How to Install Presets and Plug-Ins on Adobe Premiere CS5.5 for Mac OSX Tutorial
Hi everyone this video is going to teach you how to install presets for Adobe Premiere CS5.5 on a computer running the Mac Operating System. Today I’m using a Mac installed with OS X El Capitan, Version 10.11.6. There are two different methods to install Plug-Ins for Adobe Premiere CS5.5 and it depends on the type of Plug-In you’re installing.
One type of plug-in are the one’s that end with the file extension .plugin and the other plug-in files end in the file extension .prfpset
METHOD 1 Installing .plugin files:
Plugin files are pretty simple to install. You just have to drag and drop your files into CS5.5’s Media Core folder.

Step 1: Locate the Hard Drive where you have Adobe Premiere CS5.5 installed.
Open a new finder window by pressing CMD+N, while having your desktop selected.
This opens a new finder window.
Step 2: On the left hand side of the window, choose the Hard Drive where your applications are installed. I currently have my applications installed on a Hard Drive called 1TB-Hybrid-2015.
Your hard drive will be named something different.
Step 3: Choose the Library Folder.

Step 10: Drag and drop and .plugin files into the MediaCore folder.
Step 11: If you already have Adobe Premiere CS5.5 open, make sure to close the program and then re-launch it, so that Premiere will be able to find your newly installed plugin files.
Step 12: You can look for your newly installed .plugin files in the Adobe Premiere Effects panel.
