I just got a new laptop today, and signed in with my lightroom account info...but all of my presets that I made and bought are missing, like I'm starting over from scratch...how do I get them to transfer onto my new laptop?? I assumed they would go wherever I logged into?!

The trick is to make sure you transferred all the needed files from the old computer to the new computer.

As per post 1. above- ManiacJoe.
Understand that presets are like simple 'text' files that have the file-type suffix {.LRTEMPLATE}
They can be copied and pasted into any computer running LIghtroom- in the appropriate folder.
(Find the Presets folder by opening: Lr Preferences>Presets Tab [Show Lightroom Presets Folder] )

Okay so just copy the file onto a usb then open lightroom on the new computer and plug the USB in to the new computer and drag and drop?
