Under "Lens Correction" only 8 lens profiles are listed, most of them for lenses I do not have, and does not list some lenses that I do have. How do I find and install profiles for the lenses I do have? I searched support site and contacted a Chat session. Neither was any help. Chat said to get profiles from lens manufacturer but when I checked the Nikon site they do not list any lens profiles. Chat session said that the profiles that are listed were defaults that were part of the program.

Are you working with jpeg file or raw file? The vast majority are for raw files, very few for jpeg files.

I don't know what happened but I never received an email that I had received a response to my question so here is a follow up.

I was using Nikon RAW files. I did receive an email response from Adobe with links to various sites but none of them addressed my question. They just directed me to a list of lenses Adobe supports, how to bring up the list of lenses in LR, and how to create lens profiles. My question is since Adobe lists around three dozen Nikon lenses that it has profiles for why does my version of LR only display eight profiles? Has Adobe deliberately left profiles out of LR v6 (i.e., standalone) to try to force users to use the more expensive (and revenue generating) CC version? A very simple question. Why wont Adobe tech support answer it? I'm really disgusted with Adobe tech support.

P.S. Any ideas why I did not receive an email notifying me that I had responses to this post?

I am having the same problem. The lens profiles for my Pentax lenses were on the list until quite recently. The support site says the lenses are supported, but Pentax is no longer a choice on the list. These are DNG files produced natively by Pentax. See the image below. This is Mac OS 10.10.5

I know this has been a long time, but are you sure that you are not trying to apply that to a JPG file ? Maybe you had RAW+ (DNG+JPG) selected in your camera ? Does it work on other DNG files?
Asking that because in my case that was it... I often wondered why, and just found my answer today (Using Lr 6.14 Standalone/ perpetual license... But otherwise I see the lenses listes in the supported lenses listed on the Adobe site, except maybe the latest ones..

You probably loaded a JPG photo. Most of the lens profiles are for RAW only.
