Here is a list of links to older versions of Acorn, just in case you need one for some reason.However, you should always be running the latest version of Acorn since it has important bug fixes that older versions do not contain.

But if you need an Acorn 4, 3, or 1 registration, email [email protected] and let us know your registration name and number and we will make you a registration that works with it.
Why does Acorn have a button labeled 'Purchase' in the window?
Acorn runs in two modes: 'paid', and 'trial'. In trial and paid modes all the functions of Acorn are operational. If you see the 'Trial' button in the upper right hand corner of the canvas window, that means Acorn is in trial mode. If you like Acorn, you can click where it says 'trial' in order to make the purchase. After the 14 day trial period has ended, a watermark will appear over your images. No worries- you can purchase Acorn (by clicking on purchase) to make the watermark go away!
Are there differences between the Mac App Store version of Acorn and the direct version?
Yes. The direct version of Acorn (downloaded from our website) has a few more tricks up its sleeves.
When saving a file in the direct version of Acorn, you can type a file extension (such as .png or .tiff), and Acorn will notice that and automatically pick the right file type from the popup.
The direct version isn't confined to a sandbox. So if you want to do hassle free scripting or write plugins which can write to anywhere on your computer, you're going to want the direct version.
You get faster updates with the direct version. You can also have access to beta versions when available. Since we can update the direct version whenever we'd like (the App Store version might take a week or more waiting for review), you get fixes and new features faster.
What's the difference between an Acorn update and an upgrade?
Updates are minor releases that usually occur fairly frequently. When you purchase Acorn 6, all updates that occur within version 6 are included with your purchase (such as 6.1, 6.2, etc). Major releases of Acorn occur less frequently (generally every 18-24 months).Major releases involve a lot of new features and enhancements, and they require purchase from both prior users of Acorn (those who are upgrading) and new users. There is no obligation to upgrade if you wish to continue using an older version of Acorn.
Why is Acorn the same price for upgrades and for new users?
In the past, our store would have two ways to purchase Acorn: a brand new purchase, or a discounted price which would generally be around 60% of the original purchase price. Then the App Store came along and only provided a single purchase price. To enable people to get an 'upgrade' price on the App Store, we would run intro sales or other temporary sales. It became confusing and slightly discriminating, so we decided in August of 2014 to sell Acorn to everyone at the lower upgrade price.
I bought Acorn on the Mac App Store. Why am I still running the trial version?
You will need to delete the trial version of Acorn from your computer. Perform a spotlight search for 'acorn kind:app' (without the quotes). Delete all copies of Acorn that are not located in your Applications folder. Install or re-install Acorn from the Mac App Store. It should be listed under your 'Purchases' tab. If you clicked the 'Install' button and Acorn isn't showing up in your applications folder once it has completed installing, try re-booting.
I bought Acorn on the Mac App Store. Where's my registration number?
The Mac App Store does not provide a registration number for Acorn, since the store manages all the applications you purchase through it for you. You will notice in Acorn preferences that there is no registration tab if you bought Acorn on the App Store.
I bought Acorn on the Mac App Store. Why isn’t family sharing working?
At this time the App Store does not allow family sharing for apps that offer in-app purchases. You can read more about Apple’s policy here.
How do I update or upgrade to the latest version of Acorn?
If you bought Acorn from the Flying Meat Store: Open Acorn. If a dialog box doesn't pop up telling you about the latest version, you can select Acorn ▸ Check for Updates. You will be guided to download the latest version of Acorn if you don't already have it. For paid upgrades, you will be placed in 'trial' mode. If you wish to upgrade, click where it says 'trial'. You will be directed to the Flying Meat Store to provide payment.
If you decide you want to stick with the previous version and do not want to upgrade, delete the latest version of Acorn from your computer. You can download the previous version via the links shown above under 'where can I find old version of Acorn'.
If you bought Acorn from the Mac App Store: Updates are managed through the store under 'Updates'. At this time the Mac App Store does not allow us to direct customers to a new major release to upgrade. The best way to stay on top of major releases is to subscribe to the Flying Meat newsletter: http://www.flyingmeat.com/newsletter/.
Can I use the same registration on multiple computers?
Yes, you may use your Acorn registration on multiple computers as long as it is only you using the license. And if you have a single Mac with multiple people using it, you do not need to purchase an additional license. However, if you have multiple computers and multiple people wanting to use Acorn, you will need to buy an additional license for each computer.
Does Acorn support Photoshop files?
Acorn does its best to open PSD images, and if possible, preserve layers. Photoshop styles, and editable text are not supported however. To save a layered PSD file, choose the File ▸ Export menu, and select PSD from the Format menu.
What types of RAW files can Acorn open?
Acorn has the ability to open RAW files that are supported by Mac OS X. A list of supported RAW formats can be found here.
Yes, Flying Meat offers a $10 discount on Acorn for students through our store only. We require that you send the request to [email protected] using your student email address ending with .edu. We will then send the discount code to your student email address. The student discount is not available during promotions and sales.

