Can't find Colors (.clr Files)

Me again.
 
I was just watching a tutorial that showed how to import different color schemes for Sonar 8PE.
 
As the instructor was explaining how to import color schemes, he went to "Colors" in the "Options" tab in Sonar, clicked on presets and on the dropdown menu there were at least 15-20 different options for color schemes (even one from another sequencer)!
My dropdown menu only gives me 3 options, "Dark Side, Light Side, and Sonar 8!
 
How can I find the rest of my preset color options?

    Hi Harpo, You can find lot of extra colour schemes to download here: http://www.sonartemplates.com/
     
    If you make a cutom colour scheme of your own and wish to share it with the rest of the community then just send it to me at popworksATgmailDOTcom and I'll post it up on the site for you.
     
    As for the default schemes I'd suggest using 'find files and folders' and searching for *.clr
     
    Cheers, Child

    Hi Harpo...

    ...That's because SONAR, since version 8.5, only features those (very nice...) three color schemes... so you actually CAN'T find any others, unless:


    1. You have previous SONAR versions installed, so you can export color schemes from there (Options>Colors>Export...) and then import them into the 8.5 version (Options>Colors>Import...);

    2. You download some extra colors schemes, as already suggested, and then import them into SONAR 8.5 (as above in point 1...).

    Enjoy...

    question: i have sonar 8.5 (and currently not thinking about upgrading to x1). i can not get these color schemes from rothchilds site to work. i download them and click on import in sonar 8.5, yet nothing - absolutely nothing - happens. am i stupid or missing something? answers will be rewarded with ... hm ... hugs? ;-) EDIT: oh, and yes, i tried restarting sonar. are the colors in the listing supposed to change when you import a color scheme? i can try all i want, i can set colors myself, but i can not import any schemes. :(
