Stuff like this is why I'm still hanging on to my old Photoshop CS3. Some of the newer features are cool, but my needs are pretty basic and haven't really changed in the time CS3 has existed.

Sadly with OS upgrades that's often not possible. I suspect CS3 runs on Windows but with Apple's aggressive removing support for old features you can no longer run CS6 on MacOS AFAIK.

Wonder if that is because everything from CS6 and earlier is 32-bit and Apple nuked 32-bit support in MacOS.

I have CS6 on my windows machine and it is 64b. I would be surprised if CS6 wasn't available as a 64b option on macos.
