Offline Activation problems with Photoshop CS6 MacOS Mountain Lion

[Dracunculus]

I'm trying to install PS CS6 on an old MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion (10.8.5) that does not have internet access.

I've followed the instructions to go to Adobe.com/go/getactivated. I entered the request code and product serial number on a computer with internet access, however the page simply resets and asks for the information again.

The Adobe chatbot says that no assistance is available for unsupported products - like PS CS6.

Any advice?

Thanks

Dracunculus, I checked and https://adobe.ly/48TNpbE continues to lead to the offline activation web form. You may want to try using a tablet or an up-to-date computer to complete the offline activation process. Please see https://adobe.ly/4q4bOBz and https://adobe.ly/4gZAlU6 for updated information on how to sign into and activate Creative Suite 6 in 2025. ^JW

If you have a modern device, you might want to replace PS CS6 with something significantly better & newer.

MODERN OPTIONS:
==============
Photoshop Elements (3 year license, no subscription needed).

Creative Cloud Annual Photography plan. Includes the following:

I have the current version of PS running on a different computer. I want to get the older version running on the old computer as well.

Thanks. Unfortunately, that doesn't work.
