Photoshop no longer opening on MacBook Pro

Hi All,

I've ran into an issue with Photoshop in that when I tried opening it today I got an error message telling me that there is a problem and that Photoshop2024 is not compatible with my computer. 

I currently work on an older Macbook pro running Big Sur 11.7.10. I realise that this is an older computer, but up until the last update everything was running fine. 

Is there a way to roll back to an older version of Photoshop which is compatible with my system? I don't need all the latest features of Photoshop, I just do basic photo editing and illustrations.

@Roland5C1C In the Creative Cloud desktop app you can click the ellipses (...) next to Photoshop and go to "other versions" the 2023 installers are still available.

Thank you very much Kevin. That has solved my problem. Reinstalled an older version of photoshop and it works like a charm again.

I wasn't even aware that option was hidden under the ellipses, so I learned that as well. I'm sure that option will come in handy when I get similar error messages on my other aplications.
