Adobe Premiere Pro & Mac OS 10.15

[josephb59848724]

I'm thinking of upgrading my OS to 10.15, but I want to make sure Premiere Pro will be able to run on it beforehand. I remember hearing about some issues Premiere had on 10.15, but I'm not finding anything anymore. I also no that Adobe came out with 13.1.5, but I don't see anywhere in the notes that this is optimized for 10.15. Wondering if any of you guys have experienced issues with running the latest version of Premiere on Mac OS 10.15

I'm not a mac guy, but I saw this Adobe link which talks about Adobe Apps and Catalina.

Hi Joseph,

It should work OK, but most editors tend to hang back and wait for others to update first. We are a paranoid lot that tends to try to finish up older projects before updating the OS or Premiere Pro. Then, we start mainly new projects on the new OS and new versions of Premiere Pro. Not a hard and fast rule, but more of a guideline. Hard to find a precise time "between projects." 

You may want to hold off until the next version of Premeire Pro is launched, then jump at the best time possible. Some even wait until the point updates for the OS and for Premiere Pro. Up to you though!

it's pretty old thread 8 months back. However I was using premiere pro on macos catalina 10.15.4 then I believe from 10.15.5 app crashes on launch specifically premiere, audition, after effects, media encoder. trying to figure out this to work..

Pesonally I'd stay one major MacOS release behind Catalina for a little longer. On my Mac I'm still running Sierra & Premiere Pro 2019 and at another Mac based facility I'm working at - Mojave and Premiere Pro 2019. On both platforms we'll make the move to Catalina and Premiere Pro 2020 probably with the next major point release of Premiere Pro.

Keep in mind and depending on what MacOS you are currently running you *may* lose some functionality on the move to Catalina. Particularly anything supported by QuickTime 7 - which will no longer run in Catalina.
