Please head to the Topaz Labs folder, located here:

For each plugin that you would like to add to Photoshop, navigate to the following folder, using Adjust 5 as an example, and copy the .plugin file you find there:

Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Topaz Labs/Adjust 5/Plugins/Topaz_adjust5.plugin

Next, navigate to the Photoshop Plug-ins folder, and paste the .plugin file you just copied. Here are the various Photoshop CC Plug-in folders, by version:

When you are finished copying/pasting the .plugin files, you should be able to restart Photoshop and see your Plug-ins in the Filters menu.

64bit Host Editors - C:\Program Files (x86)\Topaz Labs\Topaz Adjust 5\PS_Plugins_x64\

Copy the preset file located in this folder, for each plugin you would like to install into Photoshop. In this example, we are using the 64bit plugin, so we will copy tladjust5ps_x64.8bf.

Navigate to your Photoshop Plug-ins folder. Please see the version you're using below for the correct folder:

Photoshop CC 2017 - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-ins\CC\
