kirkt Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I purchased Photo and Designer a while ago through the Apple App Store and purchased Publisher through the Affinity webstore. I just was able to download Publisher (congratulations Affinity!) and have found that Studiolink does not "see" my installs of Photo or Designer. Do the App Store and Affinity Store versions of these applications play nice through Studiolink, or will I have to purchase Photo and Designer again through Affinity to get the Studiolink functionality? Thanks, Kirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkt Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 I apologize - it looks like this topic has been covered, with the answer being that I need to update the App Store versions to the latest version (1.7.1) of Photo and Designer, which are available now. The Mods can delete this topic if they would like. Kirk Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper-V Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I have the latest 1.7.1 versions, and Publisher doesn't see them for me either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloiseA Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I have the same problem. and I already pay for Affinity Publisher. I purchased Photo and Designer a while ago through the Apple App Store and purchased Publisher through the Affinity webstore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirkt Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 Try: 0) Open the App Store and make sure that you do not have updates for AP or AD pending. 1) Restart your Mac. 2) Launch Publisher, Designer and Photo so they are all running. Then, in Publisher, drag an image onto the page (create a new document if you have not already), select the image and click on the Photo persona button in the upper left corner of the Publisher window. You should get the Photo tools to edit your image as if you are in Affinity Photo. The ability to dip in and out of the various personas all within a single application is next level stuff. Nice work Serif folks. Kirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petr Stark Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I did that. AP doesn't recognised by the Studionlink again. AD works just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasper-V Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Nope! Definitely the latest 1.7.1 versions, still doesn't work after a restart. (And for some reason the Edit in Designer/Photo are greyed out in Photo & Designer.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petr Stark Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Yes. I agree. I deleted both 1.7.1 AppStore versions (AD and AP), installed them again, restart the computer, Studio link still doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aammppaa Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Make sure you have opened and closed a document in both Photo and Designer - that has helped some people.

Kasper-V Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 No good. I've shut down and restarted my laptop -- instead of just restarting -- and opened all three apps, opened the same Publisher file in all three in turn, but still no joy. I'm going to read a book and hope it all goes away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aammppaa Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Did you try deleting the .appinfo files in C:\ProgramData\Affinity\Common\1.0\appinfo\Release as described in the post linked above?

Please check that you have installed the (recently released) 1.7.1 updates of Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer from the Mac App Store and run each of them at least once after updating. kirkt 1 Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!
