Michiana - let's try a different approach. Go to Content in the top ribbon->My Content->Add Item->From your computer, select the zipped shapefile, Add Item. If successful, this will create a hosted feature layer. Then you can click "Open in Map Viewer" to see the layer in a web map. What is the result? Please advise.

Dear Robert

I am able to upload the hosted layer, howver when I open in mapviewer it is sending me locations that are way out of Defiance County Ohio.

It is showing layers from Cameroon.

But I know the data is from Defiance county Ohio and I can verify that in mapshapper as in the second image below.
