You do not transfer, you do a fresh install
If you are no longer going to use the program on your old computer, you need to DE-activate to release the activation count

Then you install on your new computer... IF that very old version will even install at all

CS6 and earlier programs HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED AND WILL NOT BE UPDATED for Mac El Capitan or newer operating systems
-which means that you try to use CS6 and earlier at YOUR risk of having problems due to Apple updates
-this is about CS6 (which is from 2012) but it will probably apply to other programs of that age
-Apple did not maintain backward compatibility with old programs in El Capitan or newer operating systems
--Adobe has a workaround to Apple's problem of not maintaining backward compatibility
