Your help to resolve your issue would be very appreciated, for example
by giving us the error message you have when you try to connect :)
Anyway, we can try and guess that you forgot to change listen_addresses.
If this postgresql.conf parameter is 'localhost', then you should change
it to be '*'. After that, you restart PostgreSQL, and you should be able
to connect from pgAdmin.
If it doesn't work, give us the error message and your full pg_hba.conf
file (mind you, the lines order are important).
