I have a 95 F250 5.8/E4OD/2WD. It holds well over 15qts. I do have an aftermarket aluminum pan, but it is a 2WD pan.
If the transmission can't pump what little fluid you put in is, the pump is probably not working. That can happen if the converter was not installed properly.

How many quarts total did you put in it?
There is NOTHING electrical that can keep it from engaging in gear. Nothing the solenoids do or do not do can make this happen. I think you don't have enough fluid to make it work.

i had 13 qts in it and it didn't move on dipstick apparently the pump is not working. i loosened the convertor nuts and the convertor moves so i am pretty sure i got it on all the way. sounds like i have to take it back out to see what problem is

i was pretty sure i got it on right i loosened the converter bolts and the converter moves. i seen a post that said to check that. don't know if that means anything but i figure i have to remove the tranny and check it to be 100% i ran it awhile to add fluid hope i didn't hurt it
