Running CS6 on machines that can never upgrade past Al Capitan works fine for me since I still need Macs that can read my 17 years of archived jobs on optical CD-R and DVD-R media. I thought this might allow my Adobe Apps to auto update when they usually cannot auto update in later versions of Mac OS like Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite. After that, I would then upgrade install El Capitan on top the Snow Leopard installation with all of my apps already updated. Then I would run all the software updaters for all of these apps until every app is updated as far as they will go. Since El Capitan upgrade installed on my Mac Book Pro and gave me such clean performance, as if I had clean installed, I was thinking of Installing Snow Leopard on my new hard drive, on my 2009 Mac Pro, re-install CS6, and InDesign CS4 and CS3, along with Quark Xpress 8 and Office 2008. My 2009 Mac Pro is getting a replacement internal hard drive soon so, I will install El Capitan and install CS6. I’m so late in the time table here but, all my Adobe apps worked fine but I had to re-activate my CS 6 apps as if I had just reinstalled them for the first time. It was only in October, 2017 that I upgrade installed El Capitan on top of my Yosemiti installation on my 2009 Macbook Pro, with 64-bit memory architecture and my CS6 apps already installed. I have been running my permanent licensed version of Adobe CS6 under Yosemiti for a few years. I know that since this discussion thread has started, some very refined and patched builds of Mac OS X El Capitan have been released. Or, if I just went to replace the one bad program and got the new Illustrator by subscription, would it work with the other components of the CS4 software? I'm wondering if the subscription software would even work. I think Adobe owes something to its loyal customers, and the kind of bug Illustrator has, not being able to read the new file system and crashing on "Save," should be fixed, especially when it must be an inherent bug since it does not occur in Photoshop and InDesign. But for home users and small businesses, and nonprofits, that $600 a year cost is overwhelming. If there were new regular software, I would probably bite the bullet and get it.įor people who work for large companies and can get the subscription service paid for by someone else, it is probably all right. I've spent a fortune on the Adobe Creative Suite, first CS2, then CS4, and then I had to buy it again when I switched to Apple. Mine was installed on about as clean a machine as you can get. The only thing on it when CS4 was installed was Microsoft Office.
