As far as I know, but will confirm later, Yes he can see them on the phone (not sure yet about PC viewing), and they were given to me on a USB drive, yes all transferred the same way. Will confirm everything later. Since I started the conversion, I have managed to do roughly 200-250 but now AFP crashes immediately. EDIT : As an update MEB, I have managed to convert them all with only two or three corrupt files showing up using the app iMobie HEIC Converter which seems to work flawlessly, so not sure why AFP was having a problem. Thank you for your support throughout.

They are from an iPhone and I can't find out which model / iOS and I can't contact him till later. When I find out I'll post it. Initially the Batch option worked, then bombed halfway through now crashes everytime. (EDIT) : iPhone 7 on iOS 12.5.x

Thanks MEB for your reply. It seems to have been 2 or 3 rogue HEIC files causing this. All the other files AFPhoto has converted successfully. I did try your Get Info suggestion and Preview will not open any of them however, just grayed out see attached PNG. I wasn't using the batch job function, I'm new to AFPhoto and couldn't find the option to use that. I'm trying to find the rogue files to replicate this problem. Thanks for the reply. I am however getting this response trying to open an HEIC file now.

I have quite a few HEIC files to convert to JPGs. AFPhoto (1.9.1) has done around 100 or so but now crashes repeatedly and won't open any. The same for AFDesigner and AFPublisher. I'm running OS 10.11.6 so I realise that's an older OS but I don't understand why it worked for a while and now doesn't. Is this a bug or have I missed something? Depending what Finder folder view I select they show either SFPhoto icon or Mac EXEC icon. Not sure if that is significant. Any suggestions very welcome.

Would someone from Affinity care to comment?

Thanks Mike - very helpful.

I know this is asking a lot, but when the Affinity Publisher eventually hits the street, it would REALLY helpful if it could open InDesign files? Rather than let Markzware get there first. I hate Adobe subscription and I don't want to go back to Quark.

That's perfect, thanks chaps. You're right about ID2Q, it works well but it's not 100%. Anyway, have purchased Photo and Designer, so I'm in. Thanks for the replies.

Hi Forgive me if these questions have been asked, but I want to kiss Adobe goodbye and jump on board the Affinity train. I'm still using CS5 InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop on Mavericks + CS6 on my MacBook Pro. Using Affinity Photo, Design and Publisher (when it's released), will all Adobe files be completely compatible? Will all the attributes be maintained and are there any known issues relating to specific formatting, either text, blends or clipping paths - you catch my drift I'm sure. Ocassionally I produce work for an digital print house who use CS6, so if I create something in o

Hi, I'm Howard, I've been a self employed graphic designer since the 80's (actually I started in the early 70's). When computers were invented I started off with Quark v3 / Macromedia Freehand and moved on to InDesign / Illustrator about 6 years ago. I DON'T like Adobe's greedy pricing policy and especially their horrible subscription and where $1200 = £1197 for CS6. I want to upgrade my MacPro to Mavericks from Snow Leopard so my CS5 may not work. Your software was brought to my attention 2 days ago and it looks great I must say.
