Apps that run using Rosetta 2
If you use a Mac with Apple silicon, you can install certain Adobe apps with Rosetta 2 technology. These apps may take longer to open initially as Rosetta 2 translates them for your computer.
| Adobe Captivate 11.8.2 |
| Adobe Dimension |

When deploying apps for an enterprise or using stand-alone installers, ensure that Rosetta 2 is already installed on user machines.

Adobe will continue to support Apple devices with Intel processors. We have no plans to discontinue support for these devices.
