I just switched to All New Lightroom. I been sitting on this screen for 20 minutes. The loading circle constantly revolving around itself. Anyone have this issue?

    I have the same problem, but on Windows. I tried everything, and nothing seems to work.

     

    In my case, it starts to load but the "loading circle" simply disappears with only a quarter "loaded".

    "the same problem"  And the problem is exactly??

    I am not sure I understand from your screen-clips! They both seem to indicate you have a filter active to Search/Find one file by its Filename. That is not the Import screen.

    Do you not get the File Explorer Window to Import files when you click on (+) Add Photos?

    I had the exact same problem and nothing seemed to fix it, not wiping and reinstalling, not logging out and back in. I found references to a bad logon in my log files but signing out of creative cloud did not work at all. It turned out that I needed to completely reboot the computer and then it started working again. Lightroom CC somehow had stored a bad logon that I could only get rid of by rebooting. Very strange.

    What images have you imported?

    You can check what is in the cloud by logging in to your web app.

    I never used the cloud. Clicking that link provided, I only have one image in there. It doesn't show in the new lightroom cc.

    According to this, I should be able to add image when I click on the + button and have All Photos selected. No images are showing as you see from the previous image
