I used to be able to attach my iPhone to my iMac and synch photos from the Photos app to photo albums on my iPhone. I have done something that now only allows me to synch from a folder on my iMac to the iPhone. What could it be?
How are you trying to sync? What are your iCLoud settings on the Phone - you may have iCloud Photo Library enabled on the phone and if youo do you can not import or synce any way except using ICPL on the Mac too - it needs to on on both or off on the phone

I found the problem. In Photos preferences >General > library Location I had "use as system photo library" clicked on.
When I turned it off (grayed out). the problem went away.
Thanks for your help.
which system version do you have installed on your Mac and on your iPhone?
High Sierra version 10.13.3 on my iMac & Version 11.2.6 on my iPhone X
Thank you for your response.
On my iPhone iCloud is on for Mail, Contacts, Calendars but off for Photos.
I do not use iCloud Photo Library on my iMac.
Actually when it is dimmed out that library is set as the system library - if it is bold then you click it to set the system library
Only the system library will sync

I can no longer synch from iMac photos to photos on my iPhone
