No photoshop elements versions at present runs Native on Apple Silicon (M1/M2), however, photoshop elements 2022 is an Intel application that uses Rosetta 2 on M1/M2 Macs and should work fairly well on M1M2 processors.

Best thing to do is download the 30 day trial version of 2022 and see if your satisfied with how it runs before buying.

Perhaps photoshop 2023 due this fall will be Apple Silicon Native.

update

As of the release of photoshop elements 2023 it is a Native Silicon application.

Thanks. I might use Rosetta, but fear that it might slow down the MAC just when my editing of pictures makes processor speed most important. Might wait till Photoshop Elements 2023 is released to see if it is Compatible with M-2 apple chipsets.

I just now installed Photoshop Elements 2023. It too requires Rosetta.
