OMG! I figured it out!!
I'm not one to quit. After a good cry I went back to it and methodically uninstalled and reinstalled files, moved files around and compressed and uncompressed runtimes.
The only thing I hadn't tried was the sky dome so out of desperation I deleted it and tried to inject the INJ and the MOR files. It worked!
I do have the right version of Aiko...Free Base + maps and morphs = complete Aiko
I have my Poser set to open with a sky dome in the preview window for relections. I tilt it up so it's out of the way and not acting like a background. Other times I make it invisible.
However, it seems that in order to get Miette to work you have to have a 100% clean preview window with nothing but Aiko and the ground plane. If you have anything else in there, even a sky dome that is invisible, the Miette INJ and MOR files result in the 3rd picture I posted in this thread.
If you start with a 100% empty scene except for the ground plane and then add Aiko, the INJ and MOR files work fine.
This is not a user error because you should be able to inject figure morphs with other things in the scene IE: a sky dome: I do it all of the time with the other characters I have for V3, SP3, A3, M3 etc. and haven't had a problem until now.
For some reason there is a quirk with Miette that demands that Aiko be the only figure/prop in the preview window in order for the INJ and the MOR files to apply properly.
What this quirk is I have no idea, but it's there. At least I know what the problem is now and that I am not crazy or stupid.
This is a very valid problem and not a "user error" one because many people start with a sky dome or inject their morphs with other things in the scene and it shouldn't make a difference with how the figure's morphs are applied if the figure is the one that is selected..
Thanks to everyone who tried to help me especially Anniebel for not losing patience :)
