AntC Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Hello all! So, I bought Affinity Photo a while ago, and have switched from mac to windows. I was very sad to see that I have to buy Affinity Photo for windows again. Please, can you add something on your website that allows you to switch your product from mac to windows, or vice versa? It can be free or cost a small fee (like $5). With this, introduce a patch that detects which OS people are using AP on. If they switched and they are still using their old OS (to have AP on both devices), kick them out with a message. Sorry if this is asking too much, I just want to see this implemented.

Pšenda Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I bought a gasoline car, and now I'd like to run on diesel. Please replace my engine for free or $5 :-) Quote Affinity Store (MSI/EXE): Affinity Suite (ADe, APh, APu) 2.4.0.2301 Dell OptiPlex 7060, i5-8500 3.00 GHz, 16 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630, Dell P2417H 1920 x 1080, Windows 11 Pro, Version 23H2, Build 22631.3155.

Not true; there are many software licenses which are purchased as cross-platform. This does vary quite a bit however, and is not the case with the Affinity programs. For various reasons I rather doubt this will change anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one bit of software which will travel with me should I choose to change platforms but it cost much much more than all three Affinity applications in toto. Plus the change from one Mac to another Mac requires some back and forth with the software firm to get the new machine registered and the old one delisted. Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
