For a Mac that old you would probably have to use Illustrator CS6, the last version released before Creative Cloud was established. It's not available to download via the CC Desktop app; the farthest back those versions go is Verison 27 (2022).

 

There is also an additional problem: the version of OSX that's running on your vintage Mac. Updates were ended prior to the release of OSX El Capitan. If your old Mac is running a newer version of OSX then Illustrator CS6 may not be able to run on it.

My old 2008 cheesegrater could run version CC2017. A newer Mac could run something newer. It depends on the system.
