ICC Profile in Lightroom 5

I try to install an ICC Profile from my printer lab. As I did it in May it was no problem. Today, I couldn't install any of the profile.

I save the profile after download here: MacintoshHD:/Library/ColorSync/Profiles

But I couldn't find them in the profile list in Lightroom (of course I started Lightroom new after copy the files).

Have anyone a suggestion what I did wrong or what the solution is?

Thanks a lot

Correct answer TheDigitalDog

Is it perhaps a CMYK output profile? In previous versions of LR, CMYK profiles were recognized but that was a buggy experience so Adobe removed support for CMYK profiles.

No, not in the current versions as Adobe killed CMYK support.
