Will this display easily connect to a Macbook Air?

It supports VGA, DVI, HDMI so if you have a converter into these it would work.

Yes - you will just need a DisplayPort to Mini-DisplayPort cable. If it is a recent MacBook Air, the Thunderbolt port is the same size as a Mini-Displayport connector and is backwards compatible. When connected via DisplayPort, if you set your sound output on the MacBook Air to the monitor and set the Monitor sound input to DisplayPort then the DisplayPort cable will carry both the video and audio over the single cable. You would then just need to connect a USB cable from the MacBook Air to the monitor if you want to use the USB Hub. Note, however, that since this monitor is not a Thunderbolt monitor, you will not have Thunderbolt capabilities (such as daisy-chaining thunderbolt devices) - don't think you were looking to do that anyway, but something to be aware of if you were looking for that functionality.

Yes. You need an adaptor as the cord is VGA; however, I have been successfully connecting it to a Macbook Air with no difficulty.

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.

if your MacBook air has a USB slot then it will yes. If no USB slot then no.

No. Thunderbolt supports Mini Display port (same connector). Display port is a larger connector, and is not supported on any Mac directly.

Hello Margaret, honestly I don't know, but I doubt you can do that. This Mac mini needs to be connected to an external display. Thanks forYou're quit and great luck!

That is correct. Mine worked very nice to connect my Mac Book Air to an external monitor.

First off - I would recommend getting a better Asus monitor like the 246 or 248 - the one with LED. I sold this one already. Answer to your question is yes. You can connect macbooks to any monitory but you need the display port converter (for hdmi/dvi). As for mac tower, if they take display port, it should not be a problem. Check at the apple store.

I have a MacBook Air with the most up to date software and mine works perfectly. I took a chance on this display screen and I'm glad I did. Never had any problems. Also you will need a converter for the screen to plug into your laptop. My converter is a DVI to mini display port covertor which I got at radio shack because I couldn't find one at any other store where I live.

Yes, you will need to plug the wireless receiver in the USB connector on the Mac Book Air. The mouse will look like a wired mouse to the Mac Book

We connect a MacBook Pro's Thunderbolt port (same as on the MacBook Air) to an old tv via RCA cables using ViewHD's Mini DisplayPort to TV video Converter. We had to change the display settings in System Prefs on the Mac but it works great and we're happy with the results.

According to Apple (http://www.apple.com/macbook-air/specs.html), yes, it is compatible.It's a USB-to-ethernet adapter, so you'll need a free USB port (the 11-inch model has two, just like the 13)

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.

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

Love my cinema displays (have three -- one bought new, two others bought used/refurbed thru Amazon). Just be sure the display you buy has the proper video connector for your MacBook -- I can't remember the year but at some point they changed the connector from the Cinema display to the PC to the mini connector plug (rather than an HDMI or DVI).

I don't have a Macbook air, however it works fine with my iMac, and no issues with OSX.
