I have a new MacBook Pro and it seems to have a peg in the middle of the port that would not allow this to work. Is that correct? Will it work?

It will work with the non-retina macbook pros that released 2012 and are still in sale as of 2014, will not work with retina display macbook pros

I am sure it will because you are using a USB connection. But, doesn't the MacBook Pro have an Ethernet jack? If so, you don't need this.

Does your MacBook Pro have a Dual Link DVI port? If it does, then yes, it should work.

I have a MacBook Pro, it works but the connection sometimes goes in and out if I just slightly move my computer.

Although the mini-port cable looks like a thunderbolt, alas, it is not. I do not think it will work, but a quick call to apple support will get you your answer.

No, it's the old connection. You will have to purchase the adapter to the new MacBook Pro

I have an actual MacBook (with Macericks) and it works just fine. It is USB so it would see it the same way. In fact it uses the same vendor/product id as my apple supplied onboard device that I actually have to work around. I suspect you would not have this issue (due to lack of original hardware).

It didn't work with my older MacBook Pro laptop. Got an error message something like "device using too much power through USB" and it was bypassed. Might work on newer Macs.

It doesn't go into any of the data ports. On most laptops, including most Macs, there is a small oval shaped hole, about 5mm or so long, and about 1mm high. It goes in there. If you don't have a hole like that, this won't fit.

Worked with my 2012 MacBook pro. The caveat is that I had to use the included PS/2 -&gt; USB adapter, whereas other adapters didn't work.

I use it with my MacBook Pro OSX Mavericks - works great. Not USB 3, that would be better.

I couldn't get it to connect to my late 2013 MacBook Pro. It did connect to my iPhone and iPad, so the unit was working.

No. This a thunderbolt connection which is used on new macs. You should probably look for a lightning connector.

I know they don't officially support Macs but if i plugged it in using the usb cable would it recognize it or no. It's kind of a deal breaker for me so i was wondering if anyone had any info.Thanks!

The USB connection will work in the Macbook Pro. To make sure it works, go under System Preferences, Sound and then the Input tab to make sure it is being used.

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!

works with my Macbook Pro 2010 13". I can't imagine it'd not work with other macs.
