  2. Nov 28, 2020 Open your RAR file. Open the app in which the RAR file is stored, then tap the RAR file. It will 'open' to a grey screen with the RAR file's name in the middle of the screen. Because iPhones don't have file managers, your RAR file is most likely in an email app or a cloud storage app.

Version 1.9 of the Affinity suite introduces the ability to install creative resources purchased from the Affinity Store directly into your Affinity apps, making it faster and easier than ever to start using your content.

Extracting your resources from a ZIP archive Downloads from the web may be provided in the compressed ZIP format and need to be extracted (decompressed) before they can be installed. You can do this by double-clicking the file on macOS, or by right-clicking the file and choosing Extract All on Windows. For those without deep pockets or who don’t want to own a Mac, here’s how to install macOS Catalina 10.15 on any custom build desktop computer. This hackintosh guide will walk through installing Catalina step-by-step from start to finish bundled into an easy copy-paste guide.

How to install content using the My Account feature

Your Affinity app must be version 1.9 or later in order to download content directly from the Affinity Store, and you must register and sign in to use this service.

Using the My Account feature, content can be installed manually or automatically. Mac os x 64-bit. A persistent Internet connection is not required to use installed content.

Registering your app

The registration window is presented the first time your Affinity app is opened. If you deferred registration at that time, select My Account on the Toolbar to reopen the window.

From the window, you can sign in using an existing Affinity ID or create a new one.

To register a new Affinity ID:

  1. Select Register Now and then Create my free account.
  2. Across the next few pages, provide your email address, first and last names and country.
  3. You'll be asked to create a secure password to protect your Affinity ID. After entering it, click Show to confirm what you typed, then select Continue. After revealing what you typed, you can copy it to the Clipboard and paste it into your password manager.
  4. Choose whether to stay informed about news and offers, and confirm you've read the terms and conditions and privacy policy.
  5. Select Create Affinity ID.
  6. In the email that confirms your account's creation, click Verify email address. If the email does not arrive, return to the registration window. After a period of inactivity, it will present options to resend the verification email or change your account's email address, e.g. in case you made a typo.
  7. Return to the registration window, which will confirm your registration is complete. Select Go to My Account.

Managing your Affinity ID

With your app signed into your account, the window changes to show all the content registered to your Affinity ID.

My Account window

Mac os x 10.5 combo update. From here, you can manage your Affinity ID, choose which content is installed, and customise your app's installation behaviour. The default behaviour is never to automatically download content, which avoids unwanted consumption of any metered data allowance.

To open this window at a later time, select My Account on the Toolbar.

To manage your Affinity ID's details:

  1. Select Manage Account.
  2. In the web page that opens, enter the email address and password for your Affinity ID.
  3. Select Sign in.

Use the website to review your order history, download a backup of your products (see this guide’s How to install content via the website section), and update your name, email address, country, email marketing preferences and account password.

To automatically install Affinity Store purchases:

You might do this if your Internet connection is unmetered or your device is only ever online via Wi-Fi.

  1. On the My Account window, do one of the following:
    • On desktop, check Always install available content
    • On iPad, select Download available content on Wi-Fi or Always download available content from the left-hand menu below the My purchases list.
  2. From the adjacent menu, choose the maximum size for each piece of auto-installed content.

To manually install Affinity Store purchases via the My Account window:

  1. (Optional) Select View licence next to each required item to review its usage terms.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Click each required item’s adjacent cloud icon to download the item.
    • Select Preferences ( on desktop, on iPad) at the top right of My purchases and then select Download all.

A green tick indicates the adjacent item is installed and available for use in your app.

A red cross indicates the adjacent item failed to download. Click/tap it to retry.

If an Affinity Store purchase that is compatible with the Affinity app in use is not listed, select Preferences ( on desktop, on iPad) and choose Re-sync library.

By default, only Affinity Store purchases compatible with the Affinity app in use are listed. To see all your content purchases, select Preferences ( on desktop, on iPad) and choose List incompatible packs (on desktop) or Show incompatible packs (on iPad).

How to install content from the web

Content downloaded from a third-party provider or from the Affinity Store via your web browser needs to be manually installed through the corresponding part of your Affinity software.

Downloading content from the Affinity Store via your web browser enables you to keep a backup that can be installed at any time, e.g. when an Internet connection is unavailable.

Extracting your resources from a ZIP archive

Downloads from the web may be provided in the compressed ZIP format and need to be extracted (decompressed) before they can be installed. You can do this by double-clicking the file on macOS, or by right-clicking the file and choosing Extract All on Windows.

On iPad, browse to the ZIP file in the Files app and tap it to extract its contents. If there is just one item inside the ZIP file, it is extracted to the same folder. If there are multiple files inside, they are extracted to a subfolder named after the ZIP file.
