After using the Download Assistant to download the Mac version of Photoshop CS6, I tried to install it as a trial. However, when I launch the Photoshop CS6 installation app, I receive an error message saying "We've encountered the following issues -- installer failed to initialize." The suggestion was to download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem. I followed this advice, but after running it, the result was "Inspection could not identify any issues. Please contact Adobe Support for further assistance." And now I'm stuck...

Even though CS6 was the first to support 64-bit architecture, it still had some 32-bit dependencies. What OS are you trying to install on? Depending on that you may need to consider upgrading to a CC license. If Photoshop is all you need, there is a subscription at $10/mo, or you prefer perpetual Photoshop Elements 2024 may be enough for you and is currently on sale at Adobe and official resellers through the end of the month for $69.99.
