Cannot get Affinity 2 to Work on My Mac

[ElBeardo]

Using Affinity2 on my mac does not work as it keeps looking for another Mac I no longer have. Keep getting message There was a problem connecting to the server “Tony’s iMac (168)”. The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection and then try again. When I first started using Affinity the Mac168 was my main computer networked with a second Mac. Mac168 stopped working and was removed from my network I now have only one Mac. I have no problem running Affinity1 on my remaining Mac but ever since Affinity 2 came out I have not been able to get it to work. Every so often I search to see if I can find anything that may be causing the problem but so far no success Has anybody had the same problem and have a solution

Hi, there's an FAQ for this problem:

If that doesn't solve it, try starting Affinity while holding down Ctrl (press and hold it immediately after clicking the icon). In the window that appears, select Clear User Defaults (deselect the other two options) and then click the Clear button. That should hopefully resolve the issue for you.

Good luck.
