does this work on a Macbook Air with OS X Yosemite?

I'm almost positive it does. I have a coworker with a Macbook air who borrowed mine successfully. I'm not sure what OS they were on, but it was just a week or two ago and I'd be shocked if they weren't running Yosemite.

I can't give a definite answer on the MacBook Air, but I've used it with my MacBook Pro Retina and it works perfectly. The only issue I've had with it was that it wasn't compatible with my external USB 3 card that I put in my Mac Tower. So if it's just for your Air, I'd say you're safe giving it a go. Hope that helps.

It did work with my MacBook Pro and Yosemite, but now I have a MacBook 12 running el Capitan Beta and it does not respond at all. The last time drivers were updated by ASUS was June 2014. If you get this, your future with it will probably be very short.

Yes it will with a simple OS hack in terminal, go to this website to figure out how. http://www.hardturm.ch/luz/2011/10/how-to-make-the-macbook-air-superdrive-work-with-any-mac/

As far as I know. I interchange use with it with a brand new air and an older MacBook standard...works flawless, no installs or anything

There is a guide to getting it to work under Mac OS X... but it's not officially supported, and doesn't have any OS X specific keys...http://5thirtyone.com/archives/751

No it will not work. The MacBook Air charges with a MagSafe power adapter not with a USB connection. This device only charges USB devices.

Yes, I was using it with Mavericks, I've now upgraded to Yosemite but haven't used this with it yet.

If the Mac Air has a mini display port on it, then it should. The manual for the Mac Air should also detail how the hook up is done to a VGA device and activated, which is pretty standard for Mac's. Good luck!

It work with Bluetooth. If MacBook Air works like Bluetooth I guess it would.

I have not used it on a MacBook Air, but Apple makes a proprietary FireWire adapter for the Thunderbolt port. If you MacBook Air predates Thunderbolt, it may be hard because your hard drive is supposed to operate off of a threshold speed. If you have Thunderbolt, you will need to buy Apple's adapter, then this, and I would imagine you could hook it up pretty easily. If you MacBook Air predates Thunderbolt, I am not sure what you would do.

Hi, sorry, I don't have a MacBook Air, so I can't comment with certainty. But, if the Air has a HDMI port, then it should work, with iTunes, without an issue. It connects my Apple TV to a VGA projector perfectly.

No. I do not believe the MacBook Air has an Mini Digital Optical SPDIF Audio output port.

I use this with a macbook air as well and it works great. The only thing better would be a wireless option.

My wife's Mac Book Air uses Yosemite 10.10 and it's worked for her. Basically, if you have a usb port, your Mac should recognize it.
