Hello John, OK, it installed fine, restarted fine, but postgres does not appear in Activity Monitor. I can't use Creat User in the Client tools (or any other tool). It says: Database connection failed: could not connect to server: Connection refused Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432? pgAdmin III likewise can't connect to the postgres server. Cheers!
