Thanks for your help so far!
So I decided to update to 9.4. I made a backup of my default database with processed hands (should I have made a backup of every db?), uninstalled 8.4 as was guided, and installed 9.4. I restored the database, but for some reason it seemed empty. There was no hands, and the size read N/A. So I decided to try again, and unistalled 9.4. Reinstalled 8.4 to make a new backup. But the same problem occurred again with restoring the db. Well, I did a bit of searching and found this thread https://www.pokertracker.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=57926, and decided to try those instructions. So I uninstalled 9 and installed 8.4 again.
Well this time problems started right away. When I try to connect to the db with PT4, it says "Error connecting to the default database". At first it said "Is the server running on host "???" and accepting TCP/IP connections to port 5432?". I've tried to install postgres to different folders, including the one where it was originally installed. I've tried firewall on and off. I have my old data folder with all the databases still in it's original folder, but I just can't seem to connect to those anymore.
