Mac Photo says downloading but never does
I have had Photos open for weeks now on my Macbook Pro 2018. Most but not all photos I take with my iPhone 10 show up but not all. When I look at the bottom of my Photos app on the Macbook it reads "Downloading 78 Originals Pause." That number has grown over the last few weeks from 12 to now 78 but some photos are there and some are not. However, after days of leaving it open these images never download to Mac Photos app so the photos on my iPhone are not syncing consistently to Photos app. I have tried closing and opening Photos and restarting my Macbook. I don't see any storage or memory issues and not sure what else to do. I looked at all settings and all are set up correctly to sync with iCloud.
