MacOS Ventura - drives do not show off on desktop and finder sidebar.

So I have a MacBook Air 2020, I updated to Ventura. I got into a Finder window, the sidebar only has Cloud Drive, MacBook and Macintosh Drive. I go into preferences and select my favorites and nothing. I restarted, nothing. Anyone else have this issue? Any solutions? Thanks

Is the Favorites list collapsed. Hover over the right side of Favorites header and click the disclosure triangle.

Exactly the same here, on a 2020 MBA M1 running 13.0.1. Carbon Copy Cloner can see and back up to the disk, but it doesn't show on the Desktop or sidebar (when settings are that it should). If I unplug it I get told off for disconnecting it improperly. If I go to Disk Utility, the SSD external drive is shown as mounted, as is the Container Disk in it, but the volume that should show on the Desktop is greyed out (and repeated, one nested inside the other). If I click on either and select 'Mount' nothing happens.

It's pretty sad when Apple can't even get this right.

A bit more digging and I found this: https://bombich.com/kb/ccc6/macos-ventura-known-issues

So it explains why CCC volumes will not show no matter what you do. And Mr Bombich is right, reformatting lets it show as expected and doing a data-only/non-bootable backup is the only way for the future. Shame!

Try toggling the show on Desktop and Sidebar options.

For the Sidebar, what happens if you drag it in from Go > Comouter?

Doesn't work, tried it.

The same her on my mini (M1 - Ventura) but found no solution yet. Tried everything recommended ... On the other hand everything is working fine on my Macbook Air M1. Apple should help!

Thank you, this has opened my eyes.

Places (Orte in German) was collapsed, favorites list not not. Think it happened after the latest update. However it's working correctly now.
