I have installed AE CS6 version 11 on my Mac OSX 10.11.6.

Unfortunately when I tried to launch AE it gave me an error message : You can't use this version of the application with this version of OSX.

What should I do to solve this problem?

Thanks

Hi Rameez, 

I downloaded the update file of AF CS6 11.0.4 at the provided link but when I try to install it, this window appeared and I do not know how to enable upgrades as the administrator since everything is already allowed on my computer.

I have seen it mentioned that an OLD version of Java must be installed to get an old program (CS6 and earlier) working with your new operating system https://support.apple.com/kb/dl1572?locale=en_US

Make sure CS6 is up to date by running the updater. If it is, then check the minimum system requirements. I don't have time to do the research for you right now but there is a good chance that you'll need to either downgrade your OS or Upgrade your AE.
