When I click on photos the whole library is visible, if I want to attach a photo to an email when I click on photos I only get about 12 photos showing. It has photo booth written at the top. Any suggestions how I can view all my photos. Thanks

view all my photos and select the photo I want to attach. I think I have pressed a wrong button because I have never had any trouble with attaching photos in the past.Thanks

Hi Dot1101


Are you scrolling all the way down on the left hand side to the media section?


If you are, next check that your photos library is the system library. Open photos, and go to photos>preferences. In the general tab is the button that says "Use as system photo library" greyed out? If it is - you are OK, if not, then click it.
