Has anyone installed this on a Apple computer running 10.7.5 or higher? I have a Mac Pro 1,1. One review on here stated it did not for them. Help.

Sorry, I've stayed with PowerPC. There it works fine. It may not be a bootable USB connection on your Mac Pro. First see if the card is physically compatible. If you can't use a PCI card in your Pro, you need to find another solution.

Dear Friend,I will quote the answer from the instructions included with the product. "For Macintosh users, you can find the software and installation instructions for MAC 10.4, 10.5 is under the MAC directory on the provided CD." I hope this answers your question.

I did get a firmware update on mine (using a Windows PC). I'm not an Apple person, so I'm not sure if updates work via Mac. I don't think it took long for the update. Do you have any friends with a PC that would let you borrow it for this purpose?

What type of mac do you have? All the other posts I have read say that you need all updated software and then it does work.

I had the old version which was a USB 2 version which worked well but since I purchased a new computer with USB 3, that is how I use it. Just now I plugged it into my Macbook Pro which has USB 2 and it works beautifully. It should be noted that the first time I plugged it into my new Mac Pro, it did not work. It had me going till I decided to check to see I had plugged it in all the way. Hopefully you can get yours working properly and if not try to get it replaced with another. It will be worth it when working with large files. Good Luck

I have a MacBook - Mac OSX 10.7.5, and it works very, very well for me. I've really enjoyed using it. I would think it would be the same for you.

The link is back up. Can anyone comment on the Mac drivers? I'm thinking about buying one of these if it works well.

I installed the card in my 2008 Mac Pro and have several external drives attached. Seems to work OK *except* that every time I wake my Mac from sleep, I get a warning that my external drives were not ejected properly. Anyone know how to fix this?

I ordered this for Mac OS 10.4.8 before reading these messages. Is anyone using it on a Mac? Does it use a Logitech or third-party driver as mentioned above?

It didn't work with my Mac Book Pro Version 10-6-8. It needs to have the little in fared light and mine didn't. Check it out first.

Mac Pro? Then yes. The only part that does not work is during boot. Because it does not have a EFI Rom it only starts working once you get to the login screen. I haven't tried it but this could cause problems if you have encrypted your drive because I believe the password prompt would never show up. Other than that it works perfectly and is a great improvement to drive my 4k display - I can finally use mission control without it stuttering. During updates it can also look like nothing is happening for a while as the update progress is not displayed, just wait. Keep your old card around for new installs or if you run into issues where you need to see the boot process.

it runs just fine on my MAC PRO w/ OS 10.8.5. don't know about the MAC Book Air? you should buy it and tell ADOBE where to stick their Creative Cloud!

Sorry. Don't have a Mac. However, From what I have read and experiencing the ease of installing, I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work well with a Mac.

I also have a Mac and had the same issue. Call the company and they will walk you though the installation process. It was quick and easy!

I have a MacPro mid 2010 and the card works fine. I don't have information on any other Mac Pro's.

If this helps, mine is running on the Mac Pro 1,1 Quad-Core (MA356*/A) and handles Yosemite perfectly.

I havent been able to find any good software for my hackintosh i am running 10.7 but there was some software solutions but i have not been able to get any of them to work. It was much easier to get it to run on windows and with mac that of course is possible as well.
