Hi, i just swtiched over to a new MBP and was importing some of my presets from another older MBP but the presets cant be found. Anyone knows the answer for this? Some of them were bought and it is quite a bummer they are not appearing in the 11.2 version of LRC

One other possibility: if a preset applies a custom profile, and that profile isn't available, then the preset won't show. This is a known bug, and has not been solved yet as far as I know.

Was Store Presets with Catalog turned on in the old catalog and is it on in the new? This can hide presets. 

The most reliable way to bring individual presets in is via File>Import Develop Profiles and Presets. 

In the Presets tab of Preferences, make sure Show Partially Compatible Develop Presets is on. Some presets may need a specific profile and if it's not available, they're not shown without this.

Do you already have some images in Lightroom? Presets only show when there is something to apply them to.
