It does work with a Macbook Pro laptop. However, it will depend on your computers model if it supports the software when you press the Menu button. Mine, for instance, does not include this software anymore (Apple decided to cut it out) so it is good for up volume, down volume, next song, previous song, pause, play. Hope this is useful.

Yes, your TV screen will display what is showing on your MacBook Pro. Depending on your tv and computer's resolution, you will need to make some adjustments with your TV remote to fit it perfectly. The sound will be projected from your MacBook Pro.

As far as I know older macbooks cannot send sound through the HDMI port. When I hooked my macbook pro up to the TV I had to also plug in a headphone jack. I'm not sure if this will work with only a TV as I have an AV receiver to route sound through. If you have an AV receiver that has optical audio capability, your macbook (pro?) can output optical audio, at a much better quality than analog, by using a mini toslink adapter. Good luck.

This does not work with the MacBook Pro. It was pretty laggy on Miracast capable devices as well when I tested it. I find it very deceptive when they say that it supports Airplay devices, when in actuality, it does not. In order for Airplay to work, you need a jailbroken iOS device. You'll be better off just paying a little more money and getting an Apple TV (around $99), which is what I'm going to do now. This product was a waste of money.

Does not work with MAC, I just checked Logitech site, and they only have Windows listed for this controller. It say if you OS is not listed, nothing is available for it. So that means it wont work! For MAC

Yes. All macs use the same remote. This one or the new silver style should both work

i have mine connected via dvi to hdmi. using a macbook first gen. the black is black.... is not as black as the actully tv.... but im not sure how much blacker it could be... its not gray or anything like that. the overscanning is nice if you have it adjusted to "just scan" it will do a very good job. and you wont have the black bars on both sides of the tv like you would if you used 16:9

I'm not a Mac owner, however it does work on my Apple TV. I' m guessing that if your Mac has the HDMI port, it will work. I hope this helps.

I have the newer high-end Mac Mini hooked up to my Samsung 56" TV. Works great. I wouldn't expect nearly the same experience with a Windows machine (I use both Windows and Mac at home). I have the Logitech DiNovo Edge keyboard with touchpad to control it, and the regular Apple remote can be replaced with any universal remote that supports it (such as Logitech Harmony). I can also use my iPod Touch with the "Snatch" app to control it. I use iTunes, DVD player, QuickTime, VLC, etc. with good results.

I can't speak specific to a Macbook Pro, but I am using it with a Windows laptop that has a miniport-HDMI cable and it works fine. I do realize that isn't a Mac, but just in case a Mac user doesn't speak up, thought I'd let you know a miniport-HDMI does work in at least some cases. Best of luck!

Mine didn't work at all, and I needed to pay for shipment back to the vendor. The vendor also grudgingly admitted to me that they have had similar experiences with this manufacturer, to which I asked, so why do you keep carrying this? If it worked at all, it should have worked with Apple TV with the connectors.

I have a 2011 15" macbook pro and all I had to do is plug the cord in to my computer and the hdmi port into the back of my tv...hope this help

Depends on what Mac you have. Macbook Pros have an HDMI port so this adapter will work with it, however Macbook Airs do not so you'd have to get a Thunderbolt-to-HDMI adapter first. At that point it might be better to find a Thunderbolt-to-VGA adapter instead.

The monitor works well on a Macbook Pro ---- HOWEVER, you will lose your ability to control the volume settings from your keyboard if you choose to use the built-in HDMI audio. If you know of any work-around for this, please let me know.

Yes it works fine with Mac. Just the application switching button doesn't work but not sure why you need that on a remote anyway.
