They are all videos being imported from a SD card to the FCP Library. It always says missing file when you export the SD card even though I selected everything to download into the FCP Library. It has always worked fine but since the last update it will not import like normal. I have to download everything to my desktop then drag it into the video for the videos to import without issues.

So this has nothing at all to do with the Photos app that the original post is talking about?


Are you using the FCP Import window or something else?


Did all the importing and processing you set up complete before the card was removed? Are there any icons on the clips in the browser? Are there poster frames for the clips? Post screenshots of what you're seeing in the application.
