Photos not showing up in safari when trying to upload.

Question

Photos not showing up in safari when trying to upload.

I am using Photos on my Macbook Air, iPhone and iPad. I am using the iCloud Photo library.

When I open Photos on my Mac I can see the photos I want to upload using safari to a website like Facebook. It happens on other webpages that allow for photo uploads.

When I go to Facebook to attach a picture I do not see them in the Photos viewer. I have made sure they are fully downloaded and not just thumbnails.

Anyone else having this problem?

the media browser can be slow to update - restart Photos and Safari and they should appear - and tell Apple as they need to address this - https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html

Thanks Larry. I had tried everything but restarting Safari. That did the trick. Hopefully this will be fixed in an update soon!

Hopefully - but do report to Apple as the squeaky wheel gets the grease
