Michael, I do not have WIN8, so cannot test possible problems/solutions for you.
However, here are a couple of general points: You must have Internet Explorer installed, even if it is not your default browser. Under the Legacy Home Tab in Legacy, Click Options>Options>Internet Options and set to “Allow....” I trust that you are using a PC or Laptop which has the full WIN8 as some versions of WIN8 are not compatible with Legacy.

I do this (from the Legacy family view screen. 1. Click on View 2. Select Master Lists 3. Select Location 4. Click on Show Map I get the message: "It appears you are not online. Make sure you are connected to the internet and try again." I can assure you that I am connected to the internet when I am trying this. I can get to the Legacy Home Page and other websites. Also I cannot do the suggestion in the Help section "You can have Legacy run through all of your locations automatically geo-coding what it can by clicking the Geo-code button and then choosing Geo-code all unresolved locations through Bing Maps" There is no option to automatically do the Geo-code thing. I am using Windows 8 with Internet Explorer 10. I am also using a wireless USB to connect to the internet via Verizon (VZAccess) Has anybody else experienced this problem? I have written to Legacy Family Support and they have not been able to help. Thank you.
