How can I find out if my Mac Pro 2.39 Quad-Core early 2009 can run 64 bit applications?

There is no Mac Pro that can NOT run 64-bit applications.

The ability to run 64-bit apps is completely unrelated to running a 64-bit kernel, which I think is what is confusing you.

You are right. I looked at my system profile under the software heading, and next to the 64-bit Kernel and Extensions: it says "Yes". I guess I just wanted to know if I could run the latest Adobe 64 bit software.

Thanks for your reply . . .
