Luiz,

Has anyone had any problems with Mac OS High Sierra?

Yes.  There were a number of problems with the initial release of macOS High Sierra:

As for Photo Mechanic compatibility, we have fixed a number of macOS High Sierra issues that early adopters experienced.

My suggestion to anyone that doesn't need to upgrade would be to hold off until the third update arrives.

I personally have had the Finder crash multiple times per hour and I can't live on the new OS for development work.

Kirk, I have had some finder issues that turned out to be caused by Paragon's utility for mounting windows volumes. If you're using Paragon, it might be the culprit...

I'm not using any third-party software on 10.13 but luckily I don't have to "live" on the new OS.

Does the release of High Sierra 10.13.1 resolve the know issue with PM?

No but it adds some new emojis that's where Apple's engineering focus is at right now.

Hi, everybody.
In your opinion would you consider it is already safe to upgrade to MacOS High Sierra, in terms of compatibility with PM?
Thanks in advance

I'd still suggest staying away from High Sierra, but if you feel you must upgrade, Apple finally fixed a nasty bug in the new APFS file system that we reported to them.
