this adapter works for my Macbook Pro pretty well, but it does not work for my Air. I tried many times. I do not know where the problem is.

Which Macbook Air do you have? how to identify: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3255According to Apple, only Air models 2011 and later will have Thunderbolt support. see:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5299

Anastasia, Try some other USB device in the same USB port you are using this adopter. Coz in my Macbook Pro, I found one of my USB port is not working. Or try this in second USB port of your MacBook Air. and click on system preference go to network and see if it detects thunderbolt as device. May be it is not active there. Let me know if still is doesn't work.

This adapter will work on any Mac with a Thunderbolt port. If it doesn't pick it up you might need to go to System Preferences and then Network and see it is being detected there

If the MacBook Air has a USB port, then yes. It would also help if the particular MacBook Air were USB 3.0 compliant.

I believe that it is only USB through the adapter, I don't have a mac but I would think you could check the company's website to see if they support it.

Yes. I have used it for both Mac Air 11 & 13 with no issues. Definetly handy to have in your bag if your traveling and need to go hard line

I have a MacBook air same size and it works great. Just remember that even though it is wireless it does not connect through Bluetooth. A small usb adapter connects to the usb port of your laptop. I recommend buying it.

I am sorry but I have not experienced a problem with the adapter. I would think Robinair would be able to help. Sorry.

I am not sure if you can use it on the Apple Macbook. If you have a UBS port, try it and see if it works. My husband has a Dell computer. He uses this adapter for plugging in his older 2 prong headset. He has a lot of conference calls and this works extremely well for him. Since he travels a lot, we bought 2 so that he has a backup. He is still on his first one. He hasn't had any trouble and it works great for him.

With an adapter like this one - Sabrent USB 2.0 Virtual External 7.1 Surround Sound Adapter (USB-AUDD)It has poor reviews, but it works just fine for me at 1/3 of the cost of the other linked item. I have a MacBook Air without even as many inputs as the Pro.

I am not sure about the Mac mini, but I have a newer Mac air and it works with an adapter you can buy at any apple store

When i first purchased it, it worked fine on my Mac Book Air a year ago. I am sure it should be no problem with a Mac.

I've used this with the 13" 2013 Macbook Air with OS X 10.9 Mavericks with no problems. Now I'm on the public beta 2 of OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) also with no problems. My MBA is connected via thunderbolt to a 24" 1080p monitor AND this adapter (USB3 > Etekcity adapter > HDMI attachment > TV). It is obviously quite a bit delayed response time but I only use it for video playback (which works fine). The only difference between the 2013 and 2014 models of macbook airs are the minor processor speed bump; the processors are otherwise the same.

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.
