Question about downloading CS6 software to new mac laptop

I'm going to purchase an Apple laptop. I currently own (non-cloud) Adobe CS6. I'd like to download my CS6 from the Adobe website. Is it as easy as accessing my CS6 via Adobe website and downloading? Do I need previous versions of CS in order for CS6 to work?

 

I'm in a time crunch and don't really have time to leave my computer at Apple store for a few days for them to do it.

HI Tati,

 

Yes, you follow the link: Download CS6 products to download your CS6 products and you do not need your previous CS products for the download.

 

Let me know if you face any queries while doing that.

 

Thanks,

One more question...Is CS6 compatible with the newest Operating Systems? I am currently running 10.6.8.

Hi Tati,

 

Please follow the link: System requirements | Adobe Creative Suite 6 to check the system requirement for CS6 products.

 

Thanks,

Also, reading between the lines, you had CS6 for Windows. That cannot run on a Mac of any age.

you won't be able to use it, at all, because the latest macs are not compatible with cs6.

 

that said, you can download cs6 (for mac and for win) from prodesigntools.com and you can (still, but for a limited time) activate it.  if your cs6 was an upgrade version you'll need not only your cs6 serial number but also the serial number of the qualifying upgradable version.

 

but not having a compatible computer (that fails to support 32 bit programs and adobe's installer is 32 bit) is a non-starter.
