Folks, I just downloaded Adobe CC 2015 since it popped up this morning.
READ THIS FIRST BEFORE UPDATING
If you use add-on tools like Nik Collection, Topaz, onOne Perfect Photo, DxO FilmPak or anything else, well, you're screwed. The installation of PS CC 2015 will not carry over installations of 3rd party software (this happened with CC 2014 as well), so you will have to reinstall all your add-ons. The problem is, none of the installation scripts recognize PS CC 2015, and the install deletes your PS CC 2014 software. So, unless you have CS6 you're not going to be able to use those tools directly from PS CC 2015.
You can work around this by invoking the s/w from Lightroom. Save your work in PS so it shows up in your LR catalog. Then invoke the 3rd party s/w which will create a new TIFF file. Open the new TIFF in CC 2015 and then copy it into your working photo as a new layer. Royal PITA, but it's you're only choice if you need to work that way.
I have no idea if things like onOne 8.5 will ever be usable in CC 2015 as it requires them to issue a new installation script for an old product. I'm counting on Adobe to fix this if the 3rd party vendors won't.
