How does this work on a non-retina macbook pro? I have a 2010 MBP but will be updating soon. In the meantime, how does this handle on old MBPs?

While I don't have the older laptop as you describe, it should work well enough. Be sure to hold onto the extra adhesive strips that come in the package. Ideally...wear nitrile gloves when handling the screen since smudges on the monitor-facing side could become annoying. Given the higher pixel density of the retina display - you should not experience moire (the strange "wavy" optical effect caused by very small patterns) on the older screen.

Dear Jim, I bought 2 Data Doubler, one for my Macbook Pro 13" is 2011, and it has worked, and the other for a friend that has a Macbook Pro 15" 2010 and also worked perfectly, the Data Doubler comes with the proper connectors, best regards

I use it for my Macbook pro, as I selected Mac cable to connect with it, It works perfectly with me. I can transfer a lot of data in a short time. I know that this device is compatible with Mac and Windows but I prefer it with Mac because it has Time Machine Software to backup your data for double protection of data loss, this feature available only for Mac and supported to all Apple products. For further information contact their support team at www.g-technology.com. Thanks for contacting me and I hope this helped you. Regards.

I am running it just fine on 10.8.4 on a 2-3 year old Mac Book. I just downloaded the software from the website and it popped right up. Been very happy with it so far. I have been running at the max resolution (1920x1080) with no problem. I did a lot of research before buying, here's my advice, this was the best USB 2.0 device I could find and the price is great BUT if you have a computer with USB 3.0 I would look at USB 3.0 devices. Hope that helps.

Hello,Yes it does work on my company's MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. However IT did not commit to support it so I use it at my own risk. And I have to say that the second screen (the one attached through the adapter) does not respond as fast as the first screen. When I drag or move windows there is a lot of flickering and a little bit of lag. But since I only use it to have more open windows and do not need to run or edit video, animations, etc., it works fine for me.

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 don't think this works with your MBP retina, because this is a replacement of Magsafe, not Magsafe 2. If you already have or will buy a MagSafe to MagSafe 2 Converter, you can use this with your MBP retina.

Hi? Does it work for the retina macbook pro now? Is there any adapter available?

Will this work in non-Mac systems? "If memory characteristics in terms of voltage and speed is equal sharing of data is equal to or below what you require your system can work. I have installed it on a mac mini and it works perfectly

It works on my daughter's MacBook Pro. She always has the latest updates for her OS.

I have one and it works with my MacBook Pro using OSV 10.8. There are no special drivers to install, simply a USB ply-in, so I think it will have no problem working on OSX 10.9 (Mavericks) as well.

I use a Macbook Pro (Late 2011) running Mavericks. This pointer works just fine. For whatever reason, Logitech does not support Mac, but here's what really matters: this pointer functions like a keyboard. As soon as you plug the USB dongle (hidden nicely in the butt of the pointer housing) into your Mac, your computer will recognize it as a keyboard, but not which specific keyboard. You will be prompted to press a key on your "keyboard". This may seem confusing because there really isn't a keyboard. Simply press a few of the buttons on the pointer and your mac will give up and admit it has no idea what kind of keyboard you're using. It will then prompt you to determine which kind of keyboard you're using (ANSI, ISO, etc.). I selected ANSI, but it really doesn't matter. As soon as you pick something, your pointer will begin to function as it should!

I have a MacBook Pro mid-2010 version, also upgraded to mavericks. I bought and installed this memory end of December. No problems at all, works great, huge improvement in speed. Even though official manual says it can only handle 4gb don't believe it. I also switched out hard drive for a SSD which made an even bigger difference in overall speed than the memory.

This should work just fine. I use it with a 2007 MacBook...never done an update and it works well. Its also fast transfers. Hope it works well for you.

Thanks for your reply... do you know of anything that would work on the macbook pro? Please let me know if you do, and I really appreciate it!

Good question. I just recently bought a MacBook Pro and honestly it didn't dawn on me to try it. I'll test it out and let you know.

"Hi, I've installed this drive in my late 2010 MacBook Pro and it worked without problems. I don't know your drive, but according to this page: http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=HTS545025B9SA02-NDW-R it seems that it is a SATA drive. Since all SSD drives are SATA you should not have any problem at all by replacing it. Now, since your MacBook is 2009, the drive won't be able to deliver more than 1.5 Gbps or 3.0 Gbps ( it is capable of delivering 6.0 Gbps in a faster system such a Core I5 or Core I7) But don't worry, your laptop will be way faster than it is now. Should you have more questions, please contact me via e-mail: rrllamas@gmail.com"
