PS 6 is antique, im not even sure it will work on os 9, and most definetly not on anything newer then 10

with the switch to osx the Operating system the went to unix, so what you need to get is a new version of PS, I suggest just going for cs 2. Im not ure but since you own that super early version of ps you should jsut be able to get the CS upgrade for cheaper.

well I don't know how the update works!
do you need to have the early version installed (problem)
or just the cd-key? (no problem here)

cause a complete CS2 costs about 950 € ! (damn I get a whole CPU for that much money)
I'd buy the update!... (280 € "only")

can someone explain to me ow the update works?
I didn't find it on the web
I red that it works back to v5.5 but I don't know if one has to install the previous version or not...
so tell me how the thing works (pls:)) cause I don't want to waste 280€ since I'm not that rich...
thx in advance

I've got an old copy of 5.5 that runs fine in Classic on 10.4.7, so I don't know why 6 wouldn't install. I think all you need to install an update is a registered serial #.
Your best bet is to contact Adobe directly.
