Capcut access to photos on MAC - No option to add Capcut app

I am trying to give Capcut access to my photo library on my mac. When I go to Privacy Settings the only app that has access is I Movie with no option to add other apps. Would be grateful for help.

Hey there! It seems like you're having trouble with CapCut on your Mac, specifically regarding access to photos and the absence of an option to add the CapCut app. Let me help you out!

Firstly, to grant CapCut access to your photos on your Mac, you might want to check your system preferences. Head to "System Preferences" > "Security & Privacy" > "Privacy" tab, and ensure that CapCut has the necessary permissions for accessing photos. If it's not listed there, try restarting the app and the computer to refresh permissions...

Now, regarding the missing option to add the CapCut app, it's possible that the application is not designed to be added in the traditional way. Sometimes, certain apps, especially those downloaded from the internet, don't appear in the Applications folder. Instead, you can access them from the "Downloads" folder or the location where you saved the CapCut app. If you're still facing issues, consider reaching out to CapCut's support for specific guidance tailored to your situation...

As a bonus tip, have you explored using templates in CapCut? Templates can be a game-changer when it comes to video editing efficiency. They offer pre-designed layouts and effects, saving you time and ensuring a polished look. Check out the template section within the CapCut app – it might just be the creative boost you're looking for!...

Hope this helps, and happy editing!
