Find the specs of your Mac and post them here

How to find your Mac's basic specs in OS X - CNET

Apple icon > About This Mac > System Report

Copy and paste the info from that screen here.

Photoshop CC requires OS X 10.10 or later. Your image indicates that you are running OS X 10.9.5.

So you'll have to upgrade your operating system (or upgrade your computer) to run CC.

P.S. For future posts, best to take a screenshot and upload it rather than a photo of the screen

Also having the same problem right here! The message 'This computer does not meet the minimum system requirements for Photoshop CC. Please refer to the system requirements in the Help documentation for a full list of hardware and software requirements for Photoshop CC.' keeps coming up but I am pretty sure the computer meets the requirements.

Fayec99419927, I am sorry but the current release of Photoshop CC requires macOS 10.11 or later.  Please see the link offered by Nancy in post #1 of this discussion.

If you are unable to upgrade the operating system to macOS 10.11, or later, then see Learn how to install your Creative Cloud apps​ for details on how to install previous versions of Photoshop that are compatible with Mac OS 10.10.5.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for your prompt reply!

Is it possible to download the free trial of an older version?

Thanks!

Not through the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application, Fayec99419927.  The ability to download older versions is only available to accounts with active Creative Cloud memberships.
