Can't open jpeg file on V2


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone.

 

I have been looking to see if there have been any other issues like mine reported, but I have failed to see any. I have just upgraded to V2 and the app won't open jpeg files. I have tried several, and I have tried them from different locations, always with the same result. Is this somewhat a common issue, am I just doing something wrong or none of the above?

 

Many thanks,

Stefan

  • Which of the apps and on which OS?
  • Does it throw exceptions or crashes?
  • Can it instead open other bitmap files (like PNGs), or at least then export as JPG correctly?
  • Did you already tried an app uninstall and reinstall?

All in all here more background information is neeeded in order to make some assumptions about that unusual behavior.

☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.8 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.8 ◆ OSX El Capitan
☛ Affinity V2.3 apps ◆ MacOS Sonoma 14.2 ◆ iPad OS 17.2

Publisher won't open JPEGs, you can Place a JPEG. The new beta of Publisher will open them. Photo and Designer will open JPEGs.

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.

And the Result is? Error/Warning message?

My apologies, I will provide better info:

 

The app is Photo.

The warning message was something along the lines of "Affinity Photo cannot open this type of file"

As I said further above, Affinity Photo and OS 13.4.1.

 

In any case, it is largely irrelevant since it has started to open every jpeg file nice and smoothly as soon as I quit the app and started it again. It seems to have been a minor glitch. I apologise for crying for help so quickly, without trying even the most basic stuff.

 

Many thanks.

Stefan
