Error Code 54

[dmanresu]

I successfully e-filed my federal 1041. I get an Error Code 54 when I attempt to file my 541 with California State.

The Error Code pop-up states that my Turbotax software is not up to date, and that updating the software will solve the problem. Upon checking for updates, I am told that I have the latest version. 

I called Turbotax support but the individual kept thinking that I was using an on-line product and needed to clear my cache...

Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

Since we can't know your individual computer/system configuration in this forum, all we can do is pass on what has worked for other users.

Since you've tried uninstall/reinstall, are you running as Administrator?  All TurboTax and related files on your C drive?  Anti-virus software turned off? Manual Update?
