Last few folders missing in Lightroom for last year’s shoots

[Ken Nielsen]

I catalog my folders by year and then inside, by date of shoot. For some reason the last few folders for December of last year are not showing in Lightroom Library view. I've heard that Lightroom on Windows only allows 1600 folders in a folder. Is that true also for a Mac? The folders are there, and were cataloged at the times of the shoots but now they do not show up. Can I repair this or do I need to use a work-around using another program to view the folders? Any suggestion to how to fix this so I can see the folders and images that are there?

Please don't be so scared. The things we asked you to do in Lightroom Classic change which photos are displayed in the grid; that's all, the grid changes. No photos get moved. No photos get renamed. No photos get altered. All the photos in your Lightroom Classic catalog that were there yesterday will still be there ... and maybe you will find those folders from the end of last year are in Lightroom Classic's catalog.

Thanks @Ian Lyons. It's a 32767 pixel limit equating to about 1600 entries.

@drtonyb you are correct, not sure why I wrote px
