I have 333 styles that I use frequently but they are not in the latest Photoshop. I added a folder called My Styes but it will only let me import one at a time I had did not import. Cannot even see that folder in any of the Photoshop directories.Is there an easy way to get all my Styles in without adding each individually? The previous version just let me import them into the Styles folde and I was good. This time they are there but not showing up anywhere. Quite frankly I don;t like the way the Sytles now show compared to the previous versions where Photoshop created its own folders like Basic, Ntural, Fur, Fabric etc. Any hep or ideas> Thanks.

If you did not have the installer migrate your presets try using menu edit>Presets>migrate Presets.  Your added styles are stored into your Photoshop Preferences.  You can also inport them into Photoshop from your My Styles folder.

When the new version installed I did tell it to import but it did not so the I imported thm manually into the Styles folder as I had in orevious versions and they were not there. I did try the migration and it did not work either. In fact it gives a cannot write error. I do nopt get the first screen shot you enclosed I acan list etc but no actual view of the style nor do I get Patterns or shapes. The fact is that all my Brushes, Custom Shapes, Gradients, Patterns are in the 0ld saved folder and the new one as well but just do not show up. I am thinking of just copying the old folders into the new Photoshop folders and see if that works. Bottom lie they should be there but aren;t showing up. I thought to restart Photoshop and see if it then finds them but no way. Still the same.

If Migrate can not write. You should check that you user ID file permissions allows you to write to your Photoshop Preferences folder. The first screen capture is from my workspace. I will show the same from Adobe default workspace.

While you can Import your layer styles from your My Styles Folder . In  photoshop they are imported into your Photoshop Preferences Folder and stored in a file named "Styles.psp".  If your user id permission are wrong you may not be able to write that file. All you will have are Adobe default styles.