Do you offer bulk discounts if I want to purchase a lot of copies of Acorn?
Yes! Contact [email protected] and let us know how many copies you are interested in purchasing and we’ll respond with the available options.
What is the recommended resolution for printing?
This is a complicated topic. In general a PPI (pixels per inch) of around 200 - 300 gives good printing results. Check out our tutorial: 'All about DPI, PPI, and Printing'.

What’s New:
Version 6.5: New
The Clone tool now has an opacity option.
Crop improvements: You can now set the DPI of an image while cropping, and alignment guides now appear when rotating your image in a crop.
The Perspective Transform command has a new option in the palette to show / hide the grid. It also gets a new palette that shows up when invoked.
Feathering selections: The Select ▸ Feather… menu item has been removed and you can now control the feather on a selection right in the selection palette.
End caps for bezier paths: You can now change between round, square, and butt end cap styles for bezier paths. These new options are right under the join style in the path options section of the shape palette. Also, it’s now easier to see the selected state of the line join and cap styles.
You can now use the anchor select tool to drag and select multiple anchors.
New Image Panel improvements: We’ve increased the accuracy when changing from one unit to another (ie- inches to centimeters) as well as added an option to view the resolution field as pixels per inch or pixels per centimeter.
The PDF import window now shows the pixel dimensions of what your new image will be (and updates accordingly when you change the DPI)
We’ve added a new advanced preference which tells Acorn to load 3rd party Image Units.
Changes
New Polish Localization courtesy of Leszek Klich.
Better support for editing images from Bear.
Tightened up the pixel edges a shape will snap to on creation (specifically bezier path or rect shapes).
Adjust a text box to have a non-zero line height will no longer clip the top of the first line (for new text boxes only; existing text boxes will keep the old behavior).
The blinking insertion point for text boxes and paths is a little bit thicker now.
Kerning is now on by default for new text boxes (previously it was disabled). You can turn kerning off by editing and selecting the text, then using the Edit ▸ Font ▸ Kern ▸ Use None menu item. Additionally, the Command-Option-[ and Command-Option-] shortcuts can be used to tighten and loosen the kerning on selected text (while editing it).
Improvements to how the aspect ratio is kept when placing a crop preset on the canvas and then swapping the orientation with the ‘x’ key.
No longer showing a modal dialog box when a trying to change a locked layer. An in-canvas notification is now shown instead.
Web Export now lets you explicitly set the quality of your image when exporting, in addition to the already existing slider. The quality setting lets Acorn know how much compression to use when exporting your image.
The DPI for certain presets have been increased from 72 to 300 dpi.
Text padding changes. Prior to Acorn 6.5, text boxes had a 5 pixel inset which would make glyphs show up 5 pixels to the right of where the logical location of the text box was. This meant that when you left aligned a text box below a filled box, the starting glyph wasn’t exactly where you’d expect it to be. In Acorn 6.5, new text boxes are created with a padding of 0 pixels so alignment will always happen as you’d expect. Existing text boxes keep the 5 pixel inset for compatibility’s sake.
The default new document size has been changed to be whatever half the size of your display’s pixel dimensions are.
Acorn has a new hidden pref for auto-saving of all file types, not just Acorn:
If you’re using this on lossy file types like JPEG, your image will degrade over time because each time you open and save your image, details are lost.
Fixes
Fixed a problem where Smart Layer Export wouldn’t work when an extension was not given in the file name.
Clearing the document edited state when using the Revert menu item.
Fixed a problem where adding a control point to the curves filter wouldn’t show up right away.
Fixed a problem when using the pencil tool on 10.13 and later with the blend mode set to copy.
Fixed some little issues with Automator actions.

Better selections in text boxes when line and paragraph spacing are non-default values.
Fixed an issue where empty windows would sometimes come up when you launched Acorn.
Fixed a problem where setting the paragraph spacing to 0 while editing a text box would sometimes fail.
The File ▸ New from Selection command now copies over the correct DPI from the copied image.
Fixed an issue where the DPI of your image could change when using the Image ▸ Resize Image… menu item, and you didn’t really want it to.
Fixed a problem where the Reselect command wouldn’t work.
Fixed some issues when setting specific kerning on characters.
Fixed a problem when exporting an image as PDF when a shape layer had a layer filter turned on.
Fixed a possible memory leak when exporting via Web Export.
Fixed a minor bug where the cursor wouldn’t update when you cleared a selection by pressing the ESC key.
