Question

Photoshop Elements 2018 License

L.S.

Earlier this week I downloaded Photoshop Elements 2018 from the Adobe web site,
as my OS (MacOS 10.11) does not support version 2019.

After using the software for some time in trial mode, I want to buy it.

When I click the BUY button, I am directed to a page where I can buy a license for what seems to be Photoshop Elements 2019.

Can I unlock Photoshop Elements 2018 with a 2019 license key?

Thank you in advance.

    Hello.

     

    You cannot use Photoshop Elements2018 using your Photoshop Elements2019 license or serial number.

    As Fast_Javelin says, there is no other way but to find the store inventory.

    However, since it may be said that nearly a year has passed since the release of 2019, I think that it involves considerable difficulty.

     

    Since MacOS10.11 is no longer supported by Apple, I think that it is one way to consider replacing the PC.

      Nice to read that I said so myself 🙂
      Buying a new Mac merely to be able to run Photoshop Elements 2019 is a bit too much an investment.
      I shall go on using my version 10.
      Except for the fact that it saves large pictures without preview icon, it still does a good job.

      Fast_Javelin, my apologies for any confusion.  Photoshop and Premiere Elements 2019 were recently released.  We only offer the current version of the software at https://www.adobe.com/products/elements-family.html?promoid=V2XYKZ3B&mv=other.

       

      If you need Photoshop Elements 2018 specifically, then I would recommend checking with a local Adobe Reseller to see if they have any additional stock on hand.  You can find the Adobe Resellers near you at https://www.adobe.com/partners/partnerfinders.html.

       

      However you purchase Photoshop Elements 2018, please make sure that you can complete the process listed in https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/find-serial-number.html to register the software.  I would also recommend verifying the return policy, in case you do face any problems with the registration process.
