I'm thinking of up-dating the OS on my MacBook from Mac OS 10.14 to 10.15 while 10.15 is still easily available, and at the same time up-dating from Finale 26.2 to 26.3. Are there any likely hazards for which I should watch? Will Finale 25.5 also still function on OS 10.15?
I expect to leave my desktop Mac Mini running OS 10.13 with Finale 25.5 & 26.2 - or might it be useful to up-date to 26.3 there too (while still running OS 10.13)?
Any advice or comments will be welcome. I like the MacBook to be reasonably up-to-date for reasons of security when travelling (not that I'm doing much of that during Covid).
Minor up-dates: F 26.2 to 26.3 & OS10.14 to 10.15?

2) The update from 26.2 to 26.3.1 should not be a problem, in your current or planned configuration.

I've up-dated to 26.3 now on my MacBook and will do the same soon on my desktop Mac. The expert in all things Mac from whom I routinely seek advice suggests that there's no real necessity for me to up-date to Catalina just now.
