Hello - I have an iMac [wireless] desktop computer - my student version Adobe Creative Suite 5 (Master Collection (and CS4) was integrated onto my desktop from my laptop - installed latest Apple update, MacOS Sierrea 10.12 - now my Adobe Creative Suite no longer works, the apps will not open - error message reads: 

To open "Adobe Photoshop CS5" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime -  (same message reads for any of the Creative Suite apps) - I have contacted Apple who troubleshooted the problem and they referred me to to you - please help, I am a Graphic Designer and need my applications to work - thanks

    Legacy Java does not ship with Sierra. You will have to install it.

    You can download it here. Download Java for OS X 2015-001

    I just bought a new MacBook Pro 15” and migrated my MacBook Pro 13” software over to my new computer. My Adobe CS5 is saying I need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I did and I also verified it. I am still getting the pop up menu, could you please let me know what I need to do to fix this issue? By the way I have Sierra on my other mac's.

    Thanks for you help.
