I think the problem are the apostrophes: '

Quote:/Volumes/Photo's 2/My Lightroom photo's 2019/2021-02-10 Leed's Utah and more/untitled folder/Timelapse's/Leed's and more

You shouldn't use them in folder names because many programs interpret them as quote signs.

So rename your folders to:

/Volumes/Photos 2/My Lightroom photos 2019/2021-02-10 Leeds Utah and more/untitled folder/Timelapses/Leeds and more

I'm no native English speaker, but in my opinion nearly all of those apostrophes are grammatically wrong anyway :-)

Yes! and No! English has some differences in many circumstances.

But I see your point and thanks and will address this I've been using them for years now I've got to change my way's :-(

Maybe this helps you, which characters you should not use for folder/files names. The link does not onyl apply to web folders:
