Elbowz Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Please can you help me? I purchased the complete suite of Affinity Designer, Publisher and Photo on 29th November 2024 and have just discovered that I can’t save my work as the Affinity (Designer in this case) is stating READ-ONLY. I’m not at all techy, so I'm appealing for very clear and accountable advice please on how to remedy this? When I open the software on my Mac mini (OS Sonoma 14.6.1) it alerts me… "This item is on the disk image “affinity-photo-2.5.6.dmg”. Safari downloaded this disk image on 29 November 2024. Apple checked it for malicious software and none was detected.” I’m unsure if this is the problem or not. Please help me. Quote
MikeTO Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Hi @Elbowz and welcome to the forum. It sounds like you're trying to run Affinity Photo from inside the DMG file each time rather than from an installed version in your Applications folder. Here is how to install it from the DMG: https://store.serif.com/en-us/help/installation-guide/ Then make sure you eject (unmount) the DMG file so you don't run the application from inside it by clicking the Eject (Unmount) button beside the DMG's name in a Finder window. If this isn't the issue and you aren't running Affinity from inside the DMG file, please let us know. Good luck Callum 1 Quote Download a free PDF manual for Affinity Publisher 2.5 Download a quick reference chart for Affinity's Special Characters Affinity 2.5 for macOS Sequoia 15.3, MacBook Pro (M4 Pro) and iPad Air (M2)
