Bridge CS5.1 and Mac 64 bit

Hello,

I am still running Bridge CS5.1 and my Mac keeps telling me that it is not going to be compatible with the new 64 bit operating system in the future.

Is there a patch, work around or something to fix this?

It still works fine for me and I really have no need to update.

Thanks.

    Both Apple and Microsoft are heading toward 64-bit only. That means that older, 32-bit software won't run. So this will be the last version of MacOS that will work with CS5. The fix is to upgrade to CC.

    Thanks for your reply Akash,

    I've been using photoshop CS5 and bridge CS5 for years no problems, just the future Mac OS won't support it unless its 64 bit.

    Below is my current config.

    cheers,

    David

    Mojave (10.14) will run 32 bit apps, with a warning. Bridge CS5 was never tested or optimized for Mac OS 10.13 and we cannot determine what exactly might be causing the issue. Please check out this discussion Is Adobe CS5 compatible with OSX High Sierra?
