I cannot install In Design

Hi,

 

I cannot install InDesign in my Lenovo laptop (Snapdragon). Creative Cloud says it is not compatible. Then I try to install it on my former laptop, which I used to work on InDesign in the past, and I cannot install it neither because it has 4Go RAM only (but I did have InDesign on this laptop).

 

Can anyone help me to find:

- A compatible version for a Lenovo with Snapdragon

- AND/OR a compatible version for 4Go RAM (CS6 or other)

 

I am paying for it so I need to use it.

 

Thank you in advance!

Dzień dobry, Marius,

According to this:

only Adobe InDesign (beta) will run in *emulation mode* on a Copilot+ PC using a Snapdragon processor.

InDesign likely will not install and run in 4gb or RAM on a regular Windows PC. I think the minimum stated is 8gb, and I find that you really need 16gb or more to run it effectively. Czas na nowy, ulepszony laptop?
