You cannot upgrade from CS2 to CS6 which is way too many versions away. You need to purchase the Full version.

Only till Dec 31, 2012, you can upgrade from CS3 to CS6. After that, the upgrade to CS6 is available only from CS4, CS5 and CS5.5..

Slight correction:

"Only till Dec 31, 2012, you can upgrade from CS3 or CS4 to CS6. After that, the upgrade to CS6 is available only from CS4, CS5 and CS5.5."
