Affinity Photo and Designer 1.6 have launched!

[qornel]

Still have no information in welcome board about bonuses  - same thing on designer

 

Edit. I finally found out how to show it up. Thanks!

[tomejohn]

I dont see where to get the  update to 1.6 OR the freebies, do you have to buy a new copy? I already have the 1.5.2

Hi tomejohn,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

I'm assuming you are using a Mac. To update the application open the Mac App Store app, go to the Updates tab on top then click the Update button in front of the app you want to update from the list below.

Hi MEB

I'm a Mac user and there are no updates showing on the App store, any suggestions?

[MEB]

Hi Delanson,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

Try these:

- press ⌘ (cmd) + R to refresh the Updates page
If the updates still don't appear:

- sign out of the Mac App Store, then sign-in again

If it also fails:

- drag the application from the applications folder to the Trash and empty it, then reinstall the app again from the Mac App Store. It will install the latest version.

Hi JOHNSCULLY,

Welcome to Affinity Forums

Please press and hold ⌃(ctrl) while launching the application from Launchpad (or from the Applications folder as you prefer) then press Clear from the dialog that will open. You may lose some prefs/layout customisation you may have made but this should fix the Preferences crash/issues. Let us know if you still have trouble.

Me Too!  Unable to open Affinity after installing update.

I tried to uninstall and then reinstall new from app store.  Same result.  Affinity still not working on Mac.  Mac and all software are all latest versions.

Thanks seems to have solved the preference problem

Managed to install and RUN latest update.  The fix worked - using 'control' and clearing user data.

Many Thanks to all.

I'm having the same issue when going into preferences. I'm also using Affinity Photo on Mac High Sierra

Just to say congratulations and many thanks Affinity Team! Really really enjoying playing with the free textures on some photos of flowers and digital paintings. Thanks again

Thanks for this update Affinity Team.

I am also wondering about this. There's really only one I would want to work in Affinity and that is Flaming Pear Flexify. Currently my only reason to go back into Photoshop CS6 after I edited my 360 images in Affinity.

Would be fantastic to get it working. I can see it, but the output preview is garbled and on clicking apply Affinity crashes.

regards, Frank

PS: already gave you my undying gratitude in the topic on the update bonus content

Hi,

I am new here, but is it just me, or are the downloads really slow?

Thanks,
