    Updated to Beta 2 this morning and all working again. Totally forgot I was using Beta, usually the first thing I check... Thanks for the info and help everyone...

    Showing as up to date, latest public beta. If all else fails I will try going back to non-beta version.

    I have now tried several things, Saving to downloads folder, saving to external drive, saving to memory stick. Thought it may be the photo I was inserting so tried a different photo, same result. Tried drawing a rectangle rather than inserting a photo, same result. I have left it to see if it eventually saves, no change. Tried save as to a new file, same result. When opening a file and using save as without doing anything to the file, the file appears in the folder, but without thumbnail. Showing the Save document as bar without any change. If I then force quit and open the newly saved file I get the rainbow spinner and Photo eventually shows an error Failed to open document, The file appears to be corrupt.

    Since upgrading to version 2.6 I cannot save any work. Click save or save as and the bar appears, Save document as, sometimes it goes completely blue as though it has completed but does not do anything else. Activity monitor shows something is happening as numbers change but nothing too dramatic. It is like it is waiting for something.

    After installing the latest (2831) the thumbnails are working again. Whether you want to use the beta versions or not, once installed the thumbnails are working for all Affinity files.

    Hitting space on a file should bring up a large preview version rather than just showing the icon and name of the file.

    I installed all 3 apps, restarted and the icons are now showing which is a great start, this will allow me to work faster now. Unfortunately the quick view (hitting space to preview the file) just shows the icon and not a preview of the file. So one step closer but still work to be done...

    That was my next step, just installed Photo and now waiting for the other apps to install.

    the thumbnail itself is still showing as an icon but if I select the file and hit space at least I can see the thumbnail in the preview which is a step closer. @Affinity Info Bot

    Thanks Onno-r, I've had XnView installed for many years but don't often use it. Works great once you set to display all formats. Not as simple as finder but will have to do for now.

    So here we are still waiting, no news from Serif regarding our concerns. Work flow is now next to impossible without exporting a small jpeg next to each affinity file I create, but that has caused all sorts of issues as I then open the jpeg file rather than the affinity file, so either way I am wasting a lot of time which doesn't help me or my clients. Come on Serif at leats tell us a timescale for this fix...

    This has been real pain and should not be an issue considering every other app is still working. It has been almost impossible to work, and has definitely increased my workload trying to find and edit the right file.

    Yes since July when I first reported the bug and still nothing sorted, and Sequoia official release date was 16th September with no information or updates regarding this bug. Looks like Serif have put everything into moving over to Canva and have washed their hands of support, maybe they are all on holiday enjoying the spoils...

    Definitely not the only 7, this is something affecting all users that are on macOS 15, we are just early adopters that have reported the issue for affinity to start working on it. Just have to be patient as i am sure they are working on it easy for public release.

    This would be so useful as I produce packet designs for a seed company and it would be good to have a direct link to the individual product with planting details without having to first create png files for each of the different QR codes before data merging those individual images.

    Hi Hangman, I have tried this and it has always been set to save thumbnails. I'm thinking this is an issue with macOS Sequoia as it was working prior to the new dev update. But it is very frustrating as it becomes almost impossible to find the file I need to edit.
  19. dradept
    I have installed Dev Beta and now Public beta for macOS Sequoia and since installing it I no longer see thumbnails for my affinity apps. All I get is the Affinity logo, if I hit space to see a preview of the file it just shows the icon along with filename, size and last modified details. Have tried a reinstall and a complete removal and reinstall, I have also removed the com.apple.finder.plist file, but no joy. Is there anything that can be done to have finder show thumbnails and previews? Attached a screen grab showing that jpg, png files are working as expected but afphoto (and afdesign and afpub files) nothing. Any suggestions?

    I need to find and replace text but I cannot find the find and replace option. I am sure it was there in the previous version but it has vanished. Since the search options has also disappeared in the Help menu I have looked in every drop down and every side panel but have no idea where it has gone. Please help me find the find and replace.
  21. dradept
    Why has the search feature gone missing in the Mac version of Affinity 2.5.2 Click Help and type the function you need ie. find and replace, it then highlights all the options where those menu items are to be found. I am sure it was there the last time I looked. Now it takes forever to find something as I have to run through every menu and every option. Why has this disappeared? Will it return?

    Here is the firewall list and settings. Still occurring after all the updates.. just updating to 2.2 and hoping it will sort it out.. will also try turning off the firewall...
  23. dradept
    This is in my AVG preferences

    Hi Walt, Yes setting allowed apps in the firewall did seem to sort things out, but it did not last, and is still causing an issue today. It is impossible to open more than 1 of the 3 apps at a time, cannot load 2 at startup as this would cause the issue. All 6 apps (beta included) are in the allowed apps list. Not sure what else I can do other than be a little more patient and open apps one at a time with a delay in between.

    So I have discovered that this occurs when I have the Performance Display setting of Metal with Hardware acceleration on. I am using a Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019, 3 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5, 40 GB 2667 MHz DDR4 With Radeon Pro 570X 4 GB I updated the Display to OpenGL and I do not get the delay any more. Everything seems to work much faster, not sure why this is happening as I thought Metal was faster and more efficient. Won't be using Metal on Affinity Photo anymore.
