Presets are not saved

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

Hello! I'm creating a new preset, but it's not displayed in lightroom in custom styles, I can't see it and can't use it. What could be the reason?

I work on a macbook, M1.

Please post in a reply the following:

• Your Adobe program name and version:
• Your MACOS name and version:
• A better screenshot
• Any error messages if applicable

on the latter, see:

Take screenshots or screen recordings on Mac

Thanks for the answer! I created a preset, but it does not appear in the menu. And I tried to download the presets and install them in the lightroom, but I don't see them.

MACOS  Big Sur v11.2.3  ?

Why so out of date? Current is v11.5.2

various improvements, bug fixes, and security improvements 

Adobe always mentions updating OS when troubleshooting.

In LrC, in the preferences, select the presets tab, notice the section on presets location, click the button to show develop presets location, Look at what is shown in Finder, find the preset(s) in question, take a screenshot and post that.

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

Did I understand you correctly?)

They are displayed in the settings, which means they are uploaded to the lightroom, but they are not visible in the menu.

Actually, no, I will expand on that, give an example

Bring up Preferences, select the Presets tab, click on Show Lightroom Develop Presets

Finder will come up, It will probably be Showing the a folder called Settings (well, in English), and will show the files and folders under Settings. You probably have a few folders related to your presets. bring up one of those folders.

Issue to inspect, is do any more folders exist. Lightroom Classic will not read one more folder deep than this point (I might be off by one)

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

I have it looks like this. The setting folder, and the saved presets in it. I use several directories.

I'm new to this🙈

But I did everything according to the instructions in different ways.

Do you have more than one catalog?

I ask because I see that you are Storing Presets with Catalog. Many of us do not

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

I haven't clicked the check mark here before. At the same time, the presets were not saved on the left panel anyway. I just started trying different options.

 

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

Can you help me?

[Rob_Cullen]

Are you expanding the 'Groups' by clicking on the 'spinner' icon?

You do not show any Groups expanded in your screen-clips!

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

Sure. But it doesn't open.🤷‍:female_sign:

[Rob_Cullen]

I want to see what is shown when you-

Do this then post a screen-clip.

[КСЕНИЯ5E57]

That's the problem! Nothing opens. I'm trying to figure out why.🤷‍:female_sign:

[Rob_Cullen]

Very strange!

Do any of the other Groups expand when you click on the 'spinner' triangle?

Do you see all the presets that install with Lr-Classic?

My suggestions might include-

--Reset the Preferences file. Preferences Reset 

--Re-install Lr-Classic after using the Adobe Cleaner Tool. CLEANER TOOL LINK 

--Use Finder to 'MOVE' all the .XMP Preset files to another location, then Import Presets again.
