Only empty frames visible in Photo app

Hi everybody,

I changed my Harddrive to a 1 TB SSD and after

migrating, it started with indexing my library and does show some older photos. But as I chose the "all Photos" view the recent pictures are only shown as empty frames. No photo can be seen. When I double click them, they will show up correctly, but I don't see them in the overview.

Thank you very much for any help on this issue.


MacBook Pro 15" (mid 2012), 1 TB SSD

Most likely the the migration process is not yet completed and Photos has not yet generated all thumbnails. Depending on the size of your library, migration and iCloud upload could easily take many hours, or even days.


One way to test is to select one of the blank thumbnails. It's migration should then "jump the line" and dusplay the image shortly afterwards.
