I've been using photoshop elements on my mac for years. I just bought a new macbook pro and adobe isnt recognizing that i already own photoshop elements. Adobe is making me sign in for a 30 day trial with option to purchase but i already boughh it years ago. Any advice? Did they change it to a yearly subscription only??

    What Jeff said.

    You can download the version you own (and only that version) from Adobe:

    Download Photoshop Elements | 2018, 15, and 14

    Download Photoshop Elements 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, and 7

    Install then enter your serial number.

    You only have a license to the version of photoshop elements you had bought for your older mac.

    If you install a different/newer version, then yes you would need to purchase it.

    What version of photoshop elements is on your older mac?
