Thank you for valuable information!

 

I'm new around these parts just registered yesterday, so learning as I go. Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but here goes.

 

Rosetta 2 on M2 Apple Silicion compatible, or will it run, Adobe CS4 Design suite? Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign, etc.

 

Thanks in advance

    You will need a current CC subscription on an M2 computer. You cannot use older versions for a number of technical reasons.

    Not CS6 either. There are many ways Apple work to block old software. All software older than 2019 is blocked on all modern Macs. Rosetta 2 is for software post 2019 but pre M1 (if you're lucky). New Mac, new apps.

    CS4 was not 64 bit which is required since Catalina.  I think you would need at least CS6 which is no longer sold. So you would have to consider purchasing a subscription to the latest release.
