Arcadian Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I gifted my wife my Macbook, and she is trying to install her copy of Affinity Publisher. Even though she purchased the program on that Mac, and has an Affinity account, the program won't install because (I guess) the Mac was registered to me, Affinity is not recognizing the purchaser but the computer. She installed her copy of Affinity Photo on the Mac, but it won't let her install Publisher. Need some help, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Did you deauthorize the MacBook before giving it to your wife and did she then authorize it for her account at the Mac App Store? Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadian Posted June 19, 2019 Author Share Posted June 19, 2019 I deleted most of my files when I gave the Mac to my wife but no, I didn't deauthorize anything and don't know how, nor was I aware that it needed to be authorized at the App store. Could you tell me how those steps are done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
