Do you mean Photoshop CS6? Assume you're running a Mac? Which operating system?

Correct, CS6. I forgot the issue I was having with CS6, but with lightroom, I had to uninstall LR5 and go back to using LR4 because it would crash multiple times during use.

Photoshop version 6 was released 21 years  ago. Windows Me,  Windows XP, Mac OSX 10.0 Cheeta Time Frame.  Which of these OS version  are you running and have a problem with Photoshop 6?  Did you try resetting your Photoshop 6 preferences. Resetting Preferences is the first thing you should do when Photoshop stops working correctly.  Corrupt Preferences can case all sorts of Photoshop problems.

 

I do no install Lightroom I do not know what you should do when Lightroom stop working. Check to see if its library databases are intact.
