  I just dragged it into the body of the message via "attach a file". I did nothing else. I saw no other controls when uploading. Is there something that I should have known?

  The "Image" icon on the toolbar in the message window just had a bunch of HTML stuff - no clue how that stuff works.

  

  Same results. I must be crazy!

  I suspect this is the Mac's protection against foreign code kicking in.

  If it is that issue then you just have to tell the system to allow the installer.

  Huh? I dont think we are talking about the same thing, however I am super hungover

  Im trying to install DAZ with the "DAZStudio_4.16.0.3_Mac64.app" and when I get to the end of the installation, I get the popup "The installation of the DAZ Content Management Service....." I hit the only option "OK". So when I launch DAZ, I get this popup that "A valid PostgreSQL connection could not be found........" and none of my content from the store can be found....actually, there's no content at all because I cant login.

  

  Am I a super rare situation thats gonna have to contact support,

   

  .....because last time i contacted support.............

  That message means you need to install PostgreSQL. It is a seperate installer than Daz Studio. Ocne you install it that should go away. If you are installing with DIM then just type in postgre in the seach box and it will come up.

  I would recommend installing everything using DAZ Install Manager (DIM), and not trying to put together a complete installation yourself from various bits and pieces that makes up a complete installation of DAZ Studio.
