title: PostgreSQL (EnterpriseDB) on a Mac with OS X El Capitan
body: <p>I recently installed PostgresSQL on my laptop and have a weird problem with the shell/terminal. I can create a database and table with pgAdmin III, but entering commands in the terminal doesn't accomplish anything.</p>
  
  <p>One weird thing is that when I double click on the PostgreSQL shell icon, it opens APPLE's terminal.</p>
  
  <p>I just discovered that PostgreSQL is already installed on Mac's, apparently as part of the serve. If I understand correctly, you still have to install it independently if you want to work with it database (I think).</p>
  
  <p>Anyway, I'm thoroughly confused.  I'm not sure if I need to tinker with some files to "separate" the PostgreSQL and Apple terminals or if I need to uninstall PostgreSQL. And if I uninstall it, how do I do it without installing the PostgreSQL files associated with Apple's server.</p>
  
  <p>Then again, I don't really use Apple's serve - unless it serves some function I'm not aware of.</p>
  
  <p>I'm snowed. In summary, if you've installed PostgreSQL EnterpriseDB on a Mac running OS X El Capitan and had similar problems, how did you fix them?</p>
