and I only use it once in a while anyway so paying for 12 months of use and only using it for 1 or 2 of those months seems like a dumb investment.īut now it's 2021. Overall, Adobe CS6 Creative Suite does everything I need it to do, I already own it, and I do not want to pay monthly or yearly for some functionality that I already own. So I do not want to pay for something month-to-month that I already own and I do not need the latest-and-greatest versions of. I only need to use those programs once in a while, like when I'm updating my website or branding in the offseason, or designing wedding albums.
Photoshop cs5 mac non subscription edition update#
I bought the CS6 software back in 2012 and decided to not update that workstation computer because I want that software to be there for me to use FOREVER. I do not want to subscribe to the Adobe software EVER, I hate the idea of subscribing and paying month-to-month, and imo the CS6 versions of Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign do everything that I need them to do.

People will say 'oh just subscribe, it's *only* $600/year' for creative cloud. so my workstation at home (Mac Mini) and on the Road (Mac Book Pro) are both stuck living in the past, in 2012 with old software. WHY? Simply because I own the last non-subscription version of Adobe Creative Suite CS6 and it will become broken software the minute I upgrade the OS. I have been using a Mac Mini from 2012 and not updating the OS since OSX 10.10 Yosemite. I'm at a crossroads with my workstation, and could use a little bit of advice.
