Hi, I have a problem. I use Lightroom as import photos to an external drive and I edit them on it. Yesterday after connected the external drive I realized that I can not see any of the folders I have on it with my photos. Justa new folder I created by mistake. If I see my hard drive it still has all the folders but Lightroom can not see { and the one mistaken created is not there on the external drive if I check it. So the mistaken one iñcan be seen on Lightroom but the original ones no . How can I fix this ? Thank you

When you look in Lightroom Classic: Are there question mark icons on your folders? Are there exclamation point icons on your files?

Does this refer to what you see in Lightroom Classic or in Mac Finder?

Add Lightroom to Mac OS System Prefs/Security and Privacy/Full Disk Access.
