I have to install the Plug-in XRiteColorCheckerPassport and i should put it in   User Name > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Lightroom > Modules  but i can't find the Modules folder

I put the plugin in   Machintosh HD > Applications > Lightroom > (show package content) > Contents > Plugin

In Lightroom in plugin manager it shows up but when i try to export a new color profile with ColorCheckerPassport it says "Can not create profile. An unknown error occurred."

Put it in User Name > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Lightroom > Plugins. If the folder doesn't exist then just create it and put the xrite p..-in into same

Do NOT try to install it into the application package!
