WendoverMan Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I am trying to open a raw photo held in photos but I cannot get it to work. I am using the import from photos method in Affinity Photo for iPad. I tap on that and find and select the photo. It says it is loading but then nothing further happens. It does not appear for editing. Can anyone help please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 What RAW format is the image shot in? What method did you use to get it into photos (camera roll?. I have found that some large files can take a while to load so give it some time to do so. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

WendoverMan Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 Thanks for your reply. The photo was shot in CR2 RAW format and transferred from the camera using a lead connected to an iMac into Apple Photos library. I then tried to open the photo into Affinity for iPad on an iPad at which point I didn’t get any further. I don t think giving it time works. I’m not limiting the time given to import the photo.

Affinity iPad Student Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Wanted to share this in case it pertains to you. Need google drive though: If you have the image stored on google drive, import it directly from the safari browser. (Meaning go google drive) via your safari browser. Do not let the app itself do it, otherwise, will not be raw file. It’ll be the raw file if you download it directly from google drive via the browser. “Request desktop view” choose file, tap download arrow. Done. Just learned this yesterday myself. Works like a charm.

WendoverMan Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 Thank you for that Affinity iPad Student. I do do not use Google Drive though so ideally I’d like another solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
