Has anyone tried Mac OS 26 RC? Are Lightroom, Photoshop, and the Creative Cloud app now compatible with Mac OS 26? I've never updated a Mac major version since I switched to MAC, so I don't know if it's worth waiting for it to work reliably and stably, or if I can just go straight to the new system on September 15th. Thank you in advance for your answers.
A good thing to do is bookmark the Adobe compatibility article link below, and check on it until it’s updated to cover macOS 26 Tahoe. It lists the last few versions of macOS, indicates which versions of Creative Cloud apps are claimed to be compatible, and any known issues. The Known Issues column is pretty quiet now, but when macOS 15 was first released there were a lot more items in there.
Adobe apps compatibility with macOS
In addition, Adobe may post an article specifically about macOS 26

Hello,
I’m having a persistent display issue in Adobe Lightroom Classic when entering fullscreen mode on my external monitor.
System setup:
MacBook Pro 14" (M4 Pro chip)
macOS Tahoe (latest version)
Lightroom Classic (latest version)
External monitor: BenQ 3225U connected via USB-C
Issue description:
When switching to fullscreen mode on the external BenQ 3225U, Lightroom’s interface becomes distorted — the top black bar stays visible, the image area doesn’t scale correctly, and parts of the interface freeze or disappear.
The issue began right after updating to macOS Tahoe. Everything worked normally before that.
I’ve tried:
Resetting Lightroom preferences
Reinstalling Lightroom
Testing different cables and ports
Enabling/disabling GPU acceleration
The issue persists.
I’ve attached a screenshot showing the problem in action.
Could you please confirm if this is a known compatibility issue with macOS Tahoe, or provide a possible workaround?
Thank you for your help,
Jakub Machala
