DAZ Install Manager acts crazy!
I recently bought some items from DAZ! Everything worked ok for most of the purchased items and they all show up in DAZ´s "Smart Content" window as well in DAZ´s preset, material, poses, props, shaping and surface windows!
But three of my latest purchases also installed by "DAZ Install Manager" never showed up as expected in DAZ Studio 4.6!
The purchased products are, "LoREZ Dogs, "The Kids 4 Base" and "Kids at Play Moves Vol 1."
I just don´t get it and since DAZ file structure and folder hierarchy must be one of the absolute worst ever in 3D history it doesn´t matter how many tatty and sometimes very old tutorials I watch or read, it doesn´t make me smarter or clarify a thing.
Anyone ever experienced something like this? Anyone have any suggestions?

Older content won't always appear in the Smart Content pane - just load it through the Content Library pane for now (it may be updated at some point so that it will also appear in Smart Content).
Hi Richard!
I read an explanation of Kraig Hausman that mentioned the same thing you say, but felt that I probably would need a doctor hat to understand all details connected to this... excuse rather than a solution to a problem.
Anyway I did as you said and loaded it from the Content Library. There´s a boy character showing up and it looks ok but there are no shapes or morphs available. I thought this item would at least have one more shape for a girl? What am I doing wrong here or have I missed something.
About the mocap files they are all delivered as BVH files, not as Aniblocks but thats not a problem since they are easy to edit either in DAZ or a BVH editor.

The base doesn't have many morphs, it does have a head morph for girls (the body is not changed) - however, they need to be injected into the figure from the Pose library - DAZ's Kids 4>Moprh Injections as I recall, but I've moved mine around. Most of the morphs are separate - http://www.daz3d.com/the-kids-4-morphs .
