Hello, I need some help finding a version of Premiere Pro and After Effects that is compatible with a MacBook Pro Mid 2012.

My Mac specs are:

  • MacBook Pro 13-inch, Mid 2012
  • Intel Core i5 2.5 GHz, dual-core
  • 16 GB DDR3 RAM
  • Intel HD Graphics 4000, 1536 MB
  • SSD
  • macOS Ventura 13.7.8

Based on the hardware, I understand that older versions such as Premiere Pro 2020/2021 and After Effects 2020/2021 would probably be more suitable for this machine.

I contacted Adobe Support, but they told me that the oldest versions currently available to them are After Effects 23.0 and Premiere Pro 24.0.2. I am concerned that these versions may be too demanding or incompatible with my processor/GPU.

Is there any official way to download older versions of Premiere Pro and After Effects with an active Creative Cloud subscription?

If not, which versions would you recommend specifically for this MacBook Pro running macOS Ventura?

I mainly want to use it for basic 1080p video editing and relatively simple After Effects compositions.

Thank you for any guidance.

    Hi RLA,

    I'm sorry, but this Mac does not meet the system requirements for the current versions of Premiere Pro or After Effects.


    I'm also not sure why Support mentioned those older versions, as they are no longer generally available for installation through Creative Cloud.

    Unfortunately, there isn't a supported version I can recommend for this hardware and macOS combination. You would need to upgrade to a Mac and macOS version that meet the current system requirements for Premiere Pro and After Effects.


    Sorry I don't have better news for you.


    Thanks,
    Kevin
