Is this site reliable?

I'm using macOS 10.13.6.

I want install CC 2018

According to the Korean customer center, there is no previous version file including CC 2019.

Is it impossible to install more CC 2018???

Yes, it is reliable, the download links provided by this site point to the Adobe servers. You can verify by right-clicking the download link and copy it to see where the link is referring to.

Also, do make sure you follow the steps mentioned on the site to make a successful download. The download links might not work if Adobe has stopped providing the installers, so if you do get the installer make a backup of it.

Nice to meet you, Joshi.

The customer service center in Korea is responding that the address is not an official link and should not be used.

Who is the correct one?

[Manan Joshi]

Yes, that is correct that it is not a website owned by Adobe but it points to the Adobe servers for downloads. You can verify the download as I mentioned above.

ProDesignTools is safe.  The person who runs the website is an Adobe Community Professional and has permission from Adobe to post links to the installers. However, Adobe may remove the installers at anytime without notice.

NOTE 1: Pre-CS4 software can no longer be activated because the activation servers were shut down years ago. 

NOTE 2: To use CS4, CS5 or CS6, you will need a compatible serial number and an older operating system that can support it.  And Creative Suite has not been legally sold since 2017.

NOTE 3: The old installers are not compatible with Education or Volume licenses. Only individual licenses will work.

NOTE 4: Be sure to follow the Very Important Instructions on that site or you'll receive an "Access Denied" error.

NOTE 5: Old installers won't work on macOS Sierra or higher without terminal workarounds.

NOTE 6: Creative Suite cannot be installed on Catalina or Big Sur as old 32-bit apps are not supported. 

Good luck!

@이98A6,

For security reasons, Adobe expects all Creative Cloud customers to have the latest software, no more than 2 versions back.  On Mac, that would be Mojave or higher. 

If your computer doesn't meet the min-system requirements, you cannot use Creative Cloud desktop app which is essential for managing your subscription, apps & services.

Hello Nancy.

I did not know why the Korean customer center said it was illegal, so I wrote to the community.

I am relieved to hear the official news.

thank you for the reply.
