What does the sync status say at the bottom of the all photos view. Albums are synced last - so if it is still syncing your library, the albums won't appear until the sync is complete.


Here is mine (updated just now)



Also check if your library is set as your system library Circled button should be greyed out) and your icloud settings are as shown.
