Oh and one MacAdmin has knocked up a script that can semi-automate the package manipulation process with a copy on the MacAdmins Slack here. The process requires you to open up your current package, delete and insert a hot fix, clear out any quarantine bits from the package and re-upload to your deployment system of choice.Ĭertainly better than nothing, but still not ideal. As per my comments above ( The Current Situation – General Usage) this will only work for applications that are supported on Rosetta 2. Both of these are correct and current for each architecture, and both come from your same identical package!Īdobe have documented the process to convert your current / new Adobe packages to be “compatible” with Apple Silicon deployments here (remember, this is still via Rosetta 2). Graham Pugh covered this in some detail within his blog post here, but the super-short TL DR is: Currently Intel Macs will have CCDA version 5.3.2.471, where-as Apple Silicon devices will get version 5.3.5.518. The bad news is the packages will install one of two different versions of CCDA depending on the architecture you’re deploying to. The good news is these new packages will work on both Intel and Apple Silicon devices automatically, so you’ll likely not need to keep duplicates of the packages. It is possible to actually edit your current installers to work with Apple Silicon (they’ll still require and run through the Apple Rosetta 2 translation environment). This includes those created from the Adobe Admin Console, with additional applications or those with the Creative Cloud Desktop App (CCDA) only. Users can download these installers from the usual end-user download page at /apps The Current Situation – Mass DeploymentĪs it currently stands, the installation packages you’ve created for Adobe deployments on macOS will not work on Apple Silicon devices. It is not specified which versions of these applications are compatible but I’d assume it’ll be the latest version (2021 for the vast majority, with 2020 for those yet to have a 2021 version). Adobe XD (with known issues detailed here).There is also a beta with native Apple Silicon compatibility available here) Photoshop (with known issues detailed here.Lightroom Classic (with known issues detailed here).Adobe Bridge (with known issues detailed here).Acrobat Pro (with known issues detailed here).For reference these are currently listed as: Details of compatible applications can be found here. The exception to this is Lightroom 4.1 which is Adobe’s first native Apple Silicon application. Most Adobe Suite applications will run on Apple Silicon devices but through the use of Rosetta 2. This post is intended to share the work required to achieve this and hopefully help some folks out!īefore I begin, full-disclosure: I’ve not had the chance to test any of this on an Apple Silicon device myself, and the information shared is from Adobe’s official sources and work from members of the MacAdmin community ( #adobe).
