Hello.

I have a Macbook pro 13 inch with the latest software (14.6.1).

I have used photoshop on this exact laptop before, and even used it in an older one too. However, whenever I try downloading it it just says ''system requirements are not met'' and now I cannot use photoshop at all! I don't have it downloaded on this laptop as I had it formatted recently, and I have to re download it but it does not let me.

Can you post a screenshot from the apple menu about this Mac? What year is it, how much RAM does it have, the graphics card, etc.

Did you format the drive as case-sensitive? That won't work.

Here are the minimum requirements: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/system-requirements.html

It looks like your Mac meets them - maybe as Lumigraphics says - is your hard drive formatted as case sensitive?

The recommended RAM is 16 GB or more. Most of us have "more". You should be able to launch Photoshop with only 8 GB, but you won't be able to do all of the functions.

RAM 8 GB  16 GB or more

Do not reply to PMs, which are likely to be scammers.

@Hnd_Brl8563 are you installing this on the main HD and not an external?
