I have looked at Adobe and Apple support sites, and I really just want to know if Adobe Photoshop CS6 will run on Mojave. Answers seem somewhat vague and qualified.
At this time I would rather stay with High Sierra than be forced onto a subscription platform to use Photoshop.

You can clone your main volume to an external drive and boot the OS from it. It will be working slower if the external is a spinning hard drive connected via USB 3.0 (and fast if it's a SSD via Thunderbolt), but it should be fully functional. You can upgrade that external install then to see what works, keeping your main hard drive install intact.
For drive cloning, free versions of SuperDuper! or Carbon Copy Cloner should suffice.
Can you install Mojave on an external disk and install CS6 on that to road test it before committing yourself to upgrading your Macs internal disk.
Here is a screenshot of the Roaring Apps website with info on Photoshop compatibility and Mojave.
I haven't installed CS6 Extended on my Mojave as yet but as it worked on High Sierra I am pretty sure it will be fine in Mojave.
Thanks. I checked that site and it has a "?" for Photoshop CS6 Extended, which is what I have. Apparently, that just means "no data", but I'm still wondering as I've seen other posts on other sites that suggest the programs aren't compatible. I'm certain Adobe wants folks to "upgrade" to their subscription platform rather than patch CS6.
Thanks for your response. Good luck.
Thanks. I'll consider that, but it may be more work than I'm willing to undergo given that my system is working fine right now. Also, I'm not sure if that platform might really replicate an installation on my Mac with all of the other apps residing there. This will probably sort itself out in time.
Will Adobe Photoshop CS6 run on MacOS Mojave?
