I am trying to add my Mastin Labs presets to my new iMac. I have tried watching every youtube video on how to add them. I see the .xmp files and imported them. Now what?? the presets "+" is not able to be clicked on.

Your Preset panel should be showing, at the least, the default presets from Adobe and the [+] icon!

Even if I disable ALL Presets by the "Manage" option I still see a 'Favorites' group (and the presets in this group)

So I suggest that something is wrong with your install.

You could try both a Preferences Reset and a full re-install of Lightroom.

 

Secondly- The ML Presets all have a full-stop in the file name. This may be confusing Lightroom badly. I suggest you rename them to delete the full-stop in the filename.

 

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .

As a diagnostic, make sure you select a RAW photo when you make the attempt to use or see the preset, or to evaen see if you can manage presets.

 

Also, I forget where, in Preferences, an option to use partuatly compatable  presets with JPEG.
