Old version photoshop

I have two Mac Studios on which I use the Creative Suite—obviously, only on one machine at a time. On rare occasions, for academic reasons, I need to work on an old 2012 MacBook Pro that is no longer compatible with the current versions of Adobe. My use on the MacBook would be limited to Photoshop only. I was wondering if it’s possible to get just the standalone installer for this app in the old version compatible with the 2012 MacBook.

    @Filippo Biagianti Not sure this helps,

    there’s some info here  https://helpx.adobe.com/au/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html

    All the same, this is not going to get around your licence covering use on l only 2 machines - the only solution I can think of is to have an additional subscription, for just photoshop, rather than the suite, on the mac you mention.

     

    I hope this helps

    @Filippo Biagianti as far as I’m aware Adobe no longer provides download links for unsupported versions of Photoshop
