adobe creative suite 5.5 design premium

Hello,
I buy the box ADOBE CREATIVE SUITE 5.5 PREMIUM DESIGN in 2012 and can not use it today on imac.
(Purchase as a student)
I think it comes from the Mac OS MOJAVE version that uses 32-bit and adobe now uses 64-bit.
I am trying to update my ADOBE software around for using Photoshop but can not.
I think I'm not the only one in this situation.
Can someone help me? tell me how to proceed?
Thank you for any information
CRDL

Hi

I think you're getting a little mixed up, Adobe have not changed anything, it was Apple that made the changes with the latest release Catalina

Photoshop CS5.5 should work on Mojave

Thank you for this information,
I followed the link and the advice you gave me (for Mojave), unfortunately, that does not solve the problem,
Thank you anyway.

Photoshop CS5.5 was made for Lion (10.7) in 2011. Since then we've seen Mountain Lion, Mavericks, Yosemite, Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra and Mojave. You can see how far behind you are.

 

CS5.5 will not work on Catalina. You need CC2020, just released and developed/tested for Catalina.

Hello,
yes of course my version is old but an update should be possible? At the time, I bought the software and it was said nowhere that there was an expiry date.
thank you
