Unfortunately the last compatible Camera Raw version for CS6 was 9.11 and the earliest version required to open CR3 files is 11.3.

You can try using the DNG converter to convert your files to DNG choosing the appropriate Camera Raw version and then  opening those in CS6.

That's correct. The Adobe Camera Raw that does the hard work for Photoshop will not be updated to newer cameras. The solution is to upgrade your Photoshop. A workaround is the DNG Converter. This free software reads your CR3 and converts it to a DNG that can be read by CS6.

That is it. You did it. It worked perfectly. The Adobe how-to video on that page was truly helpful, too. I spent hours trying to figure this out and you both solved it for me in one minute . Thank you Kevin and thank you Abamo.
