Hi, I use it for meetings of up to 100 people in a small fellowship hall for Sunday School classes. It works very well. It has an hdmi port and I think your MacBook Pro should have one. If not a mini display port to hdmi adaptar will work.

It would definately work for a small or even large setting. I filled a 6' x 6' screen with it today in bright lighting and it was just slightly dim. I am using a windows based laptop but the instructions also provide set up for IOS based devices like the MacBook. I can use my iPad with the HDMI cable and the lightening to HDMI Apple adapter and it works fine.

yes, I use it with my mac and it offers a very clear picture and audio. I highly recommend it.

It would work in a small congregational setting but as for compatibility with MacBook Pro--that I don't know.

I use it Windows XP, with an inventory/sales program and also a library cataloging program. Plugs into the USB port, and you're good to go. We do not have any Macs at work, do not know compatibility.

It won't work with PowerPoint, and probably not Keynote either. The remote is just a cut-down bluetooth keyboard with only the media keys. If the media keys on your keyboard do what you want, then the remote will do it too. Otherwise it won't.

If you can find it, the Dell X51 is excellent. With the right adapter, it can even run Powerpoint directly with a VGA projector. I used this feature extensively when I was lecturing. It's harder to get it to work with the current crops of PC. The Ipod Touch is an is another excellent standalone PDA, and easier synced with itune.

Yes, I just purchased it and used it on a Mac Air, about 3 years old, running Maverick, 10.9.3. All buttons and functions work perfectly, including starting the slide show and the button for making the slide go black during the presentation. I am using it with Powerpoint, have not tested it with Keynote.

Sorry, I have a Mac and they state that it only works with Windows. Hope someone else can help.

I use it at school in my Macbook Pro as well as at my church's iMac. As long as there is a thunderbolt port. Go tohttp://support.apple.com/kb/ht5219#4 for more info.

Hello A. Keller, Thanks for your interest! After researching it on HP website, it seems like it is NOT compatible with a Mac depending on the OS you are running. We recommend you look it up online before you buy and make the determination.

I don't know about from a PC, but from a Mac, you can't do anything special! That's my big disappointment with this product - it's advertised as Mac-compatible but it is only for the most basic functions.

I have a Mac, but not a PC. Works great with the Mac. Actually, just ordered another for my college-age daughter who used mine (her Mac) and now wants one for research with Evernote (?).

We use it with both Mac and PC interchangeably at our church depending upon who is running the ppt.

Not having a MAC, I researched and found on the Amazon site where I purchased mine: For Business Presentations & Personal Media Sharing, USB Plug 'n Play instant set up; Apple Mac and PC Compatible. Also, additional features include adjustable tripod, 1280x800 VGA input support, 1920x1080 HDMI support, Micro SD Card slot, USB port, composite video input, and 3.5mm headphone jack. Our show season is starting next week, and although we've tested it, I don't remember the wireless part...Sorry about that part! But it's a great little machine. The 2.2 lb. shipping really refers to the 1 1/2 lb. box! This little guy is phenomenally light!!

It should. Definitely runs fine with my 2010 MacBook Pro, running OS X 10.9.2. I use it for Skype when I use my Mac in "lid-closed" mode, tucked on a little shelf under my desk and attached to an external monitor. Both the mic and camera in the webcam work fine for me. If I remember correctly, it just worked right away - didn't need to install any drivers.

I assume it's compatible with either PC or MAC...however, I sent mine back because it didn't perform as advertised.

Sorry but I've only used it with PCs so can't speak from experience but the manual does mention using it with a MAC
