Suggestion: let me install the Apps on external hard drive

Question

Hi! I use Mac with very low SSD volume (60 GB for all the system!). I use external hard drives as much as possible and still often stuck into No free space problem.

I tried to install Adobe apps on external hard drive also, but it doesn't let me and support says - Apps can only be installed on internal hard drive! This is sad...

Can you please upvote this thread for this feature to be implemented? This will boost productivity a lot on the machines with low free space (if any) on hard drives.

Many thanks in advance!

With regards,

Andrey

Honestly, a 60 GB HD would be totally useless for the kind of work I do. CC Apps need a supporting operating system. And that's on the primary hard drive, not on externals. Start looking for a new computer with a much bigger primary hard drive, good video card and plenty of RAM.
