    Your photoshop elements 2.0 is for windows and windows programs don't work on macs and vice versa.

    And even if you had a mac version of pse 2 it still would not work on Sierra since pse 2 requires a mac running on a PowerPC processor and your mac uses an Intel processor.

    As stated above your best course of action is to get a more up to date photoshop elements, which would be photoshop elements 2019, the current version adobe sells.

    Macs aren't like Windows. Windows machines may well run 17 year old software well (not always). Macs do not do this. You need to get up to date software. This greatly increases the cost of switching platforms, and Apple don't mention it.
