Does Photo 2 work on Mac Sonoma

[covehithe]

My Affinity 1.10.6 does not work on my MacBook running Mac OS  Sonoma. It crashes every time when loading the App.

For those interested crash report attached

Anyone on here successfully running Photo 2 ??

Maybe due to possible light UI usage here?

Photo v2 under Sonoma also has certain issues, do a forum search after that topic.

The problem is that program crashes before opening so unable to adjust White/Black UI

Looks to me that you didn't read the above referenced FAQ thread, as removing the APh UI setting from macOS via the macOS defaults system settings doesn't need a running APh app at all here!

So open the macOS Terminal.app and perform a "defaults delete com.seriflabs.affinityphoto" CLI command call ...

Quote

> defaults delete com.seriflabs.affinityphoto

... if that gives back a possible 'Domain not found' error when using the above Terminal command, then you have to delete the APh plist file manually. Perform therefor in the terminal then instead the following ...

Quote

> cd ~/Library/Preferences
> remove com.seriflabs.affinityphoto.plist

... OR alternatively navigate with Finder or some other macOS File Browser to "~/Library/Preferences" and delete manually the "com.seriflabs.affinityphoto.plist" property list file.

The issue "[macOS Sonoma] - V1 Changing User interface settings on Intel Mac can crash app and then prevent run up" (REF: AF-481) has been fixed by the developers in internal build "1.10.8.318". The Affinity Store and Mac App Store releases of Affinity v1.10.6 were found to not start when running in light UI. The update to Version 1.10.8 addresses only this specific issue, allowing the V1 range of Affinity software to work on Sonoma in both Light and Dark UI.

This fix is planned for inclusion in the next customer release of Affinity Photo, Publisher and Designer on macOS, 1.10.8 on the Affinity Store and Mac App Store.

This build is not yet available but we are trying to release this fix as soon as possible. When released this build will be announced in the announcements forum.

If you are already experiencing this problem in the Affinity store build, you will need to download the installer from the Downloads section your account on the Affinity Store, as the crash comes before the software can display any available updates.

If you still experience this problem once you are using build version 1.10.8 (or later) please reply to this thread including @Serif Info Bot to notify us.
