Hello,

So I have had PSD since 2017. I had an issue with my computer, uninstalled everything. Now it works fine but found out the new psd version is not compatiable with my 32 bit, Windows 10 pc. I do not want to buy an entirely new computer and would like to either buy the CD of the former older psd version, or download one. I tried the prodesign link and it would not dowload. I spoke to an Adobe rep and he said the program I probably downloaded from Adobe in 2017 was CS6. I would so appreciate your help. Thank you in advance♥

Yes that's a good question as to whether the op has a subscription or was using a perpetual license software like cs6.

Jeff, as I remember it, Photoshop became unusable on 32 bit systems with CS5, and CS4 was not a whole lot of fun either. Windows had a tweak that would let you use 3.5Gb RAM, and Photoshop would need most of that just to run, which left nothing for print buffer and third party plugins like Topaz. I don't know how 32bit Mac systems managed memory.

Photoshop started to get hungry for RAM from CS4 onwards so I am struggling to imagine CS6 running on a 32bit system. Not that I have ever tried it, so who knows?

Did you sign in first to your Adobe account? Do you have a serial number for the software?

The download links are at https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html

If you scroll down you should see a table with direct download links for each of the applications in CS6 as well as the Master Collection.

If there is still a problem, try contacting Prodesign at https://prodesigntools.com/contact-us.html

Hello,

Yes, I am signed into Adobe.

Thank you for the screenshot. I was clicking on the wrong area. I just downloaded both files. Which one do I run first? Is it easy to download? I usually have Adobe take command over my screen. Thank you so much!!

Hi Dave! Thanks for responding on the 4th. I am off from work this evening and hope to get this right! My apologies for misunderstanding.

Don't sign in via Photoshop.

Close Photoshop.

Sign out of, then uninstall the CC Desktop application (whatever version(s) you have installed).

Restart your PC

Install the 32 bit version of the CC Desktop application (as linked to by Jeff).

Open the newly installed 32 bit CC Desktop application and in that application sign in to your account.

Only then try and open Photoshop.

So I am to uninstall the Creative Cloud, not Photoshop. Then reinstall Creative Cloud. The sign in to Adobe using the Creative Cloud. Correct?

Thanks everyone for your patience with me♥

Yes - but when reinstalling Creative Cloud make sure you use the 32 bit version from the link that Jeff Arola posted.

The link for Photoshop CC 2018 (32-bit) windows seems to still work for me.

It was on the right hand side of the screen. All it does is refresh the page.
