Question

when I try to download either of these, it won't work. I will go to the download button and click it, and it will send me to a screen saying it will send me a link to download the installer in my mail. When I click on it, it will take me to my Gmail to compose that very letter with the link in it. I will click or copy and paste that link, but it will take me right back to the screen saying that it will send me a link to download installer.  It's cyclical. Mind you, in that letter, it says to click on that exact link. I am using a Chromebook.

You can install Adobe Cloud mobile apps on your Chromebook via the Google Play Store

However, the desktop versions (Photoshop, Illustrator etc) require a supported full desktop operating system such as Windows 10 or a compatible macOS.

You cannot install Illustrator or Photoshop in the Chrome OS.

Only with Mac-OS or Windows-OS is installing possible.

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .
