  CS5.5 Upgrade – 32 bit machine

  32 bit.

  The machine is in need of an AE update. But I only have the option of upgrading to CS5.5 from the adobe site, which requires a 64 bit system. I’m having trouble finding an update to CS4.

  I’m aware that when you purchase production premium of a PC, that you get a copy of CS4 to resolve this problem.

  Is this also the case when it comes to upgrading only AE, to CS5.5 on a mac?

  Or are there any other options to upgrade?

  Thank you in advance..

  Kind regards

  Gary

  osx has a 64-bit kernel, so 64-bit should not be a problem. but you need to check the version of the os to make sure that is supported but cs5.5. i believe that cs5.5 works with leopard and up, but do double check that.

  a definitive option is to download the trial of cs5.5 and see how it works on your machine.

  i do think you’ll want to get more ram.
