ramitche Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 (edited) Hello, I've been trying for a couple days to download the latest version of Affinity Photo on the App Store to no avail (spins indefinitely). Is this a known issue? Is there any corrective action I can take? I've tried to restart my Mac, logout and login to the App Store. Same issue on laptop. I've had no issues in the past with upgrades -- I'm currently running 1.9.0 on MacOS. Thank you, Russ Edited February 27, 2021 by ramitche Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazmondo77 Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I'm guessing you're on Mojave? if so the app store in mojave seems to be a bit broke (was working great a week ago) here's a work around to temporarily get the app store to get downloading again: On 2/26/2021 at 7:44 AM, Dazmondo77 said: For any other Mojave users who have had trouble with the MAS hanging on all downloads (for me on two different macs running Mojave) I found a solution that worked from a user (User366) on stack exchange, that sorted the app store: APP Store Fix Go to Activity Monitor and force-kill appstoreagent process. The app started to download at once. After force-killing appstoreagent, there was no need to log out and log in again in the App Store. Updates and downloads just work again. Hope this helps Now have Pub Des Pho working great on both Macs - Great work team ramitche 1 Quote Mac Pro Cheese-grater (Early 2009) 2.93 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon 48 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC Ram, Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 580 8GB GDDR5, Ugee 19" Graphics Tablet Monitor Triple boot via OCLP 1.4.3 - Mac OS Monterey 12.7.3, Sonoma 14.1.1 and Mojave 10.14.6 Affinity Publisher, Designer and Photo 1.10.5 - 2.4.0 Betas 2.5.0(2430) www.bingercreative.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
