only imports showing in photos

When I open Photos, only Imports is available - no means of going to Moments, Albums or anything else. Can anyone help?

MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

Which version of Photos are you asking about?

Photos on a Mac or Photos on an iPhone/iPad? This is not quite clear, sorry, because your question is in the forum for Photos on iOS devices ( iPhone/iPad ), but your signature says "MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)"


On a Mac, if you are only seeing "Imports" and no further controls to switch to other views, the sidebar may be missing, because the Photos window is too small.drag one of the corners of the Photos window to make it larger, until the sidebar appears. Then you can switch to albums or click Photos to go to the Moments.
