How can I install new presets in Lightroom 3 (on Mac). Just received email with .xmp presets from Adobe. Can they be used in Lightroor 3?

"Lightroom 3" from 2009? No! (.XMP presets NOT compatible!)

Or "Lightroom v3.0 (Cloud based)? Yes! as suggested by @selondon

Screen-clip the report from the MENU: Help > System Info...

Thank you for both replies. Unfortunately it is Lightroom 3 from 2009.

Can your supplier of the Presets provide them as .lrtemplate files?

I have not used, so cannot comment on this 'converter' (XMP > LRTEMPLATE) that can be purchased-

Copied from the Adobe documentation....

From the menu bar, choose File > Import Profiles & Presets.
In the Import dialog that appears, browse to the required path and select profiles or presets that you want to import. Click Import.

Is it the cloud based Lightroom you are referring to?
