photos from iCloud to photos for Mac

After upgrading to Catalina my photos from iCloud no longer get updated on my Mac's. My IOS devices all update fine, just not the Mac's. After many searches it seems there is no fix even though I'm running the latest version of Catalina with all available updates.


Any new suggestions?

Is iCloud Photos enabled in your Mac's Photos/iCloud preference pane?



Full upgrades sometimes change settings.

Is the iCloud online library complete? If so create a new, empty library, enable iCloud Photos and let it download all of the photos from the iCloud to your Mac. You may have to delete your current library from your boot drive if you don't have enough space to house both. You do have a backup of your entire boot drive, right?
