Hello! 

I am new to lightroom (on a Mac) and I am suuuuper confused.

When I am trying to manage my presets, every tutorial I see says to go up to the top of the screen and click on "Adobe Lightroom" and then "Preferences" and then "Presets."

 

The issue is that my Preferences menu looks NOTHING like theirs. I don't have any of the tabs/options that they have. Am I doing something wrong? Please help.

Image of mine included below.

Hi,

 

You are using the Cloud Based Lightroom. I imagine most of the tutorials are for the traditional disc based Lightroom Classic.

 

This Adobe tutorial may help (although it's a little old now): https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/lightroom-cc/how-to/photo-presets-lightroom-cc.html?playlist=/services/playlist.helpx/products:SG_LIGHTROOM_1_1~cc/learn-path:get-started/set-header:ccx-photographer/playlist:ccl-get-started-1/en_GB.json&ref=helpx.adobe.com
