Presets not showing up in Lightroom classic v 15.0

Hello,

I have been facing a problem regarding my presets not appearing in my profile in lightroom classic v15. (Macbook)
I have tryied multiple times to deselect the ""Store presets with this catalog" and "show partially compatible develop presets" and is still not working.
I have also tryied applying them directly in the folder "User presets" inside the "developed presets", and they still don't appear in my list of presets.
They also don't appear in "profile" while being in developed mode.
I am using raw files and the presets are XMP from authentic love presets.
Every time I try to import them again it says the have already been imported but I just can't find them anywhere.

I have been using these presets in lightroom classiv v13 and it worked perfectly. Since I have updated to v15, I can't find them anymore.

Please, if you had the same problem and know how to fix it, please help.

Thank you!

Same here, no answer and no workaround!! Quite irritated. Why isn't it possible to import a preset DIRCTLY intoa folder of your preference???? System says presents already imported BUT where are they?????

In the previous catalog, was that the setting you were using?

You might simply have disabled the group.

So do:

Right Click on any "Preset Group" and do "Mange Presets..."
Tick the Preset group from "authentic love presets" if is not yet ticked.

When importing presets they are NOT imported within the LrC ecosystem, presets do not end in Lightroom Settings > Settings
They are imported to a ACR folder.

I recommend do always use "Store presets with this catalog".

Instead of doing "Import Presets" simply manually copy them to Lightroom Settings > Settings that is next to your catalog.

Thank you for your reply,

I have checked all presets groups in the "manage presets" and they still don't appear in my list of presets... 😞
