Need to download older version for OSX.6.8 I have paid for.


Recommended Posts

Hi and welcome to the forums @Clem Art

It depends on where you purchased it from.If it is from the Mac App Store just sign in with the same Apple ID and download it, If it is from Serif's Store then you'll need to find the product key from when you purchased it.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Snow Leopard?!

Out of curiosity I booted my 2008 MacBook from Snow Leopard, and while I was able to successfully log into my App Store account, I'm getting this message when trying to install Designer or Photo:

We could not complete your purchase.

Affinity Photo can't be installed on [Macintosh HD] because Mac OS X version 10.9 or later is required.

Was there ever even a Snow Leopard compatible version in the first place? I was using Mountain Lion when I bought Designer in 2014.
Mac App Store versions 1.8.x still worked on Mountain Lion, the last time I checked, albeit always with quite a few UI display issues.

I don’t think so. As far as I’m aware, the MAS versions of the Affinity apps can run on OS X Lion and Mountain Lion but the Affinity Store versions need a later version of the OS.

Not the 1.9.0 release Alfred.

Lion and Mountain lion support stopped at 1.8.6 it was unavoidable. Those few MAS owners on the earlier OSs will not be offered the patch

The Big Sur compatible Xcode and some new functions meant it simply would not run
