Lightroom shows number next to album, but window says "This Album is Empty"

Lightroom 7.5 on MacBook Pro

I don't know how to use it, so I've been trying to create albums & folders, just sticking to sorting things for now. I've tried searching for photos I know are in there, but it always comes up empty. Then I noticed numbers next to the album names, but the window says "This Album is Empty." WHY?!

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Oh Geez! I didn't even pay attention to the categories. Sorry

I'm not sure exactly - you do have filters showing but nothing seems to be active. I do notice in the filter box at the top, it says "Search 2 albums." This tells me that you have more than one album selected on the left hand side. Can you try choosing a different one, then coming back to the Evan album only (next to the magnifying glass icon in the search box, it should say "Search Evan Michael").

Oh my gosh! Yes! That was it. I didn't even see there were filters up there. Thank you!

Glad to hear it's working now!
