Ps3

[pirkkat6704532]

MacOS Catalina 10.15.1 does not support Adobe Photoshop3 (Ps3.) 

I installed my olde (2007) Ps3 from the original CD on an old MackBook using Mac OS 10.6.8. The installation went fine, but I can not activate the program. The program seems to run fine, but it is allowing me 30 days to activate.  What do I do after the 30 days? - Help please.

Adobe took down the activation servers for cs3 so you'll need the non activation version from here:

To get any cs3 updates like photoshop 10.0.1 or camera raw 4.6.

Hello Jeff,

I installed it on an older MacBook running  MacOS 10.6.8. I launches OK. The Ps3 is version 10.1.

It will not open on my newer Mac which runs Catalina and I knew to expect that.

Since macOS 10.15 cannot run 32-bit applications, if CS3 can be installed, but it cannot start itself.
The operation guarantee of CS3 is only 10.4 and 10.5.
