Tried that. It did not work. It's a very thick-skinned bug. Waiting for bug fixing update. Apple rarely breaks down in terms of software, but when it does get stuck, it's very very hard to resolve. Like your activation issue in old iPhone, common iCloud issues, and my this photos issues.
No matter what i tried, it just would not read photos and videos. Sometimes it does detect few, but most of the times, it does not detect any.
