Will the upgrade to Photoshop

Question

Will the upgrade to Photoshop and Lightroom CC align with the Apple MacBook release of Yosimite OS ?  Please advise.

Answer 1

Are you asking whether the current release of Photoshop will work on Yosemite?  Or whether there will be an update that coincides with the release date of Yosemite?
As a fellow user I can't speak for Adobe and I can only offer observations...
Adobe doesn't march to the beat of other companies' drums, but they've been known to acknowledge new operating system releases and put out updates to ensure their software works.  That's assuming it doesn't work right out of the box of course.  The one thing they really never do ahead of time is promise particular release contents or dates, though they do release updates through the Creative Cloud system fairly often.
Some folks have reported problems here on the forum with Photoshop on beta versions of Yosemite.  That may mean nothing because people don't often go to a forum to say "it works!" and there are people reporting problems with Photoshop on older versions of OSX as well.  But it's important to note that a failure of an application to work on a beta operating system necessarily needs to be taken with a grain of salt.
Here's a suggestion for a strategy (not necessarily aimed at you in particular, sailor dan):
Wait until Yosemite has actually been released, but don't install it.  Then come here and find out how well others are finding Photoshop to work with it.  Do the same with other major applications you need.  Nothing says you have to upgrade your operating system first THEN find out if your apps work.
You're right to be planning ahead.  Just don't be blinded by a desire to get the latest and greatest until you've confirmed the integration of all the software you need can work properly.
