Adobe Photoshop CS6 licencing fail at login window stage

[cdonnov]

Hello!

Trying to enter licence code to Photoshop CS6 on macOS 10.13

To do that I run photoshop, then the login window opens. I enter my username and password, but something goes wrong and the login request page reopens again. And so on in a circle.

What am I doing wrong?

Does adobe still officially support this app?

1 - CS6 is from 2012 and is no longer supported

2 - Based on past messages (I am on Windows, so this is not from direct experience) When you are installing or updating on a Mac, that is your Mac asking you to prove that you have permission by asking for your COMPUTER password, not your Adobe password

Oh, sorry, I must be put it wrong - I meant this window, not the system window.

The window in what you enter your Adobe login information to register a program.

This window closes by second after I press "Login" button and reopens again with blank fields.

Old Creative Suite installers are not compatible with Sierra, High Sierra or Mojave without terminal workarounds.

CS5 and CS6 are on life support. But they can still be activated providing you have the following:
1. your original media (disks or downloads) you received at purchase and a way to read them,
2. a legitimate serial number for that version, language and platform (Win/Mac) and if it was an upgrade, a qualifying serial number from an older product,
3. an older operating system that can support legacy 32-bit apps.

Legacy Creative Suite is discontinued & unsupported. Use at your own risk.
