CS6 for my Mac does not work on MacOS Catalina Help.

[LKW_Designs]

I have a MacBook Pro, 2.6 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB. I just updated to macOS Catalina and non of my CS6 Collection works. I tried to find a way to reinstal my last operating system and there is no way for me to do that. How can I get my programs to work again. All responses is appreciated and thank you for your knowledge and time. Linda

According to other Mac users, Catalina gives you a warning that 32bit programs are not going to work

CS6 is not supported on Catalina.

Apple blocked all old apps. Only Adobe’s apps from 2019 and layer work. Time to subscribe to Creative Cloud - which includes future upgrades to keep up with Apple’s tricks.

Revert to your previous operating system.  See link below for details.

You will never, ever be able to upgrade your computer OS again.  Support for 32-bit apps ended at Mojave.  Start budgeting now for new software.   For security reasons, you can't stay on Mojave forever.
