Can't access "Photos" from Collage Maker program, which previously have on old MacBook Air

I have a new Macbookpro and have always accessed photos and its albums from Pearl Mountain, Picture Collage Maker but I in my new one I cant get access to them from there. I can find them in Pictures when I open finder, previously they were under their own TAB but are now within the picture TAB, Imt not sure how to move them from their either. Any help appreciated.Thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Previously when adding photos to the Picture Collage Maker they used to appear under Media in folder, now the library appears under "pictures" but this isn't available to add photos from when using Picture Collage Maker as it used to be from "libraries" on the MacBook Air. Photos attached Thanks

Hi


I am a little confused by you saying you can access them from finder. Normally you can't access photos in the photos app from finder. And what do you mean by "picture TAB" (I assume you mean finder TAB which has the pictures folder open?). You aren't using "view package contents are you"?


Or do you have your photos saved as individual files and folders inside the pictures folder?



When you were previously able to access your photos, precisely how did this work?

1st picture is where the photos appear now.

2nd Picture is an example of where I used to access them

3rd is how the option was to add to Picture Image maker through(libraries)

4th Shows my options now, can't access Photos or albums, have to add and individual photo to picture.

OK - you are now talking about what is available in the user interface of the collage maker app - which few here will know anything about.


My best suggestion is to export the photos you need (using the photos app - file>export) to a temporary folder, and then access them from the collage maker app from that folder. Failing that, you'll need to get help from the developers of collage maker.
