Could pls someone maybe has an idea on what is going on?

    Check that Lightroom Classic still has full disk access. A MacOS update can sometimes reset this.

      hi very kind but switching the toogles on, is worst . Full disk was off, but now is on, and lightroom can't open the Catalog. the rainbow wheel keep spinning.

       

      other suggestions ? thank you

      Full Disk Access is absolutely mandatory. Reboot your computer if you did not do that already. If Lightroom Classic still can't open your catalog, then there must be another reason for that. First try resetting the preferences: https://www.lightroomqueen.com/how-do-i-reset-lightrooms-preferences/ If that does not solve it, then try if Lightroom works with a new catalog (hold down the Cmd key while starting Lightroom). 

       


      thank you again, BUT nothing.

      when i close LrC "quit Lightroom" it close but than open up again, with the rainbow gear, and i have to force quit to close it completely. Due that Lightroom on my Mac is usign an external disk, the disk keep running until i stop by forcing it.

      I uninstalled and reinstalled LrC, nothing.

      I've tried to optimize catalog, no way, stays like ages without doing anything.

      Seems after the Sonoma update there's something missing between LrC and reading external disk.

      I've tried with permission full access disk, nothing.

      I don't understand what is goign on.
