Since Photos supplanted iPhoto, my photos do not show up in open file dialogs boxes. Instead, I get the completely unhelpful and inaccurate message, "Open Photos to see your photos in this list."
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
Found "Use as System Photo Library" button in preferences. It's the magical fix-poor-implementation button.

Not at all. iPhoto is still there.
For some reason "Use as system photo library" in preferences cannot be clicked on, does anyone know how to make the button so I can click on it?
It doesnt allow me any photos to show or even folders to choose from, I have tons of photos on here and have not changed anything....
What app displays that message?
If it supports the standard media browser, it should show the Photos.
What you describe seems to be you see Photos listed in the Media browser, but it has that message.
If you are seeing the Photos Library listed, but get that message, it seems the Photos Library is corrupt.
"Open Photos to see your photos in this list"
