Which versions of Lightroom and photoshop are compatible with OS X El Capitan Versione 10.11.6 MacBook Pro Processore 2,2 GHz Intel Core i7 Memoria 16 GB DDR3 a 1600 MHz Grafica Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB

The newest Photoshop version that runs on El Capitain 10.11.6 is Photoshop CC 2018 (ps version 19.1.9) and Lightroom is CC 2015.14 or Lightroom 6.14 perpetual license version.

However, since those are not available from Adobe any longer, there may be a way to install a newer macOS on your MacBook Pro using OLCP (Open Core Legacy Patcher) that allows use of one of the available subscription versions of Photoshop and Lightroom.

If you could tell us the year of your MacBook Pro.

As an example, I have a 2025 MacBook Pro using OLCP (Open Core Legacy Patcher)

that is running macOS Sonoma 14.8.5 with Photoshop 2026 (ps ver 27.5), Camera Raw 18.3 and Lightroom Classic 15.3.

Photoshop Elements 15 was officially compatible with El Capitan. 

But that hasn’t been sold in many years. And finding a legit copy now might be difficult.

El Capitan (10.15) is obsolete software from 11 years ago, and it should not be used for security reasons.

At a minimum, you need one of these modern systems to run Adobe desktop apps. 

• Win11 or Win10
• Mac Tahoe (26), Sequoia (15.7) or Sonoma (14.6).

Hope that helps.
