I have mac os 10.11.6 or El Capitan, I just got creative cloud looking foward to learning how to use illustrator and photoshop. However It only runs on mojave. I asked a customer support guy and he said I could find a link for photoshop 2018 and it'll work. 

 

Has this happened to anyone?

Does anyone have the link?

Can someone help?

 

From,

Z

Hi @getzsman ,
Only the latest two versions of the Creative Cloud apps are supported and available for download. You can try and download the older versions of the Creative Cloud apps from the following website. If the links mentioned on the website don't work, then it means that Adobe has discontinued providing the download and genuine installers are not available anymore. Be circumspect if someone contacts you claiming to provide an installer in such a case.

Which Mac model exactly and how old? Can it run Mojave based on the dates given by Apple here?:

If your Mac supports Mojave you can do a free upgrade from El Capitan

All good. First time I've heard anyone prefer El Capitan to later operating systems though. I found El Capitan to be very similar to Mojave.

Yes you will be able to run it, see the system requirements for PS and Illustrator versions at the following links

    Hey Manan, it works thanks! Premiere Pro doesn't however, do you know any
    downloads that would work for that?

    I suppose the 2017 version would work for Premier Pro. Try the following link

      Thanks Manan, so if the download link works I might be able to run the
      applications?
      Thanks for the heads up!
