Colour Swatches?

I saved some colours in Photoshop > save colour swatches. I see them in photoshop after quitting and reopening app, but when i want to load the same colours into Illustrator, i don't see any option how to? I tried in Illustrator the swatches> open swatches library> other library then > I go to application > photoshop > presets > colour swatches, I dont see them there....I must be doing something wrong?

doesn't recognize the aco. format. BTW the file was sitting in application support> adobe> photoshop > presets> swatches...Is that any different from going directly to application > photoshop and presets folder! I am losing it....

They should automatically import into the color swatches when you place the image in Illustrator.

She's not placing an image, just loading colors (though your comment is correct):
