Hi, I have registered Photoshop Extended and get only a download of a 32 bit installer. My new Mac only supports 64 bit applications. Is there a 64 bit version of Photoshop Extended or CS 6 available?

no.  photoshop is 64 bit, but the installer is 32 bit.  that's never going to change.

 

ie, you need a compatible os.

 

or start a cc photography plan for $10/mo

 

or buy photoshop elements.

CS6 is a decade old.  It's discontinued, unsupported and for all intents & purposes obsolete on modern Macs.  Did you keep an old computer to support your legacy software?  If not, you need modern software.

 

Depending on what you used CS6 for...

Photoshop Elements has been mentioned.
