    Are you importing from a camera or from files on your Mac?

    Something has to happen when you click the Import button.  Does the import window stay open, or does it close?  Do you see your Browser with no media?  Or what?

     

    One thing to verify, very common newbie things, are filtering in the Browser.

    Top right, verify search field is clear.  Click tiny X to the right of that field.

    Top left, verify the Filter menu is set to All Clips.

    Finally, verify what Event you're importing into, in the Import window.  Verify that is the Event you're looking at in the Browser.  They are not necessarily the same.

    Please take a screen shot of your Library list and Browswr  and post it so we can get a better sense of what's going on.

     

    THanks.
