Hi guys, so basically I'm relatively new to this, I have a old mac computer that i'm trying to use to edit my photos but cannot download creative cloud apps directly from the adobe websitebecause my mac is so old is there anyway for me to be able to get them? or is my computer just too old? i have dowlaoaded an older verson of lightroom from another website but it won't read my photos because they are raw files which is annoying, if anyone can help with any or all of my problems would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Have you tried using the free DNG converter instead?

Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter, convert all the Raw files to DNG format then edit the converted DNG files (not the original Raw files) in your older version of Lightroom. Although converting to DNG is an extra step there's no loss in quality and it's nil cost.
