Best to just delete the 1099-MISC from your tax file and re-enter it, carefully.

See: How do I delete forms in TurboTax Online?

After deleting the1099-MISC, log out of the program. When you log back in, use the Delete a Form tool (List of Forms in My Return) to confirm it has been removed from your return. Then, go back to the Retirement Income and Social Security interview to add the 1099-MISC back in. 

(Depending on the 1099-MISC, you may have created other forms or worksheets just by entering it in the first place. If so, you will have to delete thematic the same time).
