Trying to manually install the updates to CS6 Illustrator

[Borges_Lettering]

I am trying to manually update CS6 Illutstrator for windows and MAC.

This is the update page to manually update your products.

https://supportdownloads.adobe.com/product.jsp?product=27&platform=Macintosh

I am trying to download 16.2.2 and when I click download it has a broken link.

Can anyone help on this matter. These updates are critical to the older products. 

Any help would be appreciated. 🙂

Borges,

I am afraid you will have to ask Adobe for the download(s).

Simply contact the Adobe support team at https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html, and if needed request to be put in contact with the Adobe Genuine team.

Hi,

16.2.2 is the subscription version. Download 16.0.5 if you purchased on disk or download.
However, it is also "Not Found".

The requested URL /pub/adobe/illustrator/mac/cs6/Illustrator_16.0_Patcher_16.0.5_osx10_mul_16.0.5_691_1.0_Installer_Patcher/AdobeIllustrator_CS6_16_0_5.dmg was not found on this server.

Hello Borges,

I just found your post because I'm having exactly the same problem. Did you get any response from Adobe, or have the file already and could share it with me?

Thanks so much,

Miro

Hi I'm having the same issue. Adobe support told me to go to that link - but it isn't working. Does anybody have the Illustrator update 16.0.5? Could anybody please share it? 🙂

Hey Sweeetah, I finally found a version in another forum. It's not 16.0.5, but 16.0.4 and the patch worked for me as a fix for the retina issue:

Hi, could you mind share it again please, it's expired

[LUkas LEboss]

Hello,

Could you please tell me which file is no longer available?

Because if you are asking for the Web Archive links I posted they still
work.

[alamery]

The problem is only the retina doesn't working properly with the installed version. 13.0, I don't know which patch will solve this issue, most of updates I've downloaded couldn't able to install them, getting errors, and most of them they're working.

My OSX , High Sierra 

Awaiting your advice 

[alamery]

Can you please renew the link and send it again ?

[Jacob Bugge]

alamery,

I am afraid that miro has been absent from the forums since that post in February.

Have you tried the suggestions that Lukas posted?

[mirodenck]

Hello there, sorry for the long delay, I missed the posts here the first time around.

If it's not too late, here we go:

Guess what I found after searching online for a while !

Here is AdobeIllustrator_CS6_16_2_2_upd.dmg :

I was able to download the 16.2 DMG for Illustrator, but it won't apply the patch (it says Update Failed - Adobe Application Manager may be damaged. Download and install a new copy of Adobe Application Manager). Any workarounds to patch to get retina support working again on Illustrator CS6?

Hi,

It was a while back so I don't remember everything but I had issues similar to you with some Adobe software. What I did for instance is instead of trying to go from 9.0 to 9.2, I did all the small updates like 9.0.1.

But sadly I think for their web design app, no matter what I tried it wouldn't work. Of with Illustrator I think I was able to install only two updates.

I hope it helps, I also tried opening the downloaded packages (DMG) and see if I could force install some stuff but it wouldn't work.
