Thanks. Good news for those who use CC on Windows (I know it already works on Mac). I personally use CS6 Extended, though. :)
...nothing is showing with the normal blue highlight in my content tab even though Task Manager indicates that the CMS is running.
PostgreSQL or Valentina? Is the content just not highlighted as new, or is there another problem?
..PostgreSQL
Is your content showing in Products/Categories/Smart Content?
...none of the smart categories are showing in the content tab even after clicking the Database icon.
This just occurred after updating to the latest version of 4.6
Was the PostgreSQL CMS working previously?
What security software do you use?
When DS is running are there 7 instances of postgres.exe in the Task Manager?
Go to Content Library -> Options and do a 'Stop CMS' followed by a 'Start CMS'. I've found that if I start Studio immediately after stopping DIM I end up attaching to the Postgres that DIM has started to shut down. It pays to wait a couple of minutes between stopping DIM and starting Studio.
I was having problems installing it to the proper location until I noticed it was nested inside my last installation. The folder name changed again so I uninstalled, changed the folder name of the DAZ 64 folder to what the installer was using. Installed again and the new DS was found.
...1. Yes
2. Norton along with Malware Bytes and Sophos (though it previously ran fine with these)
3. No only the Content Management Server.exe

...I don't see any "Stop/Start" CMS controls there There is a tab that is titled CMS Settings but all that has is a selection called "Cluster Directory" and a field with a port number in it.

That means PostgreSQL isn't running, only Valentina.
Shut down both DS and DIM and give them a few minutes to make sure there isn't a "stop postgreSQL" action still going on. Then launch DS and see if postgres..exe starts up in Task Manager. Also make sure Norton is still set to allow PostgreSQL and DS to communicate.
...will give that a try. have an appointment so will do that when I get back.
Between having FF crash and burn seriously on me this morning, still trying to get refraction and water to look right in a scene I am working on, and now this, been a busy day of troubleshooting.
Note that closing DAZ Studio takes a few, even after the program appears to be closed.
Another possible scenario is what happened in my case:
Installing through DIM it first removed the existing DAZ Studio; then I got "Installation Failed". In my case this was because Administrative permissions had not yet been implemented. So then there was No DAZ Studio; but fortunately I was able to install it on a second attempt.

...OK the database icons for Products and Categories shows up in the content tab however nothing is in any of the folders.
There are also no "PostgreSQL" listings showing up in Tsk Manager, instead I have six processes listed with the name "conhost.exe"

Glad to hear the CC compatible version of Photoshop bridge is getting closer.. :D

I have issues with the last build of DAZ Studio Pro 4.6.3.52
when editing or painting Weight maps , the weight maps cursor vanishing after some movements and no future edition possible unless you restart , I tried like many times on different figures the same issue
Yup, that happened to me. I couldn't even use it in symmetry mode as it would crash DS to the desktop. I did report it and this AM they wrote me and deemed it solved... yea, we shall see about that. I didn't mention about the cursor so Cath PLEASE put in a report about this and maybe will have these two truly solved. I plum forgot to mention that as its happened in past builds too so I just thought it was the way it was...
...well looks like my entire DB was wiped out with the update. Picked up this week's freebie and that is the only item which shows up in Smart Content. I am not skilled with fixing this sort of stuff and not about to uninstall and reinstall everything I purchased here since day one.
If the new item is working, just reimport metadata.
...how do I do that? Again I'm not "up" on all of this kind of stuff.
Import database:
From The Content Library pane's menu icon, select "Content DB Maintenance" > "Re-Import Metadata...". Press Accept.
(That's just the import steps for the database, not the export that one would normally have already run prior to this if you were doing a full export and import to back up and restore or move from one pc to another. I also have the following notes written down that may or may not apply after you do this:
TODO VERIFY In the newer beta, I also needed to do "Consolidate file references" followed by "Scan known directories for files" followed by a right-click and selecting Refresh from the mouse menu to eliminate duplicates that appeared in unassigned. )
If you didn't install any content after PostgreSQL all you need to do is uninstall it .
Ok thanks for the confirm (sorry for the really slow response). The only question left is IF I do have a problem and want to revert, the steps I mentioned above should get everything working again?

Yes, exported user data can be imported by both PostgreSQL and Valentina.
I thought as much but wanted to be sure. Thanks for the confirmation.
I updated daz studio and for me it gives me an error about a dream light for missing and everything loads white with texts no window columns or anything gonna uninstall and try reinstalling and hope that helps
Edited: Nevermind it must of messed up installing went to uninstall from install manager and it was still in install part
I've been having some trouble with the more recent builds giving me 'daz studio not responding' messages, and hanging. This has increased more than it used to.
I also have experienced slowness loading basic figures like M6.
I'm not sure what causes this to happen.
Make sure DS is closed (check in Task Manager) before installing.
Does it happen with G2M as well, or only M6? Any changes to your hardware or system when this started?
I will get the Not Responding message when loading a set that has many texture files, often larger more detailed sets do it than others. But I've not noticed a change in figure loads. The Not Responding on loads is the TDLmake doing the texture conversions and my HD is set to auto sleep so it causes that sometimes when the drive spins up for the file writes to the temp folder. If your on a dual Drive PC it could be the Drive spin up causing the message.
Just a thought.
