How do I purchase/get a version of Illustrator CC 2014?

Hi folks,

I have a bit of a hardware issue.  I bought a large Graphtec cutting pro FC 7000-100 whose company has stopped updating it's software.  With my Mac OS X 10.10 the only option to being able to use this machine is to use a plug-in that is built ONLY for Illustrator CC 2014.  How does one go about purchasing CC 2014 without automatically having to purchase the newest version.... which is not compatible with the plugin?

    You can install earlier versions (down to CS6) using the Creative Cloud app.

    In the Preferences > Creative Cloud you can check to Show older versions.

    This is no longer the case?  I desperately need Adobe Illustrator 2015 and none of the older versions for CC apps are available

    Hi Chris,

    As mentioned above, you can install all versions from CS6 onwards with your CC license.

    Here's an article with step by step process to install a previous version of AI using Creative Cloud app: How to Find and Install Previous Version of Adobe Apps in CC 2015 | Adobe Customer Care Team

    A subscription to Creative Cloud gives you access to all versions of Illustrator from CS6 onward. Go to Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud . Upon installation of the Creative Cloud Desktop app go to the pull-down menu to the right of the app's name in the apps section of the desktop app (click on the "V") and choose the Previous versions option to find CC 2014.
