Hi, I want to install and run Photoshop Elements. I have a 2012 imac running Catalina macOS v10.15.7. Can you please advise on which version of Photoshop elements I need and where I can source it from?

I've tried to install the Elements 2023 version but its not compatable (requires macOS 11).

I believe 2020 is compatible, but I'm not sure and I don't know where to source it from. Please help.

macOS

Just to note, Adobe release a new version and completely stop selling it. There are no online ways to buy an old version, no approved clearance sellers, nothing. You take a big risk trying to buy old versions. Yes, once a system is out of Apple's support it is abandoned and sourcing software becomes a big issue.

... But there could be brick and mortar stores with old stock.

Out of curiosity, do bricks and mortar stores selling software still exist elsewhere in the world?
They're long gone in Australia.

If you have any local electronics computer stores check with them.

Off the internet i would only buy from places you've heard of before.
