AdventurousDrake Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 ... if I create a new Affinity document on MAC it's fine, just none of the PC files, I've tried 4 different ones so far. I'll attach a PC file and the Error Message. Feels like a bug to me, but I could be wrong. (Both PC Win10 and Mac versions are 1.10.4) Any help is greatly appreciated.

AdventurousDrake Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 I use Qsync with a Qnap NAS. But my PC is disassembled right now, so I cannot copy in any other way. I am working directly to the NAS at all times, so all my files are like that. It should not affect the file as far as I know. (I save it to the local Qsync folder on the PC, and then it just syncs it over the network to my NAS) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 The file appears to consist of zeros for bytes. No information, no header. Nothing everywhere. 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...

AdventurousDrake Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 So no one can open the file? PC or MAC? As I've been able to open and work on these files for months on my PC. Seems really weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdventurousDrake Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 There is a local Sync folder on my PC that syncs directly to my NAS, but the file is local on my C drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventurousDrake Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 @LondonSquirrel Ok, I hooked up my PC again, I did create a test file in Affinity Designer on the MAC earlier today, and that synced to my NAS and could open it on my PC no problem. Also The Aztec file opens on my PC as usual. Not sure where it's going wrong. I am going to try and save a different copy of the Aztec test file, and transfer it in a different way to see if I can open it one the MAC.

AdventurousDrake Posted November 5, 2021 Author Share Posted November 5, 2021 Ok, it seems to work now. It could be an OSX Monterey to Qsync issue. Qsync is telling me that it has synced all the files, but when I open a file from within Affinity Designer and go through the file system, then everything is synced again all of a sudden, and now all those files are working. Basically Qsync shouldn't even need to be running once it has synced, as the files are on my internal drive now. We'll see over the coming days and see how it goes. Was ready to sell the Qnap if it would have altered the files lol. Anyway, thanks to everyone that tried to help me out. If I find some other oddities I'll report back.
