Is there a way to transfer the loaded brushes on one computer to another computer? I'm going from a Mac to Mac. Thanks!

    \Yes of courese

    Just select Brush tool (B) and go to Click to Open Brush Preset Picker - options - find it in left right corner of Photoshop

    Then use Options menu (top right corner) and select Save  Brushes command - it's save your brushes  in new external file with .abr extension.

    Save them into your disk and then load them using Load Brushes command in new Photoshop installation

    Did you ever save the Brushes as an abr-file? 

     

    You could try Edit > Presets > Export/Import Presets. 

    Edit: Or copying the abr-files in the user library or using the Brushes Panel’s popup menu.
