computer? I already tried going to the "My Downloads" page online but there is nothing there (maybe because I bought the state in the desktop app and not on turbotax.com?). Thanks for the help.

Yes, you can install the state software on more than one computer. Your method of purchasing the state software will not impact your ability to access and download your TurboTax state software on a new computer for Mac:
