    Try it, but I highly doubt it will work. The worst possible outcome would be a factory reset.

    No. The M6 requires the more modern versions of the Mac OS (Sequoia or above). These versions of the OS require InDesign version 20.0 or above.

    Have you had such an experience?

    Not personally. My answer is based on all of the released system requirements for the M6. This information indicates its need for the most recent Mac operating systems for which InDesign version 15.1.3 is not supported.

    The first question to ask is how do you get the installer for that version. Adobe supports and provides download for only the latest two versions. v15 means 2020 should be fine on this processor as this version could run on Apple Silicon if I am not wrong.

    The program will be migrated using the Migration Assistant.

    Ok, that is interesting. The only thing that you can do is try and see.
