How do I find and export a profile?

I made a custom profile for my camera using the Colorchecker Passport app from X-Rite. It is on my Macbook; I'd like to copy it to my desktop machine, as that is where I do my editing. But I cannot find it on my Macbook as an individual file. It is available to use in that install of Lightroom Classic, so I know it exists! Can anyone tell me how to get it working in my second install of LR?

The profile should be located in Macintosh HD/Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles.

An easy way to find a custom profile: In Develop, open the profile browser, browse to the profile, right-click it, and do Show In Finder.

If you are reffering to a camera profile, it may be located here: 

 

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/CameraProfiles

 

This article may help you locate other locations too for lightroom classic files.
