Hello Sunshine,
Highlight the action you wish to save, then click on the drop down at the far right of the actions palette header, then select save action. On the other computer, click on the drop down and choose load action.

I hope this helps.

Ed

Ed is close, but there is more..

If you highlight an individual action and try to save it you will find the "Save Actions" item is grayed out. Can't do it.

You can only save action "sets". To save and share an individual action, first create a set. Move or copy the action to the set, then save the set.

On the target computer, load the action set. Then move the individual action to whatever set you want it in.
