Adobe CS6 problems after downloading

Question

I have tried multiple times downloading CS6 on my MacBook Pro. I am having issues after downloading. I click install and a screen pops up saying Insaller failed to initialize. This could be due to a missing file. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. Once I click on the link to get Adobe Support Advisor it says the link has been discontinued.

I have tried: Downloading it from different web browsers and using the cleaner tool. Neither worked.

Any suggestions? Thanks
