Hi

As one of our product is developed by Flash and ActionScript2.0, I need to have a tool to maintain and develop it.

I tried to download the trial version of CS6 and installed on my Mac OS 10.12.3 but it failed.

I checked some forums and many people said that Adobe CCT or Animate CC doesn't support ActionScript 2.0.

My question is that I need tool/software to maintain and develop legacy product which is developed by Adobe Flash Professional CS6 and it's ActionScript 2.0 but I can't purchase it or use Animate CC to maintain/develop it, how do solve my problem?

Thank you.

Flash Pro CS6 needs the older version of Java, which you can get here:

Download Java for OS X 2015-001

Once that's installed it works ok in either 10.12.x, or even 10.13.

Thanks to your answer.

I installed the legacy Java and it still disallowed to install the CS6 and the error message is similar like that the Install script can't initialize and it said that maybe some files lost.

I still can't install the CS6 on my Mac OS

Make sure you did the install from the link I gave. The More Info you're shown takes you to the wrong version of Java.

Do you have a CC subscription? If you do you can install a fresh CS6 from the Previous Versions list, the the CC menu Apps tab.

If you don't have a subscription, but you do have a serial number, you can get the installer from here:

Download Adobe Creative Suite 6 applications

Could be worth doing an uninstall before trying a fresh install.
