Install Photoshop CS6 13.0 onto Mac OS Monterey 12.3.1

Report · Jun 07, 2022

When I try to install Photoshop CS6 13.0 onto my laptop (MacOS Monterey 12.3.1), I get the following error:

"Install" needs to be updated.

The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information.

I realize I have an old version of photoshop as my register product, but is there a fix for this? Replacing the dead laptop was expensive enough, I'm not keen to have to replace this too.

So what is the "fix?"

You can't install that old version on Monterery.

You either need to run a much older (pre-Mojave) OS or subscribe to a modern version of Photoshop.

Adobe doesn't honor any sort of upgrading or credit? There isn't an updated version I can download? I have to do this subscription garbage?

Adobe didn't force anyone to update to an OS that can't support 32-bit applications. This very old version still runs, on hardware and operating systems that always supported it. So you have a choice: stick with a really old OS/hardware and version of Photoshop, or update your OS, hardware and as you must, the software that runs on it; Adobe's or anyone elses.

But Adobe Photoshop CS6 is a 64 bit application?

Report · Sep 13, 2022

Yes, but the installer is 32-bit only. Read the part about legacy/perpetual versions.

Adobe is pathetic in this area.

And it community support experts remind me of the paid Chinese promoters of products on Amazon. Adobe has been a horrific company in considering consumer needs.

Microsoft Office legacy products work orders of mangnitude better than Adobe products. There is not effort. Quite the contrary. Adobe wants to promote its cloud monthly products and will do anything in their power to kill the desktop applications that they sold.

Really sad.

The clone tool in MS Office never worked for me.

I have a big problem to teach to 100 students and 98 pupils with adobe products (in applied arts diplomas) : because 1/we must check the licences on the adobe cloud for each course and
2/we haven't rj45 connections nor wifi in the classrooms ! Some mupils and students can't have datas for sharing the connection and they are no rj45 nor wifi possibilities in the classrooms (Region Auvergne Rhone-Alpes is not ready to install it!

I would like help please ! I must teach with some adobe products in high school and college (bachelor in Applied arts) where they have paid for 200 licences !!!!!
So I will use open source solutions waiting help from you dear Adobe specialists...

All our Public schools don't have a good web connection service (one fiber access for more than 500 machines) and we really need a more friendly politic ...
