Need access to Adobe Illustrator v28 (2024) for macOS Monterey (12.7.6)

Hello,

I am currently using macOS Monterey 12.7.6. Since my operating system does not support the latest version of Adobe Illustrator (v29+), I need to install Illustrator v28 (2024), which is compatible with my system.

However, Illustrator v28 is no longer visible under the "Other Versions" tab in my Creative Cloud Desktop app. Could you please assist me or provide access to download the setup for version 28.x?

Thank you in advance for your help.

    Not to move you off your current OS, but Adobe doesn’t generally offer software installs more than one generation back. Right now, that means Illustrator 2026 and 2025 … at least for one more week or so. Adobe’s techie-Woodstock experience, Adobe MAX is one week away, and new versions of Adobe’s apps are generally introduced there. 

     

    But Apple faithfully offers multiple versions of its OS way back from the current version, which would be MacOS 27. Rather than raising the bridge, can you lower the water and possibly update your running MacOS version on your system?
