I work with an iMac 27" late 2009. That works fine, but after Hig Sierra I no longer receive updates. I can no longer download and install the latest updates of my Adobe products.
I have to wait for the successor to my 27" iMac, the M1. Apple hasn't announced it yet. Now I'm having problems with my computer that require a reinstall of the operating system from scatch. Can I install the 'old' versions of adobe again???

Some friendly advice, get a Windows PC.  You'll have fewer problems 😉

 

Only a few Adobe products are able to run natively on M1 chip so far.  It's not exactly a bed of roses.

Adobe only offers the current and ONE older version

 

Direct Download Links https://prodesigntools.com/tag/ddl MAY help
-you MUST do what it says in Note: Very Important Instructions
-https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-2015-direct-download-links.html#download-instructions
-the prodesign links go directly to Adobe's file server, so this process
--will only work until Adobe completely removes the old version(s) from the server
.
IF/When you do have a download, be sure to copy it to AT LEAST one external device
-since Adobe does sometimes remove old versions from the server
-a usb flash drive or hard drive, or write to a DVD
