Help with Updating Affinity Designer for Mac


Recommended Posts

Hello. I purchased Affinity Designer and Photo back in 2016. I have never had an update option for either program. I downloaded Affinity Designer for a Windows computer today, created a .afdesign file, and now it's not opening on Affinity Designer on my mac because I'm assuming I haven't updated it in almost two years. 

I went through the steps I found in another forum topic on opening the file with ctrl and deselecting options, closing and resetting. Didn't seem to help anything. I really don't want to have to recreate the file on this computer. Please help.

Hello @vtoria

That's odd :S. Both programs normally inform you that there is an update available when they launch. That's even stranger because Mac and PC versions are handled by completely different companies. One Serif, one Apple.

Anyway, if you log in to your Affinity store account, you will be able to download the latest Windows version.

Both apps are up to version 1.65 

On the Mac, you will need to log in to your Apple store account, which should offer an update.

Windows PCs. Photo and Designer, latest non-beta versions.

Er ... that’ll be 1.6.5, not 1.65! ;)

BTW, there’s no need to log in for updates. You can get them here:

After logging in to the Mac App Store with the Apple ID that you used when making the purchases, go to the ‘Purchased’ tab where you will find a download button for each item.
