I used migration to transfer files from an external hard drive to my new IMAC. The photoshop application transferred but non of the actions, brushes or fonts that I had purchased over the years came over. How do I find these files and bring them over to the new computer?
You can manually move across the appropriate files.

Unfortunately I didn't know I needed to export those files and my old computer has died. I thought they would automatically be saved in a Time Machine backup on my external hard drive. Do you know of another way?

They should be in a Time Machine backup. Can you restore individual files from the old backup on your new computer?

I can't find them. I don't know if I'm looking in the wrong place or what. Apple care was no help. They didn't know where they would be. I can find all the presets that came with photoshop, but none that I added.

Where are you looking? Let’s start with fonts. Where did you keep them?

I found them! Thankfully my brain finally turned on when you asked that. I have them all reloaded. Thanks so much!
