READ HERE https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2301916 for an Adobe solution to installing old programs, including a link to installing the old Java runtime that is required

Owners of old programs simply have problems with Mac El Capitan/Sierra... none of which is Adobe's fault... Adobe did not change your old program to make it stop working... Apple changed their operating system and THAT is why your old programs won't work, not because of anything Adobe did... Also... every time Apple issues an update, there is the risk that an old program that HAS been working will STOP working... bottom line, old programs require a matching old operating system

Upgrade the Mac, expect to pay again for all apps.

When you updated your Mac - did you reinstall the apps? Updating OS changes folder directories needed by Adobe apps, especially CS6.

Check out John T's post - that is the best option for you going forward with CS6 and new Mac OS.
