HavE issues installing?
Try these tips if you are having issues when downloading
- If the download isn’t working, try a different internet browser.
⠀ - Do NOT choose to “open” the file after download. Click “save”, then close that dialogue box. Open Windows Explorer and locate the ZIP file, which is most likely in your “Downloads” folder.
⠀ - Can’t Unzip? If on a Mac/PC right-clicking does not offer “Extract Files”, you may need to download an external program to unzip. We recommend these free apps:
macOS – The Unarchiver
Windows – The Unarchiver
Getting logged out or a blank screen when downloading? Try clearing your web browser’s cache.
macOS – Safari, Chrome, Firefox
Windows – Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox
Presets not showing up?
- Try shutting down the Lightroom app and restarting the device.
⠀ - If the preset collection name shows in Lightroom but not the individual presets, click the triangle to the left of the collection name, and the templates will dropdown.
⠀ - Make sure the folder you copied into the “Develop Presets” folder actually holds the presets and not another folder.
⠀ - Make sure you copied the right presets into the right folder. Do NOT check “Store Presets With Catalog.” This setting is found to the left of “Show Lightroom Presets Folder” in your Preferences menu. If you have multiple catalogs, your presets will not show up in additional ones.
⠀ - Make sure that you EXTRACTED the ZIP file. If you merely double-click on the folder (on a PC), you will get access to the presets, but those will NOT be extracted files and will NOT copy/paste correctly and will NOT show up in your Lightroom.
⠀ - Our Lightroom presets will help to take out the guesswork of adjusting settings for hours to achieve the featured look. Lightroom Masters Lightroom presets will help give the push you need in your editing style.
