I have Handgrip and my installation was with no problems when i had my G5 mac.with Tiger and then i recently changed to a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard and it was with no problems.

I read your message. And iknow what your problem is.. The D AZ installer creates a default path.. and that path might not exist in your mac. So i usually just change the path and install it on my desktop. Then i can move the files to whatever folder it needs to be in the Aplications/DAZ 3d/ folder, or in the DOCUMENTS/Daz3d/ folder.( You will know because the intalled folder in the dektop has the names of the daz folders the files go in)
