I am on Office 2018 and would like to uninstall Microsoft Update. Does someone know how to do it?
Got a tip for us?

What have you done with an obsolete OSX Mojave Today?

If it's anything like Office 2016, you should find the Microsoft AutoUpdate app in "/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Microsoft AutoUpdate.app" Just delete the file. There's also a .plist file in "/Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.autoupdate2.plist" Delete this file as well.
Obsolete? I am only now starting to upgrade into the Mojave. 
😂
I've been perfectly happy with the High Sierra forever but recently bumped into something that demanded 10.14 as minimum. So, on my MBP's I started to migrate to Mojave. I also upgraded our home Mac Mini Server to Mojave too. Seems to work just great in all of them.
My main machine (iMac 27" i7 2011) needs a GPU upgrade before going into Mojave though. So, that one is still running HS, until I get into installing the card.
My wife runs Catalina in her 2012 i7 Mac Mini Server (used as a desktop computer) because she has lots of work software that demands 10.15. No problems with her machine though.

I just read all posts in this thread, yet again!

I am in the middle of replacing Catalina with Mojave now on the MBPro 2012
I probably need to remove the ssd drive,
place that in a enclosure
install in older MacBook air
format that to Mac Journals
place into the MBP
install Mojave
install CS4 which does not work with AF?? front drives.
all worth teh efforts!
Mojave RULES!

well I finally (after under an hour) installed a fresh version of Mojave with CS4
on the MacBook Pro 2012, 525GB and 16 GbRAM.
the trick was to migrate the CS4 via "migration"
Mojave has a great feel, responsive and that screen saver is incredible!
there are more points on why this Sox is my favorite has produced.
but we all know these.
have fun Mojavians!

You might consider getting a external gpu enclosure and put on a decent gpu with at least 8gb ram and hook it up via thunderbolt/firewire. I have my 2014 macmini running my windows based machine using Radeon RX570 and It can run many games via my Sonnet enclosure. I did had to do a hack I found on youtube for my rig to recognize the external box first vs the internal gpu.Obsolete? I am only now starting to upgrade into the Mojave.

Anyone else having mega trouble signing into iTunes via a passwriod with Mojave?
I used both icloud account and the prompt kept asking for the password
the second one wanted a 2 step verification with my Macbbok air-El Capwhich accepted the password
only to have an empty box asking for the password again.
which is strange because El Capitan works perfect.
Update
the 5th time was a charm, everything works!

Besidea all the cumulative complaints since Mojave (dropping iTunes, dropping 32-bit support, etc), my only minor complaints with Monterey are: I really dislike the default boot wallpaper too bad it can’t be changed; I don’t like that the Books app no longer lets me display the book title and author beneath each book; and prior to Monterey I could copy and paste a photo in Contacts when updating photo, now with Monterey I have to drag and drop or choose a photo that’s already in my Photo Library. It’s a minor thing but for the past decade, I could go to LinkedIn or Twitter and screen capture a photo, crop it in Preview then CTRL+A/CTRL+C and then switch to Contacts and CTRL+V on the photo and it would update. Just got used to that method. Now I have to edit the photo then grab the photo file and drag it to contacts. I don’t do it often so not a show stopper, but still prefer Mojave to Monterey.
I'm on Big Sur after "having " had to abandon Mojave for photography reasons. I'm still using iTunes after installing it, using Retroactive. Not bad after all.
In conjunction with Apple Configurator it works the way I want
Same here. But Apple threw and update 14.1.2 and the problem is no more.
Which browser do you use guys?
I have a Macbook Retina 2017 (M3/8GB/256GB) and I just can't feel a good experience with Catalina and the later OS. I always do a install of High Sierra again which is the one that works flawless for me.
With Mojave the experience is basically the same. And also.. iTunes!

Firefox of course!
I didn't find High Sierra all that good. Actually the Finder felt off. Mojave fixed all that and then some.

Created a dual boot system on my cMP 5.1 (mid-2012):
1. macOS Mojave 10.14.6 - Bare Metal <- just can't say goodbye to her.
2. macOS Monterey 12.6.3 - Open Core Legacy Patcher 0.6.1 <- sorry gals and guys. 😇
Have a nice and quite Sunday afternoon ya'll.

Interesting. How is the performance and battery use?
Yeah! Firefox is always a good choise. I'm currently using Edge in my Windows machines and works good with Mac OS too but sometimes i miss Firefox and all related to him (Privacy, performance, etc)
Better than Chrome or Firefox, it's not that demanding on CPU/GPU performance when playing youtube videos.
How did you do this? Would the Open Core Legacy Patcher interfere with the Mojave install?Created a dual boot system on my cMP 5.1 (mid-2012):

I clean installed macOS Monterey following - to each and every word! - the video tutorial by Mr. Macintosh on YouTube on one of my SSDs in my cMP 5,1.
I have no interference with the separate SSD installed macOS Mojave 10.14.6. at all.
See my SSD setup below:
Please be aware! Make sure you have a very tight backup scheme, I have multiple - BOOTABLE - Carbon Cloner Copy backups of macOS Mojave and Monterey on external HDD - Raid1 - enclosures.

Oh, okay, you installed it on a separate drive. I thought you had partitioned your SDD. Separate drives would definitely make it easier.
