Lightroom Classic: Fails to import photos and stalls out on macOS 10.15 Catalina
When attempting to import photos from my Nikon D850, Lightroom Classic states it is importing photos but status bar is not progressing and no photos are being imported. Restarted system and program along with camera and still has issue. This is all been occurring with macOS Catalina 10.15.

There's no version of Onyx for Catalina yet, otherwise I'd suggest running that when it's available: https://www.titanium-software.fr/en/onyx.html

Venting
Why are so many Adobe customers going all first implementer and upgrading to Catalina v1
Adobe has publicly recommended we do not do this
Various Tech Reporters have recommended waiting.
Standard industry (I.T.) practice is never ever install v1 on critical computers
Congrats, you are now an Apple Beta round 2 tester

Actual inquiry
1 Photo shoot
Is this particular photo shoot a larger set of photographs to import than normal. Importing 1000 photos takes more time than 200, and the difference may not be linear.
Is this particular photo shoot involving RAW as opposed to in camera JPEG
2. Hard drive space
The hard drive your catalog is on. How much space remains free? Needs to be at least 20%
Did that upgrade eat up lots of start disk space and not free it up after the upgrade?

Are you connecting the camera to the computer to import those photos?
Try a card reader
Would not be at all surprised if Catalina might have issues with an attached device, in that case your camera.

However, on LR (Cloud version) on my MacBook, preview is possible with exactly the same SD card inserted.

And Adobe support is like "Meh, you're using Catalina, not compatible". At least at got a shot at starting a trial of Capture 1, which is actually pretty good... and can read a SD card.

I've spent many thousands of bucks on Adobe products over the years - when the issues with Catalina became apparent, the least they might have done is send their customers a head's up via email - or a message via the Adobe apps that I pay $30/month for.
