Can I expect this screen to run MacOS Yosemite on full, native resolution, 60Hz + retina scaling in system prefs ?

I am currently running this monitor on Mavericks at 60 Hz with full 4K resolution. There is scaling available in system preferences.

Yes. I have 2 and they are both running on my New Mac Pro. It all depsnds upon your computer video card(s)

I am currently running this monitor at its native 4K (ultraHD) resolution at 60 Hz refresh rate using a Thunderbolt 2 port on the late 2013Mac Pro with a minidisplay port to display port cable.

I am using it with Mavericks but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work with Yosemite.

EDIT: After reviewing current specs on Apple's website, they state that the 13inch macbook pro supports up to only 1080 video output over HDMI at 60hz. Once you go above that resolution, you might be dropped down to 30hz, which I don't think will be a good experience. I don't own a MacBook so cannot say for sure when the hz drop will occur (after 1080 or only once you hit 4k). Hopefully someone else can chime in. https://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/ Original: As long as your MacBook pro has HDMI out and you have the right cable for both ends, I don't see there being any trouble.

Sort of... I had to take a hack saw to the back end of it to make it fit. It will install and work just fine in Mavericks, but you will not get the Apple boot screen, and the system profiler will not recognize it as a Radeon HD5770, just an HD5000 (or 5700, I forget). I re-flashed it for a Mac, but I still didn't get the boot screen. It does show up as a Radeon HD5770 on the system profiler (under Graphics/Display), but under PCI Cards, it shows the link speed at 2.5 GT/s instead of the max possible 5.0 GT/s. Other than that, it's at least inexpensive.

My friend, I can tell you that 1920 X 1200 there is no problem, there are more space in desktop, this is not determinant. But I can't tell you if an specific application have any problem working with this resolution. The better resolution to work is 1440×900 for retina. In my opinion retina display it's awesome. I hope I could help you with something.

I have it connected to a 2014 MacBook Pro 13" Retina. The Display Preferences are "Best for display" or "Scaled (1080p, 1080i, 720p, 1600x900)". It also allows 50 Hertz or 60 Hertz Refresh Rate.

I note that for my 2011 MacBook Pro that has a thunderbolt port, a 3rd party site claims "The maximum resolution supported on an external display is 2560x1600."

Hello from Ecomade Arena, That is good question. Due to OS X restriction, Macbook with HDMI max resolution rate is 1920*1080 only. However, windows with HDMI max resolution rate is 2560*1440 (HDMI 1.4 supported graphic card only) so, Macbook user should be connect monitor via DP (Thunderbolt) port only. ASIN : B00HLCNNUO is 27QW DP model. It has DP port. Thank you

I'm sorry I don't have an answer to your question, but thanks for posting it. I'm looking for a great monitor for my Mac, and this is good to know. Best of luck to you!

It outputs standard 1920x1080 60P or 60i video. I assume Apple can afford to ignore that

Has anyone successfully used the r800 on a MacBook Pro running OSX Yosemite 10.10?

This monitor has a native resolution of 2560 x 1440 (which is definitely not 4K) and my macbook pro (2013 retina) automatically gave it a full resolution signal with an hdmi cable. So I'm not sure if either previous answer was correct.

Yes, I use this display at full resolution with my MacBooks. I'm using this cable: "Cable Matters Gold Plated Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt Port Compatible) to DisplayPort Cable" for my Macs, and this cable "Cables To Go 26911 DVI-D Male/Male Dual Link Digital Video Cable" for my Windows workstation.

Margaret, I'm sorry, but I don't think that will work. This Mac mini needs a display to work properly. Great luck!

You have three options as I ran into the same problem with my MacBook Air. 1) Hold down the option button when clicking the "scaled" radio button within the display preferences. This may reveal the resolution option. 2) Install ScreenResX and set a custom resolution. While this worked for me, it was a pain and I don't recommend it. http://www.madrau.com/ 3) Buy a mini display port to display port cable. When I bought this for $10 on amazon, plugging it in simply worked right out of the gate. No tricks necessary. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C7RJQPY/

I currently have a fully operational MacBook Pro MB470LL/A (15-inch, Late 2008) running OS X Yosemite. The MB604LL/A as the one you described is a 17-inch, Early 2009 MacBook Pro. All of them belong to a generation of MacBook Pros called "aluminum unibody" (powered by Intel Core processors) which are the 2nd generation of MacBook Pros. I do not foresee any reason why the MB604LL/A won't work on OS X Yosemite.
