Windows 7 64-bit is deprecated in this release. MacOS 10.14 is deprecated in the current release. Adobe Photoshop CS6 (10.14) and 2020 are deprecated in the current release. A) launch the InDesign application from the applications folder (this will not work on a shortcut or the dock icon) while holding down SHIFT+CTRL+OPT+CMDFor what it’s worth: I’ve been using Mac computers on my life, I posted a question on Adobe- titled 32 to 64. Some here have claimed to be able to use CS6 in 10.11 without incident, others haven't. CS6 and 10.11 have not been claimed by Adobe to be compatible at this time.I just sat back and watched. It took probably 45 minutes to an hour. I am not a computer geek, by any means and they took over my computer cleaned out the old Adobe software and then installed the software on my computer.The last few OS from Apple have supported both. First was wit 64 bit compatible chips, then they started up slowly update software to transition to 64 bit. They started the 64 bit transition over 10 years ago. The list below contains details about the core applications in Adobe’s CC 2015 suite.The decision to discontinue compatibility with Adobe CS6 is also reinforced by macOS no longer being officially compatible since OS X 10.11 (released in September 2015), and with CS6 no longer being able to even run on OS X 10.15 (released in October 2019).They also assured me if I bought a new computer, they would do the same thing again at no additional cost.They told me the licenses are everlasting! I’m 76 years old and that my age the learning curve is not easy.One thing I found out that it’s only for CS6 and does not let do things with any later versions of InDesign, but the Acrobat is current.I am trying to relearn InDesign so I joined in design secrets because they told me the there were old magazine articles here, within InDesign secrets from years ago.In the good old days, you would buy a desk pop in the computer and off you go!I don’t know that it’s complete fair to blame Apple for this “upgrade”. With that in mind we’ve gathered some recent updates from Adobe, to help you decide whether you should wait before upgrading to OS X 10.11 El Capitan. Adobe After Effects Cs6 Os X 10.11 Drivers From TheseHowever with each new release of OS X or Windows, there are inevitably a few bumps in the road.
Think about it – I can pay once for Adobe Suite and use it the next 6 to 10 years. I think MANY of the software companies have either been lazy, or in some cases (Adobe imho) saw this road map long ago and seized on an opportunity to force customers to switch over to the subscription based model. It’s not like the software companies haven’t known this transition was coming. Os X 10.11 Cs6 Adobe Full Subscription ToA couple of months ago I bought an Imac 27″ desktop with 24gb RAM, fast processor and 1T hard drive. I’ve got a full subscription to Adobe and Adobe Stock so I’m set up pretty well. It’s got a fast processor a 1T hard drive with multiple server storage access and 2 27″ monitors. I’d sacrifice 10 to 15% of my customer base if I know I’m going to be able to almost triple my revenue stream.Don’t get me wrong – Adobe makes GREAT products! I love their stuff – but think they also take advantage of their customers because they have such a strong foot-hold in the market place.If we’re really being honest – all of these companies know where technology is heading and their road maps are planned accordingly.Does Adobe have clean hands in this? Doubtful.At work I use a PC for graphic design and illustration. So now – in a 10 year period, I no longer by the software once – I’m buying it three times.We are the golden eggs – because they know we’ve been backed into a corner as users. My experience with Catalina is nonexistent so I can’t comment on its issues other than I’ve tried to upgrade twice and both times it failed to complete the process. They seem to work well but having used Adobe since the very beginning it takes a little getting used to the new thinking. In reaction to this I have purchased the entire Affinity Suite and am going through the tutorials. When that happens that $50+ dollars a month off the top will become a much more important issue. I have a subscription to the Adobe suite and love the software but the cost is a little bit much and although I have a regular job now that makes that a minimal consideration I will most likely be retiring in the next year. This system should work well for many years for my own design, illustration and fine art projects. So I may be using the current OS for awhile unless I want to bump up my data plan (already over $150 a month with phone and computer} So you can see the costs add up and with TV and software its over $300. But that access fluctuates with use I believe and that is what is causing the error. Also my monthly allotment is only 10gb and the upgrade is more than 8gb so I have to let it run during free time in the a.m. Internet explorer 11 for mac powerpcI feel our pain – may we find a way to make said pain belong to ‘them’.Interestingly enough, there was no way for me to forward this to said ‘senior advisor’ so that HE could put his 2 cents in to his superiors re our sentiment. WE want to age safely and contentedly – yet these people to whom we have been loyal, have NO qualms about having the money flow only one way (NOT capitalism). It.What was it that he did not want to hear?Me saying that, ‘after all this if I were to sieve out the final end product my solution is ‘spend more money at Apple (and/or Adobe)’.WE (aging designers) KEPT THESE PEOPLE IN BUSINESS FOR DECADES WHEN NO ONE ELSE WOULD LOOK AT THEM. Ditto to everything anyone said.I just got off the phone with a “Senior Advisor for ‘Apple Creative Media’ After many hours to get to this particular conversation pinnacle. Not sure what the point of this is but maybe just to state the frustration of escalating costs to just run a computer and be linked in to the net.I weep and am relieved at the same time. My terrific designer is still using CS4 with his MBP 2008 and produces superb work. The Illustrator does all that I need it to do. The Photoshop works with my Camera and I have no need to upgrade that hardware. Not supporting the past software such as Java6 because of the prior two points in the current OSMacs since the Lisa (and other stuff before then)Hey, I’m late to this discussion but I loathe Adobe for pushing us all to subscriptions. Not fixing the bugs that you have in your past OS rather rely that everyone will move to the next itteration3. Forcing everyone to upgrade to newer versions of OSX as since the death of Steve, the QC has been non existant2. I have no need to spend more money to gain nothing.The problem is not really Adobe, but Apple for1. I use InDesign for some ads, and single-page documents, but when it comes to long-form publishing you truly couldn’t pay me enough to switch to ID.I agree with the frustration of trying to stay alive on an Apple machine… which I have not changed platforms since 1985 upgraded to in 1985… as that is one way to go backward in the “desktop publishing business” I have been in since being a beta tester for PhotoShop used with Pagemaker. For books and magazines, which is what I publish, there is no equal. You’d be surprised! When they find a stable platform they keep it, rather than dealing with endless bugs and patches that cause them to experience downtime.But as MM said above, it was people like us who kept Apple in particular alive back in the 90s — we believed in them when virtually NO ONE else did.I, too, have spent the thousands of dollars on software over the years and I simply refuse, at this point, to go to Adobe CC.Parting shot: I may be a dinosaur in some respects but I still use QuarkXPress (2019 version). (BTW: Adobe can rent their software to students for half the price, so…) There are a lot of small print shops out there that will never, ever upgrade to 2020-level computers and/or software, and even though I don’t deal with them much anymore, I totally get it.Even some larger commercial printers don’t upgrade for years at a time. Pepsi Cola dropped HyperCard (a really beautiful OOP programmable database? (which easily could have been the “Home Application” of an easier Internet browser, which couldn’t import Adobe Illustrator88 Graphics, let alone PowerPoint “cards”, until InDesign / Adobe Acrobat came along.
