P: No photos in selected folder (Mac)

[julief57036690]

I have over 60,000 images on an external hard drive.  Today when I opened Lightroom and tried to navigate to a recent image using the Navigator Panel, the folders and subfolders are all showing the numbers of photos inside the folder, but when I click on a subfolder it says "No photos in the selected Folder".  When I check the Finder they are there.  If I go to the highest level of parent folder on that external drive all 60,000 images are showing at that level and I can scroll through them.  But when I drill down to any lower level that the very highest, they are not there.  I have not done any moving of files or folders in the last several months and up until today everything was working fine.  I have not installed any new plugins or done anything out of the ordinary with Lightroom recently.  Any idea why this is happening and more importantly how I can fix it?  I've included a couple of screenshots to show what I'm talking about.

I posted it in the other thread.  Hopefully this leads to an answer.  Thank you!

In the Library Module next to Folders, there is a plus sign, click on that and select "Show Photos in Subfolders".

[John R Ellis]

Yes, your screenshot shows the same symptoms as other reports: the external drives appear under Macintosh HD/Volumes in the Folders panel, rather than at the top level.

Adobe has acknowledged this bug.  Meanwhile, the easiest workaround is to roll back to LR 12.1.

[staciecm]

It's checked.  It should be showing all photos and it does in other folders.

[John R Ellis]

Moderators, @Rikk Flohr: Photography, please merge with the existing bug:

[staciecm]

I am working on Windows.  Will this rollback help my issue too?  Thank you.

[John R Ellis]

"I am working on Windows.  Will this rollback help my issue too?"

Not clear.  It's straightforward to try and won't hurt anything.  Let us know.

[staciecm]

Actually I just checked and I am at 12.1. Should I upgrade?

[John R Ellis]

@staciecm is on LR 12.1 on Windows.  The other reports so far have been for LR 12.2 on Mac, with external volumes incorrectly displayed under Macintosh HD/Volumes, and rolling bak to LR 12.1 appears to work around the problem.

So let's keep this thread separate -- it may not be "the same problem". 

[John R Ellis]

@staciecm, when you click "2009", does it appear highlighted?  Your screenshot shows it not highlighted.

Also, do the LR menu command Help > System Info and copy/paste the entire contents here so we can see exactly which versions of hardware and software LR thinks you're running.

[John R Ellis]

@staciecm it's not clear you have "the same problem", so let's continue discussion of your issue in your original thread:

Scratch the question about the roll back, I found the answer.  Thanks for your help.

[Sean McCormack]

@Abigail28583633n332 can you include your solution as it may helps others? 

[Abigail28583633n332]

Uninstalling v12.2 and reinstalling v12.1 has worked very well. Whew! Now we wait for Adobe to fix the problem before updating again!

I have exactly the same problem that has only appeared in the last weeks. 

Checked everything, files available in folders and viewable through Finder.  When I click on the + near Folder - Show folders in Subfolders is selected.

Even more weird, when I click on the root folder, the images are visible.  When I select any of the subfolders, nothing is visible !  What is going on?

[markh93268350]

Same problem.  Logged in another forum (https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/no-folders-in-selected-folder/m-p/13609....  As requested, system details are as follows :

@markh93268350, you're on Mac and your screenshot shows that your external drives are incorrectly listed in the Folders panel under Macintosh HD/Volumes. So you're likely experiencing the same symptoms as in this other bug thread:

https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-bugs/p-catalog-will-open-in-12-1-but-not-12-2-folde...

The workaround that appears to work for those on Mac is to roll back to LR 12.1. 

[Abigail28583633n332]

Another problem as fallout from doing a rollback to v12.1:  Now I have two drives that have a green icon next to them.  I suspect this indicates they are online which I do not want.  How do I fix this?

[Sean McCormack]

Green beside a drive means they're connected and have plenty of storage available. 

[Abigail28583633n332]

The problem is that the drive shows up twice and neither iteration has all the folders and sub folders in it. The green drives are floating by themselves and not where they should be.

I had an interesting experience today with a friend’s Lightroom Catalog.  This was all done by Zoom, so I could see her Lightroom, and can verify most of what seems to be happening…

Few month old Mac of some sort, recently updated to LR 12.2.

A while back, she used a 6TB external HDD for her images.  A couple months ago she switched to a 12TB external HDD.

The 6TB was “named” “Gdrive for Photos”. 

The 12 TB was also “named” “Gdrive for Photos”.

Not sure if this is meaningful in Mac-world or not.

She SAYS she doesn’t remember COPYING anything from the 6TB drive to the 12 TB drive.  I don't SEE any of the folders that are on the OLD Gdrive for Photos in the NEW Gdrive for photos.  There DON'T appear to be any duplicate months - at least none that I saw.  So she may NOT have copied the 62,000 images on the old Gdrive to the new one.  She for SURE didn't Move them in Lightroom.

Her organization is something named “Volumes” (or possibly Volume), inside of that is the NEW Gdrive for Photos with years inside that and months inside that.

Then the SECOND, OLD, Gdrive for Photos with Years and months inside that.

So in Lightroom, she suddenly had TWO “folders”, both named “Gdrive for Photos”, but the system worked.  She insists that she could work normally in EITHER of those “folders”.  One had 62,000 images (the OLD, 6TB one), and the other (NEW 12TB) had 8000 images.

BUT, there was only one, actual, PHYSICAL, 12TB external HDD plugged into Lightroom.  She still insists she could see all the images in EVERY folder, could open images, manipulate them, and everything worked fine.  I'm not sure HOW this was possible, but she SAYS it worked.

THEN she updated to Lightroom 12.2.  And suddenly she can’t see ANY images in ANY folder.  There are NO question marks, no errors, NOTHING unusual.  You can see in old Gdrive there’s a 2022 with February.  And you can see that February has 33 images.  BUT if you SELECT February, Lightroom says there are NO images.

The NEW Gdrive ALSO has a 2022, but NO February.  But you can go do 2022 in the new Gdrive and click on July, and get the same response from Lightroom.  No images.

Library filter is off, everything else I could think of was done to try to see images.  Can't create a folder in the old Gdrive, or import into a folder or delete images or remove a folder.  She CAN import into folders in the NEW Gdrive folder tree.

If you look in a folder that has images in it in the NEW Gdrive (it has the be the MOST RECENT import), you can do a "Go to folder in library" and it DOESN'T go to the folder into which the images were imported, it goes to the "Volumes" (or Volume) folder.  THAT folder, in Lightroom CAN SEE all 70,000+ images, but NO child folder of Volumes can - no errors, no question marks no 0 counts, just not workiing.

Checking physically, in the “Volumes>Images” folder there IS a single folder structure that contains all the images.  So there’s a 2022 folder in which there’s February, in which there are images.  The images are there and safe, but Lightroom doesn’t see them.

She CAN import new images, but you can’t remove a folder, you can’t delete images, you basically can’t DO anything in Lightroom.

After a couple hours of trying everything I could think of, I told her it LOOKED like some kind of corruption.

Went into the Library filter and Metadata Status and resolved the conflicts, mismatches, and unknowns on a couple thousand of the 70,000 images, made sure all the metadata had been written, and had her create a NEW catalog in a NEW location.

She then imported all her images (or is currently importing), and hopefully things will work.

SO, A REALLY LONG EXPLANATION to ask a simple question…  This is a Mac, with which I’m not real familiar.  The OLD catalog is safe, just sitting there.  Is there ANY way y’all can think of that I’ve likely MISSED, that would enable us to get the OLD catalog with all her collections and stuff working again?  Or, is it just time to learn from the mistake and move on with the new catalog?
