Converting PSD files to tifs to enable importing into LR; files not showing in original folder

I've been updating my LR catalog, and noticed that LR wouldn't import my old PSD files, so I converted them to tifs in PS, saved them in the original image folder, but the tifs aren't showing up in the original folder. I try again, and get the 'file exists in folder, do you want to replace", and still no tifs are showing up in the folder.

Running LR Classic (12.1) on a new Studio M1 Mac. PS v. 24.1.0.
