When I go to import folders, there are a few new subfolders that I ahve created that do not show up as an option for import. They are present when I exit Lightroom and view the Photos folder on my mac, but when I go back inot LR and try to import they do not show up. Any help for this, couldnt find an answer through searches, thanks!

I use Lightroom Classic 6.13 and recently upgraded my MacOS to 11.3. My Desktop folder contains many subfolders with images. When I "Import" with "Include Subfolders" ticked, then Lightroom does not show any subfolders, but rather "no photos found". This Lightroom catalog is even in a subfolder of Desktop that does contain photos. The error never occurred before my upgrade. Screenshot attached.

Make sure 'Include Subfolders' is checked in the Import module upper left-hand corner as shown below.

I have exactly the same problem but I have checked the 'Include subfolders' option and it does not help.

 I'm afraid I have Lightroom in Spanish. I have Lightroom Classic 10.2, Mac OS 10 Versión: 10.16.0 [20E232]. I an trying to inport photos from the Images folder on my hard disk but several new folders are not appearing - there should be more folders where it says Mayo 2021. Only three appear when there should be five.


I just updated todat to the latest LR and MAC OS softwares, LrC v10.2 and MAC OS Big Sur 11.3.1. Screen shot is below of side by side and you'll notice several folders in "Baby Jacob" are not coming up in the options for import on LrC, specifically months 9, 10, 11 folders.
