On the second computer, which has the same operating system, I says the operating system is not supported by photoshop anymore.
Is there anything I can do to navigate this problem without upgrading my operating system?
When you say you were able to install on OS X 10.6.8 on your first computer, how long ago did you do that? The reason I ask is that Photoshop CC supports 10.6.8, but Photoshop CC 2014 (released this month) does not. That might be why the current version won't install. What you could do instead on your second machine is use the Previous Versions feature of the Creative Cloud app to install one of the older versions of Photoshop that does support 10.6.8, either Photoshop CS6 or Photoshop CC.
Also, regarding CC activation: You don't have to manually deactivate installations of software you installed with the Creative Cloud desktop application. As you install the software on more machines, it will let you use the two most recent installations you signed into, while automatically signing you out of all older installations.
