I have installed the CS6 version of InDesign on OS X 10.13.6 without problem, but every time I launch it I have a crash.

Compatibility with the latest OS X version?

HOWEVER... every time Apple issues an update, there is the risk that at old program that was working will stop working

Hi V.annunziata,

NOTE: Officially the last version of Mac OS compatible with Adobe CS6 was 10.7, see: Adobe Creative Suite 6 system requirements.

CS6 is a pretty old software and Adobe has not tested it on any of the latest operating systems post- Mac OS 10.7.  Creative Suite applications are not supported on macOS 10.12 (Sierra) and therefore, many of the Creative Suite installers may not function normally on macOS 10.12. Hence it may or may not work, you may also have compatibility issues.

However, you may try installing the product again using workaround given here and see if that helps: Installing Creative Suite on macOS 10.12 (Sierra).

Let us know if this helps.

Hi.

I have already installed the product without problems.

When I launch indesign cs6, it crashes continually.

See this crash log, I think for the version "too old" for the new OS X system!
