Has anyone completed the new upgrade and, if so, did you encounter any issues with LR, PS or others?

So far i have not. I'm a little hesitant to do it.

I have, and there were no problems with Adobe programs. Had a problem with contacts, but Apple Support cleared it up.

This is a repeat topic. The simple answer is yes, you can upgrade without any problems with Adobe programs. Or, pretty much any other program. I have a couple of menubar items that tinker with the system, and they needed to be updated as well, but I just checked, and this Mac I'm on hasn't been rebooted in 17 days, and it's been longer since I upgrade to Mojave.

Yes I upgraded the day it came out.

No problems with PS Creative Cloud (subscription).

However there was an Adobe 2019 CC update released about the same time as Mojave, and I installed the CC 2019 update as well.

There is a report about the blending tool not showing correct color cast in PS CC 2019. But that is an Adobe problem not a Mojave problem. The reported work-around is to go to preferences and change to the Legacy Compositing Engine.

Just make sure you have the latest PS and LR, Mojave only runs 64-bit applications. If you want to check your current applications for 64-bit v 32-bit go to the following;
>Apple Icon
>About this MAC
>System Report (button lower left)
>Software/Application (from the list on the left)
Adjust the window so you can see the 5th column on the right, this is a Yes/No 64-Bit notation of each application on your Mac.

My 2009 macpro will not upgrade. Perhaps time to replace but unit has worked flawlessly since initial purchase. Perhaps not.

I have upgraded to Mojave and have had no problems with any software. But then I use Aroura HDR 2019. Not LR.

Thanks for the helpful suggestion. I did perform this check and found number of non 64-bit applications in general and also Adobe Extension Manager CC. In addition, X-Rite ColorMunki Display calibration software is not 64-bit (latest version 1.1.5). Also what would happen with non 64-bit software after Mojave install. I realize that they wouldn't work, but am more concerned about them possibly disrupting the OS or other apps.

I normally wait until after the first or second i.e. Mojave 1.1, 1.11 to get all the bugs out.

Be careful if you have older accessories such as printers and scanners. I just upgraded my Mac Mini and MacBook Pro from Sierra to High Sierra and now my older Epson R2400 printer will not print. Still trying to find a solution.

I did the update the day it was released and have had no issues whatsoever

The Stitch program supplied by Canon is gone as not 64 bit.

32-bit programs will run under MacOS Majave. See an overview of this at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208436 , which includes: "While developers optimize their apps for 64-bit compatibility, Apple is notifying customers when they are using an app based on 32-bit technology. This is done via a one-time alert that appears when you launch a 32-bit app. In macOS Mojave, this alert appears once every 30 days when launching the app."
