Have installed Topaz Studio 2 and it loads ok from AP. However it asks if I want to update yet it is the most recent Topaz version! Also there are no looks/presets available from within AP.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Colin

If it's greyed out it's because it was enabled already. Assuming you gave access to the whole disk you should see a  forward slash "/" in the first line in the Plugin Support Folders section. Let me check/test Topaz Studio 2 here to see if it's behaving the same way.

Yup, confirm there is a "/ "

Hi ColinG,
I'm sorry for the delay getting back to you. The plugin is behaving this way due to the sandbox restrictions on macOS (Mac App Store apps). It works correctly with non-MAS versions (including the Betas). Maybe it's worth contacting Topaz Labs and let them know about it.

Hi Colin,
That's really up to you. Some plugins do work with the Mac App Store version without issues unfortunately Topaz Studio doesn't. The version from our website do not display the erratic update dialogs and loads/displays the presets (Filters/Looks) as it should. I've also called other Topaz plugins from within Studio 2 running as a plugin in Affinity Photo (Adjust AI and Sharpen Ai) without issues. I haven't tested it extensively (and not yet on Big Sur which i hope to do this weekend) but from what i'm seeing seems there's no major issues.

Hi Colin,
The Mac App Store is managed by Apple themselves - we have no control over the apps sold there. Their apps also don't require serial numbers (the app is associated with customer's Apple ID). The only thing i can suggest is to contact Apple support directly, request a refund explaining the reason why you aren't happy with the purchase and buy it again through our website.
