iCloud photo albums not syncing to my mac

Why are iCloud photo albums not syncing to my mac? If I send a new photo from another device the mac does not see it in Activity or shared albums. I have rebuilt the Library several times but it keeps happening

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Can’t sync raw photos I used to use my Canon 5D III to take my family photos in RAW format. In order to collect a full album of my two kids I used Photos to import the RAWs and edit them. Once I completed the edit then I will sync them to my iPhone. However recently I found this practice no longer worked. I can still import and edit the RAWs but can’t sync to my iPhone. I have tried to create a new system library and transfer all my photos to the new library it’s worked only for once and the problem persists.

In PHOTOS how to expoert and import photos in sequence? Hello, I am getting more and more disappointed by apple mainly around PHOTOS & iCloud, so many things do not work .... it is crazy). I try to do something very basic: 1. Export (from MAC A) an album in sequence (the album is defined in a manual sequence) 2. Import that album in another MAC B (PHOTOS) and display it in the same sequence as the original Of course I export in sequence (pic 1, 2, 3, 4, etc) but when I import it goes total out of sequence and given I have a lot of albums I see there is no apparent logic, one display 1,2,3 and then 656, 657, and then 11 etc. The other album something totally different. Also it is not the classical issue of 1, 10, 11….19, 2, 20, 21 etc If someone has an idea it would be great ! Seems that Apple can't event do this.... thx Regards, Michael
