Audition CS6 crashed with El Capitan and now Sierra

Since I installed CS6 from its original discs onto my iMac, I’ve had no problems until El Capitan and Sierra. They have been giving me trouble, specifically with Audition. Every time that I try to open Audition CS6 in any of the newer OS, it crashes, quits unexpectedly before opening, and gives a problem report with very lengthy details. Can anyone please help? I’ve tried everything from activating the Audition CS6 exec in Terminal to downloading a legacy version of Java, and nothing works. The program still crashes on me and seems to only work with the Yosemite OS.

Ryclark is entirely correct in giving you the instructions for how to submit a Crash Report--hopefully the Adobe staffers and developers (who DO read and respond to such reports) can help.  However, a few more things should be said.

First off, CS6 was first sold about 4 years ago and more than a year ago Adobe announced that no further development will be done.  This means that, if there's a change, it's at the Apple end.

Second, audio problems after upgrades in Apple OS versions are VERY common.  These are usually (but not always) fixed in bug fix releases from Apple.  Indeed, one Apple upgrade was so bad that the majority of Audio hardware and software manufacturers issued warnings not to install until Apple fixed things.

Anyway, hopefully the devs can help you--while I've heard of some problems with CS6 on the latest OS releases, I also know of many people whose systems are working fine.
