I have a 2010 mac and adobe CS5...just had to re-boot the operating system and now have El Capitan running. After re-installing the adobe CS5, now I am getting "Error code: 6" and I'm unable to open any adobe programs. Any thoughts on where the issue may be?

Code 6 & Code 7 http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/errors-exit-code-6-exit.html

Also... CS5 may or may NOT work with that operating system

First, see if the Mac 10.11.1 bug fix update will help you

-some discussion of 10.11.1 https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1986008

-ALSO need to update the nVidia drivers (links included in message)

-there is also "some" mention of a further 10.11.2 bug fix being tested by Apple

There are known problems with Mac 10.11 El Capitan... that may be one of them

See reply #5 in https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1965850 for several solution links

-the first link in that reply is a possible solution to install problems

-there is also a link about video display problems in Premiere Pro

-and several other programs... PLUS Microsoft Office also has problems

Plus official Adobe help pages listing Mac 10.11 problems
