The UI can click, menu can popout, even preferences window work fine, but you can not see any photo in any floders

But when I foce lightroom close and repoen, files have imported and library preview is ok.

The issus just happen when after import file.

@ginny0606 @Rikk Flohr: Photography  I noticed that the import (v14.0.1) would not work at all when I had any video files in the upload folder. Once I removed them, the import previews work and imports as ususal.

Dont forget to follow the directions for the Security and Privacy settubgs when you do the reinstall. MacOS 11 has some new requirements there.

A preference reset is a good place to start:

This procedure works for both Lightroom Classic and Lightroom Desktop.

If you are using Lightroom Desktop it can change the location of your local storage. Please review this setting after resetting preferences. 

 

Reset Procedure:

1. Close Lightroom.

2. Hold down [Alt/Opt]+[Shift] while restarting Lightroom.

3. Overwrite the Preferences when prompted by the dialog.

4. Close Lightroom.

5. Restart Lightroom.

Watching your video, it doesn't look like you wait very long after recieving the Loading Bezel. If you leave it on the folder where you imported the single image for a long time, do the previews ever populate? If so, how long do they take?


Hi Rikk, yesterday I import one image and wait.... after 2 hours, the library preview still nothing until I force close lightroom classic and reopen it.
I think preview is already finished, but somehow it just can not work normally...
