can't access photos from FB

Is there a fix for this issue? The request from photos in media, requests I open the app to access the photos. Even when I do I can't access the photos.

Confirm that your primary Photos app is designated as your System library. Launch Photos > go to Preferences > then General.


If the Use as System Photo Library button in Photos preferences is grayed out, it means this library has already been designated as a System Library (i.e., the button is not active). If not, active it.
