I just upgraded to the latest Photoshop CC, and I find I'm losing saturation when exporting to .jpg. the .psd actually looks quite over saturated, and then the .jpg looks under saturated. Anyone have a similar experience?
No, I have not. Is your PS Color Profile sRGB? Is that what the jpeg is being saved as?

As ArtBob says, check your color space. I noticed mine changed between LR and PS, so when I exported something that I worked on, the colors became ridiculous, like any changes are super red, but the parts I didn't touch were washed out.
Once I thought to look at the color space, and made everything sRGB, everything was back to normal. Of course, I wasted a bunch of time before figuring it out.

OK, we're a bit at the edge of my competence here. When I export to jpeg, "convert to sRGB" is checked; and Edit>Color Settings shows Working Space RGB is sRGB, and Color Management Policies shows "Preserve Embedded Profiles." Edit>Assign Color Profile changed to sRGB. Little to no difference.
If there's something I'm missing regarding Color Profiles, I'm happy to be instructed.

It's a mystery to me, then. Perhaps Googling, if you haven't already?
Check "No color management." I understand that image-display devices all expect the sRGB color space.

OK, where do I go to check No color management?
In Photoshop, click on File in the Menu bar > Export > Save for Web (Legacy).
[Note: You'll have to have an image loaded into Photoshop for this method to work.]
In the Save for Web panel that comes up, to the right you will see a check box next to Convert to sRGB. Check this box.
Below it, you will see Preview. In the box next to it you will see wording that describes a format for your images. At the right end of this box, you will see a down arrow.
Click on this down arrow. From the drop down menu, select "Internet Standard RGB (No Color Management)."
Now your images saved as JPEGs will show properly on other display deivices.

Well, thanks so much for your other view. It seems to be working. I'll get back to you if my initial impression turns out to be wrong, but for now things seem to be as I think they should be. Thanks again.
You're welcome. Glad I could help out.

Although I thought your fix worked, it turned out not to. I finally called Adobe just now, waited for nearly 45 minutes to actually talk to someone in New Delhi, and then, nearly an hour later, it seems to be resolved. Fundamentally, the solution provided was resetting my iMac screen calibration to sRGB. Regardless, I appreciate your help.
Yes, all the devices must read the same color space: "Fundamentally, the solution provided was resetting my iMac screen calibration to sRGB."
