How do I add morphs to Genesis models?

I have the full morph kits for Genesis but I never see them activated when I am working with them.
I always the the basic morphs of X,Y, Z and scale; almost nothing else.
How activate the body, head, ear, hands and other morphs?

    I have some morphs for Genesis that come in a DSA format, but when I double click them the only thing that happens is the lips disappear from the model. :P
    Is there a tutorial or documentation on how to use this new version of Daz Studio?
    Personally I am finding it much more complicated than poser or earlier version of Daz Studio.
    Lastly, can I use morphs to change a duf file? I have one that I like but the morph is too thin, I want to add a little flesh to it so it looks more like what I am envisioning, but I find I cannot do anything with them except move them around, pose them using preset poses and change the materials. What am I doing wrong?

    How and where did you install them?

    I used the Daz Installer, all of my files are put in different location since I share between my Poser, Carrara and Daz Studio.
    In my case they are stored in the D: Drive under the Modeling folder.
    Does this affect my morphs?

    Did you install manually or using DAZ Install Manager?

    Can you post the following two screenshots:
    1) In DS, Edit > Preferences > Content Library > Content Directory Manager, expand the "DAZ Studio Formats" and "Poser Formats"
    2) In DIM, on Ready to Install tab check the "Show Details" box in the lower right

    I can see 2 things that could be a problem. First, make sure the path in DIM is "D:\Modeling\Modeling Content\DAZ 3D\Studio\My Library" and not a higher or lower folder. If that's not the problem, then it might be the entry in "Other Formats" throwing things off, as the DS and Poser Formats are inside that folder.

    What is the best way to fix the problem, uninstall all my content and reinstall it using the updated DIM or is there another way?

    Uninstalling and reinstalling with DIM is probably the simplest way if the path was wrong. Do you still have the downloads sitting in the DIM downloads folder?

    Yes, I will do that then.
    Thank you.
