(Mac) "No Images that can be imported found in the selected source"

When I try to import from my SD card (using a USB reader or internal SD card slot), Lightroom says "No Images that can be imported found in the selected source". Instead, I need to import from "Browse" and select the SD card in the Finder.

I was having the same issue. The way I fixed it was:

Close Lightroom
Open the Mac 'System Settings' app
Navigate to 'Privacy & Security'
Open 'Files and Folders'
Expand the 'Adobe Lightroom' entry
Turn off the 'Removable Volumes' setting
Turn on the 'Removable Volumes' setting

Yo! This is a fix for for when lightroom cc would freeze import from my iPhone, then stop importing entirely, upon reopening LR it would see the phone but not load any of the photos.

This issue has existed since.. like.. LR 6 lol! I used to use MacOS image capturre or Reboot or stop/start a service, Helper i think but I couldn't remember. Saw your comment snd permissioning fault made sense. Tried it and worked instantly without rebooting, opened LR and iPhone showed up and I was able to restart my import.

Thank you for posting your solution!!

The OP did get an informative respons and did not come back after that, so I assume his issue was solved. Please post a screenshot of the import dialog (so the dialog before you get the error). Embed it please, using this button , do not attach it.
