However, if you have an older Mac system and would like to use Adobe Photoshop CS6 on it, then even though it is a cumbersome approach, you should be able to do so by installing Windows XP on it using Boot Camp.
With this latest release Adobe appears to be promoting the adoption and support of the latest OS X 10.7 and Windows 7 operating systems. Additionally, the only reason it is still supporting Windows XP is that a large Photoshop user base still exists on the platform. However, even though Adobe is supporting older 32-bit code on Windows XP, Adobe is splitting the Windows system requirements by dropping official support for Windows Vista.Īdobe's reasoning for these changes is that quite simply it is following Apple's lead in no longer supporting 32-bit code either in hardware or software. The drop in support for 32-bit systems accompanies a requirement for systems to be running OS X 10.6.8 or later.
