Images not showing in lightroom develop panel on mac

Question

System:Lightroom Classic 15.3.1 running on Mac mini M4 Pro 48GB 650GB spare storage.Catalogue is on the internal Mac mini SSD. Problems:This problem occurs frequently:Open up LRC, Edit three or four images in Develop module. Proceed to next image, but the image in the Develop module doesn’t change, or there is a grey panel. Shut down LRC - Writing Metadata changes into XMP…sticks at 29% and makes no further progress. So I have to force close LRC. I have tried disabling GPU etc. Any suggestions please? Thanks Richard

Hey, @RichUK. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll need more info to help you figure this out.

Please share the system info from Lightroom Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > Upload and attach here.

Where are the original images stored, on the internal or external drive? If the images are kept on an external drive, please try this step on the external drive:

Search for Disk Utility from Finder's spotlight search or magnifying glass.
Run the 'First Aid' diagnostic on the external drive. Check this to learn more: https://adobe.ly/4jbQS7x
Restart the computer

Thanks!
