"see: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/quick-tips-how-to-give-full-disk-access..."

 

To build on this, someone else reported very similar symptoms with LR 11.2 on Mac OS 11.6.2, and they solved the issue by granting LR Full Disk Access (as described in the linked article). So definitely give that a try.   (Most of the reports here about needing to grant Full Disk Access are for Mac OS 12.)

Do you get an error message on your desktop when attempting to work/ load images?

If so please post a screen capture of the message or quote word for word.

What's the exact camera model (including any "mark" numbers)?  Do the menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the first line here.
