Supported Image Editing Apps for Mac

    To install the Focus Magic plugin for Mac:-

    1. Save the “FocusMagic500c.plugin.zip” file, if you haven’t yet done so
    2. Double-click the “FocusMagic500c.plugin.zip” file to extract the “FocusMagic64.plugin” file if it wasn’t automatically extracted
    3. Move the “FocusMagic64.plugin” file to the appropriate plugins folder – deleting the original file if there is one (see paths below)

    Important Notes:-

    • For step 2 if you end up with a file/folder named “FocusMagic64.plugin 2” (or 3, 4, etc.), then delete those files/folders AND delete the “FocusMagic64.plugin” file, and then go back to Step 2.
    • Do not double-click the .plugin file to launch it.  If you are using Photoshop, you’ll find “Focus Magic” on the “Filters” menu.

    Apple M1 (Apple Silicon) Users:-

    • We’re currently working on a new update for M1 (Apple Silicon) users, but we don’t have a release date at this stage.
