Photos unable to upload

Hi,


When I import some RAW files to Photos from my Lumix S5 camera (.rw2) I get a “Unable to upload” tab on the left.


I have tried relogging to iCloud on Mac but it didn’t help.

When I import same files to my iPhone they get uploaded fine and appear on my Mac as well.


It used to work fine on Mac as well.

I’m on Ventura.


Any ideas?

The RAW format of your camera is supported in Ventura (Digital camera RAW formats supported by iOS 16, iPadOS 16, and macOS Ventura - Apple Support). Do you perhaps have recorded some videos on the camera as well? Incompatible videos might be blocking the upload of your Raw files.


Another reason for "Unable to upload" might be, if your Photos Library is in an unsupported location. Are you keeping the library on an eternal volume or in your Pictures folder?
