Hi,

 

I have been using a Windows laptop.

Recently, I bought a Mac.

 

Would you tell me how to install Adobe products on Mac?

Creative Cloud apps: download and install

Most other apps: throw them away and subscribe to Creative Cloud.

New Macs run Catalina, which can only run very new apps.

Thnak you very much for your link.

 

I am just curious; why the Adobe products are not on the App Store.

>> why the Adobe products are not on the App Store.

 

Good question. Several reasons.

 

Developers are reluctant to put their Apps on the App Store due to Apple-imposed limitations, including:

  • Technical restrictions such as Sandboxing
  • Apple takes a cut of every sale
  • Cannot offer trials or demo versions.
  • Cannot offer paid upgrades
  • Developers cannot communicate directly with customers
