Synchronising photos to my iphone in finder

In finder my photos will not synchronize with my iPhone.

My music does.

Is this a bug in Catalina or?

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Hello JM415 and welcome to Apple Support Communities.


I see you're having some issue with syncing photos between an iPhone and the finder on a Mac running Catalina.


Were the photos originally added to the iPhone using iTunes? If that is the case, then they can't be synced back to the Mac.

"Photos and videos that you sync from your computer to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iTunes can't be imported back to your computer. "


Also note that if you are using some iCloud services, certain manual syncing options will not be available.
