Import>Downloads – nothing
Has anyone seen this icon attached to their Downloads folder in the Import window, please?
When I click on it, the folder is empty, but when I go to Finder and do the same thing, it’s full of the usual garbage that I forget about.
Just curious

Do you have more than one shared user on your system?

I suspect it’s a permissions-related icon. In Catalina (and maybe in Mojave as well, I can’t remember) Final Cut needs permission to access your downloads folder. If you haven’t given it permission there won’t be anything visible when you open the folder from the Import window.
How do you give it permission? I’m not sure; all I know is that I got a dialog box asking me to give Final Cut Pro X access to my downloads folder and I gave it. Once I did that I could see everything in the downloads folder.
