Lightroom 'classic' not working

I currently have Lightroom 6 on a Macbook, and have since purchased a iMac. LR was migrated over onto the iMac, but doesn't open at all. I have no need of the Creative Cloud, currently, and would rather just use the software that I own. 

Any ideas or solutions to this?

It's very unlikely that LR 6 will run on a newer machine, and if it's a new M1/M2, it's impossible.

"Any ideas or solutions to this?"- One!

Subscribe to the Photoraphy Plan (20Gb)-  You do NOT need to use any of the Cloud features (except for installing and activation).

And you get Photoshop thrown in the bundle!

What version NUMBER of the Mac OS is on your new iMac? Lr 6 will not run on the newest Mac OS.
