STILL NO SOLUTION???!!! P L E A S E!!!!!

I still have the same problem. Today, when trying to open a RAW file (Olympus ORF, which I use for many years) from Apple Photo with Affinity Develop I got this error: "Cannot load representation of type PUEditingInitialPayloadTypeIdentifier". Please HELP!!!

No 'improved' compatibility with Apple Photo's???

Just viewed the functionality of Pixelmator Pro. The selection tool is less user-friendly as the one in Affinity Photo. But, it works well as Apple Photo plug-in. It also works with layers. So I will go for the trial version. And see what it'll bring to my workflow.

AF is a great product, but is was better - for me - when I used it as a Apple Photo Plug-in.

Ok, I will investigate the alternative workflow you mentioned. Nevertheless I would like to see the 'real thing' working again. When it worked I loved it very much!

Thanks, rhmb! So true. I have the same feeling. That it will never be solved. No priority at all. I consider to ask for a refund.'Being aware' - since a long time - has a deadline. When?

Dear Gabe, I am using the latest release version - 1.8.3 I can reproduce it. It happens with all edited pictures. With new documents it is no problem, since I don't open them from Apple Photo plug-in. See enclosed files in my earlier post. My operating system and version: OSX Catalina 10.15.4 ( I use Olympus ORF RAW files) What happened for you (and what you expected to happen): that the photo I worked on in Affinity Photo would look the same when I saved the edited photo back to Apple Photo Provide a recipe for creating the problem (step-by-step what you did): I used normal procedure: in Apple photo I opened the Affinity Photo plug-in, edited in Affinity Photo and closed the edited photo in Affinity Photo, back to Apple Photo to save changes. Screenshots (very handy) or a screen capture/video. Any unusual hardware (like tablets or external monitors or drives that may affect things) or relevant other applications like font managers or display managers: no Did this same thing used to work and if so have you changed anything recently? (software or hardware): Affinity Photo worked in the past, but since a few months it is very unpredictable with the Apple Photo plug-in. Most of the time (90%) the edited photo's in Affinity Photo can not be saved in Apple Photo again.

Yes, it's lasting too long.

Affinity Photo (1.8.3) after developing and editing a RAW (Olympus ORF) file is restored too dark. The saved PNG file by Affinity Photo is ok. See attached example. Please provide a solution. Thanks in Advance.

Since today, using Affinity Photo 1.8.3, Affinity Developer doesn't work with its Apple Photos plug-in. The picture file (ORF RAW) can open in Affinity Developer, changes can be made, but when restoring back in Apple Photos following message appear: "Editing with 'Affinity Develop' not possible. An unexpected error has occurred." Please provide a solution. Thanks in Advance. 45/5000

Looks great. Although, the only fix I would like to see for now is the Apple Photo's functionality! How come that there is no information about the status of this bug!?

I have the same problem since upgrading to Catalina. Very annoying....!! Affinity Photo 17.3
