Does it work with a macbook pro 15-inch Mid 2010? a vertical line of keys including spacebar don't work.

No. The power button contact will not line up with the actual face button. And I think the information cable will not reach the motherboard input. I'm not completely sure about the second one.

Yes it does. I replaced mine over a month ago. I have me Mid 2010 15 inch one.

Hi Kara, We've had many customers install the Keys For Macbook Pro on their MacBook Air with no problem. Thanks!

I don't use a mac so I don't know for sure. But it's a standard USB keyboard so, if macs have USB ports, I don't know why it wouldn't. The little button keys on the top (volume up and down, etc.) might not work as expected, I suppose.

It doesnt matter whether its retina or not. Retina is screen not keyboard. If its a mackbook pro it should work! Glad to be of help :]

Kent...UPDATE to my Post under C. Watts - I was able to reinstall the keyboard and get the F5 key to work. While the quality of materials is lower on the current generation of keyboards, mine is working fine and the quality is acceptable. As far as spacebar issues and such, I think it's just a break-in period you have to go through. And truthfully, this is the best layout of a keyboard I've ever used. I use it every day, all day long and just would not want to be without the split design.

It works with my Macbook Pro. I just plug into the HDMI interface on my Mac and into the keyboard and it worked right out of the box.

I personally removed it from my desk top pc and plugged it into my MacBook PRO 2010 (OSX 10.8.4). The MBP saw the mouse as a external keyboard and requested a driver. I checked and found no support for a Mac (mouse) driver. So this mouse did not work for me with a MAC. If one of the others who replied could explain how they tested and made it work, that would be more helpful.

@ should work fine on a Mac. Might be a faulty unit. Windows key corresponds to the Cmd key on Mac keyboards.

Hi, Luiz,Indeed! I just bought a Mac Mini to serve as a stand alone box for my Protools HD rig, and I plugged this keyboard into the USB 3.0 port and it works like a champion. FYI...in situations where you're not sure if the USB is compatible, it's useful to remember that you can plug a lower number USB (2.0 for example) into a higher USB (3.0), but you can't go the other way. Otherwise, you're good to go here. Enjoy the extended keyboard with the two extra USB ports on the sides in your new Mac. Cheers!

Janet, it is a USB connection, will work PC, LINUX or MAC. I assume you have a USB keyboard already on the MAC, if so it will work. They keyboard makes a world of difference for low vision users. Again, if your existing keyboard is USB it should work.

I think that depends on where your Macbook malfunctions. If the input system and USB ports function well then this keyboard will work. If the input part is down, then it wont work.I suggest you borrow your friend's USB keyboard and try it on your mac, and then decide whether buy this item or not. Hope it helps.

Sorry, it only works with USB wired keyboards and it doesn't work with Macs at all.

As a USB keyboard, it should be able to work well with all newer versions of the apple computer OS X:10 operating system. What you have to watch out for is using a newer keyboard on an older operating system or if Apple elects to change from USB to say Thunderbolt for their future keyboard connections.

I have the same keyboard and it does not work with the Apple keyboard. When I originally bought the cover I had a windows based desktop computer.

It has a USB connection. I run it on OSX 10.6. I am guessing it will work with 10.4. It's a good alternative to the Mac keyboard (a lot less money). While it doesn't have the Eject button that the Mac keyboard has, you can eject a disk by simply hitting Command E.

We use ours with the Mac mini. One of the keys sticks so it's kind of cheap but it does the job.

It is a Mac-layout, yes. It works with any version of Mac OS that is compatible with USB keyboards. All versions of OS X since 2001 support USB keyboards.
