Instead they would have intentionally prevented all of those CS6 applications from being 64-bit. If it was an evil plot to control unannounced events that would happen almost a decade in the future, preventing a 64-bit version of InDesign would not have been enough. If it was truly about greed, it would not have been about InDesign alone. It may not have been exactly the same time as Photoshop or Illustrator, but InDesign was only slightly later, and they are all very different code bases. But like one of the others said, It is ALL ABOUT GREED!!!!īut they did update InDesign to 64-bit a long time before any of these OS requirements were made, it looks like InDesign went 64-bit in 2014. I don't understand why they did not update InDesign. Adobe did update Photoshop CS6 and Illustrator CS6 to to 64 bit. None of that will stop Apple and Adobe saturation marketing their latest products of course. Unfortunately, there's no supported fix for running 32 bit apps on Catalina or Big Sur. They just try and fix things when they hit a snag. Few people do any research before upgrading. Seems that most people are not really interested nor listening until the day it affects them directly when their favourite software will not run. Hard to see what more Apple could have done. Fun fact: 32 bit support was supposed to be dropped in Mojave but Apple could see that developers were not ready so support was extended to Mojave with more intrusive notices to consumers included. Consumers were then given two years of notices and warnings in High Sierra and Mojave. Developers were given 10 years notice by Apple. 32 bit support was not suddenly stopped out of the blue. Maybe it would be helpful if Apple would let its potential updaters know that crucial apps might be rendered useless prior to urging us to update to the next version.that might help.Īpple actually did just that.
