In 2019 I tried to do my taxes on TurboTax, but when I got to the last page to send them out, it kept telling me I had to fix something and wouldn’t let me send it. I tried to figure it out for an hour or so, but I guess I never did because I recently got a letter from my state tax asking me to pay a little over $350 (I’m pretty sure that if my taxes were filed I would have to pay less than the $350, but I really just don’t know what I’m doing). My question is, what do I do about my old taxes? I don’t think the federal taxes ever contacted me so I’m not sure what to do there.

If you did not e-file the 2019 tax return and did not print sign and mail it in instead, then your 2019 return was not filed at all. The only way to file a 2019 return now is to print it, sign it and date it in ink and mail it in.
You will be able to access the return you started by using the exact same account and user ID that you used when you started it. But you can no longer use online software for any further changes.
Online tax preparation and e-filing for 2019 returns is now permanently closed.
Now it is too late to use online software or to e-file. If you have any changes/corrections at all to make to your 2021 return, you now have to complete it using desktop software, which you must download to a full PC or Mac (not to a mobile device).Then you need to print, sign and mail it.
If you already paid for your online software you can ask customer support for a download of the desktop software.
They are available from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Pacific time Monday-Friday.

If you are getting a refund, there is no penalty for filing late. If you owe tax due, then file and pay the amount due as shown on the Form 1040, but expect a bill later from the IRS for the penalty and interest you will owe. Only the IRS will calculate this—TurboTax will not calculate it.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Federal and state returns must be in separate envelopes and they are mailed to different addresses. Read the mailing instructions that print with your tax return carefully so you mail them to the right addresses.
