What content ?, a link to it might help.
DS4 has 2 ways to display content, the Smart Content tab and the Content Library tab, Smart Content is a content manager database that requires content without any Metadata (only DAZ supply this on new products atm) to be manually added to it before it'll show. The Content Library is the old way (and still the best way IMHO) to view your content, it shows it as it is on your harddrive and doesn't require you to jump through hoops to get it to show.

My Content is the new name for the default Content directory. Not sure what you are installing, but alot of it for Genesis will go into "My Content>Presets"

I have downloaded some free stuff from MostDigital Creations and another series called Cabaret by chacornac from Renderosity free stuff.They are zipped files and are all morphs for Genesis.When I unzip them into My Library they do not seem to exist. Cheers

Try unzipping them into the same directory where you are downloading to -then open the unzipped directory. You will find directory "My Content" there. Open that one and you will see "presets". Drag that directory over to the DAZ Studio "My Content" and letting it go. It should ask you if you want to copy the new Presets to the other presets - say yes.
After it copies, be sure to go in to the content manager and have it "scan known directories" to accept the new files.
