Can't find presets in Pro-Q4
I see all the presets on my Mac in documents/fabfilter/presets but they are not showing up in the presets menu on the UI. Can anyone help?

This seems to be an issue with the files offloading from your computer and onto your iCloud when you have iCloud syncing enabled for your documents folder. You can download the preset to your local machine again by clicking the download icon in Finder. The presets are located there:
Documents/FabFilter/
You can also right click on the folder and choose "Keep Downloaded" so the files will not be removed locally again.
Please let me know if this resolves your issue.
This advice works.
All of my Presets have disappeared from all of my FabFilter Plugins....
When I try to select one of my Presets... I get this message
The preset file could not be opened.
Incorrect file permissions or corrupt preset file.
I found all of the Preset Folder in My Documents Folder. The all have the iCloud Icon next to them... as do most of my other Software Plugins....
When I right click and try to "Keep Downloaded" in my FabFilter Folder in Documents on my Mac.... I get this error message.

Any thoughts on how to fix my issue?
