Description
Below I have a little info on installing your presets in Camera Raw for Lightroom and Photoshop.
How to install the Adobe Camera Raw Presets: Lightroom 7.3 and above and Photoshop CC. These are for all newer versions of Lightroom and Photoshop.
1- Once you download your product you will have a zip file. In the zip file, you will find the .xmp extension files.
2 – Locate your Adobe folder on your hard drive
On Mac, this folder is: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/
On Windows: C:\ProgramData\Adobe\
3 – Locate the Camera Raw folder in your Adobe folder
4 – Locate the “Settings” folder inside the Camera Raw folder
5 – Paste the presets in this folder and restart your program.
**If you are working on a Windows machine and cannot find the files listed – you will need to google how to unhide the files on your machine for whichever version of Windows you are working on. For some reason, Windows hides half your files from you!
*If you are working on a Mac and cannot find your Library Menu – be sure you are holding down your OPT key while clicking on the GO menu so it shows up for you. It is hiding.

How to install for Lightroom Mobile:
To install import the .xmp files into the mobile app – you need to have the Lightroom CC desktop app (This is different than the Lightroom Classic program) installed on your desktop computer. You’ll need to import them into your desktop program first, then sync them to your mobile app via the Adobe Creative Cloud feature. You’ll need to be connected to the internet to sync your programs.
You can check out the differences on the Adobe site here: https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom-classic.html
And watch a video here on it: https://video.tv.adobe.com/v/20577/?quality=6&autoplay=true&hidetitle=true
1 – Open your program on desktop and: Go to File > Import profiles & presets
2 – Select the folder on your computer with the preset folder inside of it. Click the “Import” button. (You can also click on the “presets” folder in the lower right corner to bring up the preset panel also – click on the 3 dots in the upper corner and use the import option from there)
3 – Open the Lightroom CC mobile app on your mobile device.
4 – Make sure you are logged into your Adobe Creative Cloud account on your mobile device so it will sync to your desktop program.
5 – Navigate to presets icon in the bottom right of your toolbar in the app.
6 – Here you will see the presets installed (synced).
***You’ll need to be an Adobe Creative Cloud subscriber to install these in Lightroom Mobile.

The version you have may vary slightly from the versions these instructions were created from. If that is the case – simply follow the instructions from Adobe to install the presets.
