Hi,

 

I was searching for this topic and post it here because I couldn't find it on internet and figured it out myself.

 

Paste the file in this map. 

For Mac: Applications/ Adobe Photoshop cc 2019/ Locales/en_GB/Support Files/Shortcuts/Mac

 

If Photoshop was still open, restart Photoshop.

Cheers,

Not sure why, but this didn't work for me. So what I did instead is I went to the Shortcuts panel in PS on my laptop (where my shortcuts are how I want them), and I clicked the "Save all changes to the current shorcuts" button:

Which then had me save the .kys file somewhere. I transferred that file to my iMac, and then I opened the file in Photoshop, which then allowed me to overwrite the keyboard shortcuts (and it will prompt you asking if you want to save the current set of shortcuts before you overwrite).

 

Again, not sure why the method given my the OP didn't work for me - but this other solution did so I hope it's helpful for someone else too!
