    This ids my setting, it exclude three drivers. If I want to excude a drive from the exclusion list (I know, double negations), I select it and click the [-] button.

    To get to that setting I just click "Options..." in the System Panel.



    And after I removed StudExtra,,,

    Double negatives! Does that mean that list is to back-up those devices?

    Because I want all my external drives to be copies, along with whatever may be saved on my internal hard drive.

    So I selected the drive Seagate (DIM files) and clicked on it, and only the + symbol activates, but I click it and my only option is to exclude it still from back-up. And the bottom bottons on the screen are 'Cancle' and 'Exclude'. 

    So, is my problem the MacOS is not recognizing my external hard drives? 

    My flatmate has an iMac same era as mine, is mostly a Windows guy, but has a BS in Computer Science and he hasn't been able to figure out Time Machine.

    Are we totally looking at this wrong?

    Sorry about the late response, I am not feeling well and have been off the computer most of today.

    The list shows "Exluded from backup", by dafault TM backups every drive.

    I opened the finder window and looked at the back-up drive and yesterday's backup only included the Demon and Macintosh - Data. It is missing Demon 2, and Seagate.

    Today's backup still have three hours till it will be finished. So I won't be able to see if it picked them up until then.

    Note at 15:51 MT: The backup is still running, and for the past few hours, I have been told "About 2 hours remaining" with 85.7% done. I think it is working and hit my shader collection or the Runtime folder.

    Sorry, if it was answered few times, but i can't find an answer relevant to me.

    I was trying to add a model manually, downloaded a zip file, which content I need to merge with DAZ3D library, so i found a path in content manager in the application as follows:

    /Users/username/Documents/DAZ 3D/Studio

    bash-3.2$ ls -l

    total 0

    drwxr-xr-x@ 4 username  staff  128 Nov  1 19:27 My Daz Connect Library

    drwxr-xr-x@ 2 username  staff   64 Nov  1 19:27 My Library

    drwxr-xr-x@ 2 username  staff   64 Nov  1 19:27 Render Library

    So it supposed to be my library, okay, problem is all those folders are empty. and my attempt to add a content there failed.

    How exactly can i locate true library path? why there is no any kind of tool to install a content? Am i a sole user who downloads content for 3d?

    Thanks a lot, any help would be most appreciated.

    If I understand you correctly you're looking for a program to install purchased products into your runtimes in the correct places. I use dittogui for that.

  • Hey all! 

    I'm currently running Daz Studio 4.22 on my m2 mac mini with macos 14.7 (sonoma). It's pretty stable apart from the known menue issues. 

    I would like to update to macos 15 soon. Is Daz (4.22 or 4.23) stable on macos sequoia? 

    Cheers :)

    For the menu issues I recommend DS 4.23.0.4 (Public Beta), but I haven't run macOS 15 on any machine I use intensively for DS so I cant say how stable it it, 

  • Upgraded to 4.23.0.4 Public Beta myself. Runs stable plus IMO resolves those menu issues since the menus are no longer part of the menubar but rather residing in the application window. Recently upgraded to 15.1 (Sequoia). Didn't experience any bigger problems with Studio so far.

  • Okie dokie! 

    Thanks for the info both! I'll wait for the full release of 4.23.0.4 and then upgrade both Daz and macos :)
