New computer. Old computer had windows 7, new one has windows 8. On the old computer I can open the files, and I can download fillable forms and save them. On the new computer I can not open some files, and the fillable forms will only save empty, not completed.
Chrome, but I also tried it with Explorer. They will open from a webpage but not from an email attachment. From the email attachment I get the error message that says if this page does not go away, that I need to install/upgrade Adobe reader. But I have done that, and uninstalled it and installed it again. As far as what the browser is using, I don't know. Someone told me that Windows 8 has it's own pdf viewer. I am sure this is my technical incompetence, and is probably an easy fix. I just can't figure it out on my own.

This means that you are using a browser that uses its own (incompatible) PDF viewer, not the Adobe Reader plugin.
To configure Chrome or Firefox see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html
I don't know about Windows 8, or if/how its PDF viewer is integrated in Internet Explorer.
