CC 2018 [How to download CC 2018 on a Mac which cannot run CC 2019?]

Question

Hi, my CC stopped work. I uninstall and reinstall it, as I have done many times in the past. But a new installation fell down after cca 50 %. I have iMac from 2011 with OS X 10.11.6 (El Capitan) and it cannot update to Sierra. So I cannot install CC 2019 and need CC 2018. Where can I download it, please? I'm looking for it and I can not find it, it must be very good hidden 😕😕

Thanks, Martin

Have you tried?

According to Apple, you should be able to upgrade a 2011 iMac to at least High Sierra if you've got at least 2GB RAM and 14.3GB space on your hard drive.

After you install the CC desktop manager, you use the PREVIOUS process
