I am trying to install indesign on my macbook air and it says I don't have the minimum requirements on my laptop. How do I figure out how to fix this?

    So all this means you need to get a more powerful computer: System requirements for Adobe InDesign CC for Mac and Windows OS

    It's a fairly simple answer - your MacBook Air isn't good enough to run the applications - in that it hasn't got enough RAM - Processor Power - or Graphics capabilities.

    Macs are considerably underpowered for the price paid for them and in my opinion a complete waste of money for a shiny box.

    When you ask a question you need to provide some basic information

    -Forum quick start https://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-5601

    Mac or Windows, and EXACTLY which version of the operating system?

    Recent Mac AND Windows operating systems have been known to cause "odd" problems

    Are you using a computer Administrator account with full read/write permission?

    Exactly which version of the program do you have that is causing problems?

    Minimum System requirements for Cloud Programs... scroll down and check each program
