manja13 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Hi I have trouble saving a copy of my affinity designer file (.afdesign) into Dropbox as the Dropbox icon has disappeared overnight. I was able to do it before but this morning, the icon doesn't show. I can export share into Dropbox though but as a jpeg, pdf, tiff etc. Anybody encountered this problem? Any solutions? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Try going into Files app, select Edit, turn off Dropbox then turn it back on. Make sure you can access Dropbox via Files app, then try Affinity again. manja13 and Paul Mudditt 2 Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

manja13 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 What is Files app? Is that a separate app I can download free from App Store? I found a few with the name but not sure which is the one you are referring to. Please help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 The Files app is the file manager which Apple added in iOS 11. https://support.apple.com/HT206481 manja13 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.5.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manja13 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 Yes! Found the folder. It was somehow turn-off! Problems solved! Thank you! Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manja13 Posted January 2, 2020 Author Share Posted January 2, 2020 I’m having a problem where the Dropbox & Google Drive icons are muted, can’t click on it to save my files into. I’ve tried turning on and off. Still not working. What gives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Can you access Dropbox via the Files app? If not you may need to religion to Dropbox. Affinity accesses these cloud services via iOS Files app, so if that doesn't work it is nothing to do with Affinity Photo/Design. Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

manja13 Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Hi DM1 ok it finally worked after logging out and logging in a couple of times and quitting all apps. Thank you! However...next Q. Exporting to Dropbox or Google Drive doesn’t work on Export Persona. Has it always been this way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this was a bug introduced in the 1.7 release. It works local to iPad and to iCloud so I suspect Affinity haven’t given it a high priority. That said, bug fixes are well overdue!
