update manually,  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

Apparently, searchable  patches/updates for pre-CC products have apparently been pulled down from the Adobe website, rendering much of the older discussions on how to manually update pre-CC software of no value to anyone using CS6 and earlier.

A number of older Adobe discussions claim that Adobe's update servers have been "retired" but at least on version 6 and 7 of the Adobe Updater (for Mac), the app is still capable of validating that these end-of-life products are in need of patches/updates in the first place. In fact, in my experience (CS6/High Sierra) the Adobe Application Manager will even act like it is downloading the patches, only to report "There was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later. Error Code: U43M1D207".

I am following up on some of these discussions for the benefit of others who may need to know how to obtain manual updates now that they are no longer easily searchable on this website.

First, the website ProDesignTools has a page titled "Adobe CS6 Trials: Direct Download Links (no Manager or Assistant)" with information on how to manually update, and in particular look to the comment section for a reply from "Bryan" who has compiled an immensely helpful Mac/Windows archive of CS6 patches/updates.

Second, there is at least one recent (2023) Adobe discussion that suggests that these pre-CC updates are still available from Adobe via FTP (even for non-enterprise users): 

For sake of completeness, does anyone care to expand on how best to access manual update content on Adobe's FTP servers?

correct, most app updates are no longer accessible.
