What was the situation on your Mac before you upgraded to Catalina?

-What version of macOS were you running there?

-Were your photos and albums showing in the Photos application?

-Were your photos and albums showing in the Finder?

Trying to understand exactly which things you see now are changes.


Also are you now seeing any photos and albums in Photos on your Mac, or none at all?

Hi Mark thanks for the reply, hopefully I can answer your questions , so


My previous OIS was High Sierra

yes all photos showing on Macbook pro

yes all photo albums showing in Finder


I have over 12k photos on icloud but can only view 275 on macbook photo app and albums have no photos.


I can access all photos/albums on iphone12.

I replaced my MacBook battery a few days ago, could it be a syncing issue?
