Searches Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi, I downloaded the trail but it says "trial expired" but I haven't even opened it as yet. Please can you help? I need to appraise this for potential use for a current and future projects. Also, if we decide to go ahead, is it possible to purchase the disk? Many thanks!

Staff MEB Posted February 10, 2016 Staff Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi Searches, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Do you have installed a previous trial before? If you did that's probably the cause it's now expired. I believe the current trial wasn't updated to 1.4.1 yet so it may be possible that we reset it again in the next update but i can't guarantee this. If not there isn't much you can do, sorry. Regarding the disk question, no, currently Affinity apps are only available for purchase trough the Mac App Store.

Searches Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Thank you for coming back so quickly. I thought the countdown would begin when I opened the programme (as opposed to downloading), so I've made a mistake here. Do you know when the next update is going to be?

Searches Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Please could you let me know how many licences you can get with this programme? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted February 10, 2016 Staff Share Posted February 10, 2016 There should be a small update soon (1.4.2) to fix a few remaining issues with the current MAS version, then we move on to 1.5 but there's no ETA for it yet. You can use Affinity apps on up to five computers for home use, or on two for commercial use, if you login in the Mac App Store app with the same Apple ID used to purchase the application in the first computer. For volume licensing check out this page. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software | Affinity Quick Reference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searches Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Thanks that's useful to know - I can see Affinity Photo on the Mac App Store site, but not Affinity Design: http://www.apple.com/uk/osx/apps/app-store/ Will the licenses not be credited by buying Affinity Design directly from Affinity? Or are you saying this only applies when purchased from the App store. If so, can you tell me how I might purchase it to get the licence as you describe?

Staff MEB Posted February 10, 2016 Staff Share Posted February 10, 2016 This license only applies to software purchased trough the Mac App Store. Currently there's no other way to purchase our apps. To buy Affinity Designer click here, then on that page click on the blue button View in Mac App Store below the icon. It will launch the App Store app on your Mac where you can purchase it clicking on the Price button below the icon on the top left. Still in the App Store app you can easily find Affinity Photo clicking on the link below More Apps by Serif Labs on the bottom right.

Searches Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Thanks, so if I purchase via the link you gave above, that will cover either 5 licences for home use, or 2 commercial, correct? If more were wanted would it be better to go and purchase via the Volume licensing link you sent from the start/ie. now? My Apple ID is personal, so if another in the company wants to use the 2nd ID can they go via the volume licensing link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searches Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Could you tell me how much the volume licensing is for Affinity Designer? You virtually have to enrol to find out more information. At this stage I am only trying to find out information... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
