Attach photos with MacBook Pro Big Sur Mail App

Hi.

Can't attach photos

I have had this problem with my Mac Mail App for a few years now.

I try to attach a photo from my photo library, but the problem is that when the window opens where I can browse my photos, it only shows a handful of random photos from my library. So every time I need to send a photo from my photos, I first open my photo album and from there I send photos I want and choose email.

Problem fixed

Last time I contacted Apple support about this, the problem was fixed with me creating a new user to my Mac, and deleting the previous one. So I guess the problem was with the user account. Singning in and out of Apple ID did not help.

Problem came back

Now I noticed that the problems has reoccured. The problem is also with WhatsApp.

With Mac Messages there is no problem and I can attach photos from full library.

Suggestions for a fix

So last time problem was fixed by creating new account. Problem with this solution is, that I have to change all the settings again and it takes a while.
