This is one of the unfortunate cases where investigating the issues took so long, it would have been much faster now for me to rebuild it right away.įYI, I have looked into the following posts: I had issues with TM and external drives a couple years ago, thats why I didn't use it. Their 'advice' was to manually rebuild the library and use TimeMachine so that there is not only one backup but the history included.

The engineers didn't come up with anything/they don't really offer database repair.

It seems like I actually have already opened this library on BigSur as I just tried to open it with a Catalina Mac, which resulted in an error message, saying I would need to update the OS. Imported problematic images into a new library, there they show up as normal.Create another admin account and open the library there.Change the library to the system library.Further things that we tried, all to no avail: I have updated macOS to version 11.2.3 to no avail. As suggested in this thread delete the corrupted libraries, then copy them back (really unsure how this would help though).Copy my currently not-updated backup to an older Catalina Mac, hope it can be opened there.I have a couple more options/ideas up my sleeve, however, they will take a lot of time, so maybe someone here already knows a better/faster fix/idea than the following: My question is: Does anyone know how I can effectively get these blanks to disappear, without having to manually reimport all photos? ICloud is not enabled on this library and it is not the system library The backup I have copied has definitely not yet been opened on Big Sur I have opened a library after the Big Sur update without problems, but I am not sure if I have opened this library on Big Sur

MBP 15' from 2017 with macOS BigSur 11.2.1īoth external drives have about 1TB of free storage, their total size is 4TB (Cocoa-error-1), this time including Portraits

Tried to export ( not the original) fails with The process couldn't be finished.

Tried to export the original image and video, both fail with unknown error (4), yet some Portraits seem to be exporting fine.

Waited about half an hour to display a blank image, no change.

No change there (the blank images seem to be the same for both libraries)

Copied the backup onto my work drive, opened it and it was updated as well.They seem to be totally random, however all photos taken before march 2015 are fine (I am probably reading into this, but Photos.app was introduced April 2015). Further, these photos are not camera-, location-, face-detection- or file name-specific. However, all media is still in the library package (opened the files in Preview, no problem there) and all metadata (location, tags, lens info, date) is fine, too. In full screen mode, the images appear blank: Browsed through the photos, realized that there were many blanks:.Photos started to update the library (no problems, took about half an hour or less).opened my fairly big (1TB) photos library (stored on an external drive, backup/copy on a different external drive).
