pondfish Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 My TIFF files made with Affinity Photo are not displayed in Apple programs including Photos, Finder and Preview. This seems to happen to files made after a certain date some time this year. The Apple tech I talked to said there seemed to be a fix by Affinity Photo. I cannot find it. How do I get this issue fixed? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSN Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I also have tiff export problems and waiting to learn of a fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonatoF Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 See this topic: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/22829-tiff-files-not-displayed-by-os-x-10116/ Basically, a change in the Mac OS broke the way AP was exporting tiffs, they fixed it in the 1.5 beta but not (yet?) in the production Apple Store version. I really wish they would release a fix for the production version since 1.5 will be in beta for a while and I prefer to use the production version rather than beta.

DonatoF Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 At the moment, you have two choices to produce large tiffs: 1) use the 1.5 beta, abandoning the 1.4.2 version and hope you don't run into any issues 2) do all your work in 1.4.2 and save the .afphoto file, open the .afphoto file in the 1.5 beta and export the tiff from there. I'm using the second as my current workflow, making sure to work on a duplicate of the .afphoto file or not make any changes to it in the beta. I will say the betas are pretty stable, and you may not run into issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pondfish Posted September 18, 2016 Author Share Posted September 18, 2016 Thank you DonatoF. I will try your suggestion. However, I have older TIFF files with no saved .afphoto backup. Will I be able to open them in 1.5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
