    Correct answer Govardhan.V

    Step 1)

    Launch Activity Monitor and "Force Quit" all the process related to Adobe like Creative Cloud, CoreSync, AAMupdater, AAMupdater notifier, Adobe Crash demon , PDAPP, install , setup... from Activity monitor.

    Step 2)

    Trash Adobe Application Manager folder from Applications>Utilities.

    Step 3 )

    1) Right click on Finder icon and  select "Go-To Folder" option.
    2) You will get a text box, type-in below command and then hit 'Return' key.

    /library
      3)Then navigate to Application Support>Adobe.

    Open Adobe folder and rename OOBE folder to OOBE-old.

    Step 4)

    Click on the below link and download Adobe Application Manager and install the same :

    http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/creativesuite/cc/mac/ApplicationManager10.0_all.dmg

    Once the installation process is completed, installation box will disappear, then open Application folder and locate Adobe Application manager launch icon , double click on it and update .

    Once the update is completed. Try to install CS6 apps again.

    Branching to a new discussion.

    Babanatale if the install of CS6 is failing on Mac OS 10.11 then please review the installation logs to determine the error preventing installation.  Complete information on how to locate the installation logs is available at Troubleshoot install issues with log files in Adobe Creative Suite (CS6, CS5.5, CS5), PS Elements, and Premiere Elements​.

    You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover Babanatale.

    Apparently there is a problem when you have CC and your olde apps want to update through CC - so I have had to uninstall CC and use CC Cleaner .. This gave me my Photoshop back but didn't allow for Acrobat X Pro. I went in and did another clean, uninstall CS6 and the reinstall CS6; this time with no luck except the Warning (from above) ... This seems to go from bad to worse - I'm thinking of restoring my Yosemite, uninstalling CC and going from there... Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome.  Thanks again, David (aka Babanatale)

    Thank you...!  I will keep you posted...


    okay, After installing Adobe application Manager , it will get updated to Adobe Creative Cloud app, no need to sign in. Restart the Mac once and then after restart try to install CS6 , it shud work.

    Adobe Creative Cloud app is nothing but updated version of Adobe Application Manager which is necessary to manage Adobe apps on your Mac like Installation, Activation, Update...etc

    You can disable launch at login option as well if you like.

    1. Click on the menu bar icon.
    2. Click the gear icon.
    3. Select “Preferences…”
    4. Uncheck “Launch at login”.
    5. Note: The "Preferences" option does not appear until you log in to Creative Cloud using your Adobe ID and password.
