Can't install PS element 14 in my MacBook Pro

Correct answer John Waller

The presence of the Control Center icon in your Mac menu bar indicates you're running Big Sur or Monterey.

 

Elements 14 cannot be installed on Big Sur or Monterey due to changes made by Apple in the operating system. Basically, Apple dropped support for any 32 bit software. Elements 14 uses 32 bit installers and other components.

 

Your best option is to upgrade to the current version Photoshop Elements 2022.

Elements 14 is kind of ancient; what version of macOS do you have?
