pdf fillable fields not allowing data entry when on iPad

Question

We have been using pdf fillable files for years and now all of the sudden the fillable fields do not allow for entry when viewed on an iPad.  Is there a fix?  I saw a work around from OneDrive that has you hold down on the file until a blue check mark shows up to keep the file from opening in the OneDrive viewer.  This seemed to work for about a week, but now we are back to the files not being able to inset data into the fillable fields.  This again is only on the iPad and works fine on a PC.

I have a similar issue. I have downloaded some fillable files and works fine on PC and I saved them in Dropbox. Yet when I access them from my IPad's Adobe Acrobat, the fillable field are frozen. If I export that to your Fill and Sign app, the previous info I typed in was gone, though I am able to fill in in the blanks. It will be very helpful if I can keep the info from the PC and able to edit it on iPad. If a paid subscription is needed, please let me know. Thanks
