dbs don’t show tables in schema (no replies)

HI,

pretty new to SQL, hence probably my amateur issue.

I have downloaded a couple of databases and querried them, so that these show up on the left side in SCHEMAS. However, the tables in each database seem to be empty. If I refresh everything it says FETCHING for a second without doing anyting. I cannot open any tables as there is no arrow in front of the table.

I am using MySQL Community Server 8.0.17 and MySQL Workbench 6.3.10 (the newest version gives an error upon starting the app) on 10.12.6 MacOS Sierra.

I have downloaded multiple versions, tried dbeaver etc. Everywhere the same issue.

Any ideas?

Thanks
