Well now. . .this is a bit of good news for me. . .I still need to learn exactly how this is done manually. . .and how content is installed in Daz. . .and how to import Michael 4 into Poser. . .but it's a start. . .

My Poser path no longer indicates Program Files (86) but states instead User/Public/Documents

So, it would appear mine is kept in Poser 10/Runtime/Libraries/Characters. . .if I were to uninstall Poser and re-install it exactly what directory choice should I make when asked where I want it (the Poser program) installed?

If there is another folder I'm supposed to be installing to, why not tell me where it is, and what it is?

Hborre. . .I should probably explain that each of the install methods illustrated previous were NOT done together. . .they are in order of the attempt; I undid everything each time and tried a new approach so they are all separate examples of each attempt.

Thanks Hborre. . . is this correct? The Edinburgh file is unzipped. . .

This is for Poser. . .I'll ask about Daz once I understand this. . .Oh. . .I have Windows 8

Hi hborre. . .Learned how to once again capture my desk top and open it in photoshop. . .so here are some of the things I have tried: I have color coded the files hoping that will make things clearer;

I have tried these methods for both Poser and Daz (although NOT in Daz with EdinburghM4 as it is strictly Poser). . .I think you can clearly see what I've been trying. . .any clue why none of it works? Thanks again for the help with this.

Hello. . .thanks for the replies. . .I own both Daz and Poser (hence Poser/Daz) and am seeking information on how to install for both. . .and yes, Andy,I can have multiple windows open. . .and hborre, the sites I have purchased from are not as specific as you might imagine or hope them to be. . .I know one of the purchases is only for Poser but the rest claim to be able to work in both platforms. . .I have attempted on many occasions to open and and install the contents of my purchases. . .in fact, the entirety of today was spent doing just that. . .I have gone to Poser (Smith Micro) as well as Daz and in the Runtime folders copied and dropped the files. . .first I dropped everything into it, (runtime into runtime) but that did nothing. . .then I opened the runtime files (libraries,textures, pose, materials etc.) and copies each to its apparent counter-part. . .that did nothing. . .I watched several conflicting you-tube videos (as I have done in the past). . .after 7 hours of coping and pasting and dropping files into folders I gave up. . .I did manage in Daz to get a jpeg image of SAv Aram hair to show up but Daz program could not link the image to any known file. . .and so. . .that's where I'm at. Any suggestions? (I would upload pictures but I no longer know how to print an image of my desk-top screen since Windows 8 was installed)

Hello All. . .as I am about as new as a newbie can be, I am going to ask (what is for me) an essential first question: exactly how, (in minute, easy-to-follow, idiot proof step-by-step instructions) does one (me) install products into Poser/Daz? I realize that this is probably as ridiculous a question as one can ask, but I haven't a single clue as to what I'm doing. . .When I purchase from Daz it is mysteriously and automatically deposited somewhere and shows up when I look for it. . .I have content I have purchased elsewhere (not Daz) but cannot use it as I don't know what to do with it and it doesn't come with instructions detailed enough for me to understand what I am to do and where to find the folders they refer to. . .any and all help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Randall
