Photoshop Elements 6

[Torbjorn0D4D]

Dear sir,

I have just bought a second hand MacBook Pro 2015 and after having my Photoshop Elements 6 installed from the purchased CD on my previous MacBook Pro 2007. Because of the upgrades of the systems my new MacBook won't accept this older version. How can I upgrade and install a newer version without having to buy a new Photoshop? 

Yours sincerely 

Bjorn

Hi , I've moved your post from the Photoshop forum to the Photoshop Elements forum where you are more likely to get help with your issue.

Re bonsoir, je n'ai pas précisé qu'il s'agit d'une version Windows, cela change peut-être le problème ?

Bjorn,

PSEv.6 is no longer supported by Adobe. You will have to purchase the latest version of the software.

Unfortunately, in your case there is no way to avoid upgrading to a newer photoshop elements version at a cost.

You can often find photoshop elements 2021 at your local retail store for cheaper than on the adobe website.

Apple made major changes to macOS Catalina and macOS Big Sur so they only run 64 bit software and not any older 32 bit software like your photoshop elements 6.

@defaulty54gioxe9qyb, the evolution of Windows and Mac is very different. However, Adobe will not currently support any version older than PSE 2021 so don't expect any official support.

I have seen an occassional report that Elements 6 can be successfully installed on a Windows 10 machine (presumably using some compatibility mode).  But that version is now 14 years old and is likely to have problems.  The oldest version I personally have on my Windows machine is PSE 10.  If you are able to do so, I strongly suggest that you upgrade to the latest version (if your computer meets the current specifications).

Merci pour votre réponse mais je n'ai aucun problème avec ce programme qui s'est installé correctement sur WIN10 (sans mode compatibilité). Le fichier language n'est pas sur le cd, je ne sais pas, par ailleurs, s'il en existe un. Je vais devoir faire des progrès en anglais

Bonne soirée
