MacBook Pro M2 and Creative Cloud compatibility?

[Sandra240162955qxe]

I'm done struggling to run CC on my 2017 iMac and am considering purchasing a MacBook Pro M2. Will InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat Pro run smoothly on this one? Looking for advice before I drop a bunch on $$$$ on something that won't speed up my productivity.

yes, the cc desktop app was finally updated to remtthe last (afaik) problems with some of the cc apps.

what does "remtthe last (afaik) problems" mean?

[kglad]

remthe is the well-known acronym for remove the.••

It should work fine on your current MAC as well. What issues are you facing currently?

Ever since the Creative Cloud update it took a nose dive downward on speed.
I asked questions to this community at this time and the only advice was to
purchase a SSD external hard drive (because the iMac is not SSD) and run CC
from that instead. I did that and it helped a bit but I am fed-up with the
slowness and cannot run more than one program at a time. I tried Adobe and
Apple support and it went nowhere! What suggestions do you have?

[kglad]

debugging that is going to be difficult via a forum.  if you were happy with previous versions, why not uninstall the problematic versions and install the previous versions?

[Sandra240162955qxe]

Because I would not be compatible with the business I free-lance for.

older versions of adobe production files generally open without problem in newer versions.  what specific situation are you in that would fail to follow that generality?
