Question

How to install older version of photoshop CC 2019 on Older Mac OSX (High Sierra):

Please help me unstuck from the 41 error when installing!

 

I will keep High Sierra for now since other programs are depending on that older Osx for now so it is for me out of the question to Updrade the Osx in order to have a newer version of Photoshop.

 

I have downloaded this installer "AdobePhotoshop20-mul.dmg" which is suppose to be the CC2019 installer, which I found on this page which was recommended on this forum.

I get the "41 error" during trying to install;

 

 

I am installing using my main user which is an admin profile.

 

I HAVE TRIED THIS:

 

I have tried to repair Creative Cloud via the "repair" option which you get when you try to run the "uninstall Creative Cloud" fule. I have tried to install previous versions of CC (2018) which worked btw, but I really would like the 2019 CC of Photoshop, so then I did uninstall CC 2018 again.

 

I have tried a lot, so please guys, how to solve this?

    Did you follow the "Very Importand Instructions" for downloading at ProDesign Tools?

      Thank you @jane-e , I did not follow the guidelines you are recommending above, I was not aware of them. Anyways the ".dmg" install file: "AdobePhotoshop20-mul.dmg" did download at "1 755 867 476 byte (1,76 GB) and the DMG verified which OSX did without any errors, so it is hard to believe that anything could be wrong with the installer file..... And it does start to install, but ends with the 41 Error not being able to complete the installation. So I am puzzeled how such things as browsers settings could have anything to do with it.....

      indeed it didn't work. And further research and attempts at getting help by the adobe online chat led me to the conclusion that the oldest OS version that can be used with the adobe apps now is 10.15. Before that we, dear valued costumers, are just dead meat.  Thank you so much Adobe for this endless push towards more and more consumerism. Who cares for the planet... Drives me nuts. 

       

       

       


      @Gardanne not true - there are still options available. You can still even install PS22.2 from the CC Desktop App.

      As for older than 2021 (2020 is no longer available at all) -

      You can try installing CC2018 first using the authorized installers from this link.

      Then try upgrading via the 2019 links.
