Question

Help reinstalling old version (2017-2020 )

Hello community,

 

I recently had to format an old iMac 2017 and reinstall system 10.14 Mojave. I was running inDesign 2018 on it just fine. I came to find out that Adobe doesn't hold any versions prior to 2023 anymore ( which does not work on Mojave ). And the support could not give me a download of their old version, referring me to this community.

 

If anyone happens to still have the dmg file of the installer from the 2018 range or know a place where they still hold them, that would be really appreciated.

 

Thank you everyone.

There's no official way to obtain those installers. But your 2017 iMac should be able to run much higher versions than Mojave.

Your iMac supports Ventura so you should be able to install the latest available versions of InDesign.
