Thunderbolt has not changed. The adapter will work with any Thunderbolt connection.

I can't give a definite answer on the MacBook Air, but I've used it with my MacBook Pro Retina and it works perfectly. The only issue I've had with it was that it wasn't compatible with my external USB 3 card that I put in my Mac Tower. So if it's just for your Air, I'd say you're safe giving it a go. Hope that helps.

I am not sure about the Mac mini, but I have a newer Mac air and it works with an adapter you can buy at any apple store

Anastasia, Try some other USB device in the same USB port you are using this adopter. Coz in my Macbook Pro, I found one of my USB port is not working. Or try this in second USB port of your MacBook Air. and click on system preference go to network and see if it detects thunderbolt as device. May be it is not active there. Let me know if still is doesn't work.

I just got my MacBook Air in January, so I believe it's the latest model. It did NOT work with my computer. The vendor keeps trying to get me to take this feedback down, but I won't because it never worked from day one.

Yes, you can use this with a Mac Mini. It has HDMI, DVI, and 15 Pin VGA. So, it will work without any issues with just about any computer. The Mac Mini will have one of the three connectors above.

Yes, Thunderbolt and MiniDisplay use the same connector. Some more info here: http://www.cnet.com/news/confusing-mini-displayport-with-thunderbolt/

i plug it into my Macbook air, using a mini displayport to VGA adapter and a VGA chord. It works perfectly.

Well, on my Mac Mini, I have another Thunderbolt cable and an HDMI cable. The extra curved part of the cable shroud they added makes it impossible to plug it in - it either jams against the HDMI cable or against the other Thunderbolt cable. So couldn't even try it out. This may only apply to the Mac Mini, and only if you have both of the other cables plugged in.

Yes - you will just need a DisplayPort to Mini-DisplayPort cable. If it is a recent MacBook Air, the Thunderbolt port is the same size as a Mini-Displayport connector and is backwards compatible. When connected via DisplayPort, if you set your sound output on the MacBook Air to the monitor and set the Monitor sound input to DisplayPort then the DisplayPort cable will carry both the video and audio over the single cable. You would then just need to connect a USB cable from the MacBook Air to the monitor if you want to use the USB Hub. Note, however, that since this monitor is not a Thunderbolt monitor, you will not have Thunderbolt capabilities (such as daisy-chaining thunderbolt devices) - don't think you were looking to do that anyway, but something to be aware of if you were looking for that functionality.

Yes, it works great with my 2012 (Core i7 version) Mac Mini. You will need a Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable/adapter to get maximum performance. This one works great for me: Cable Matters Gold Plated Mini DisplayPort (Thunderbolt Port Compatible) to DisplayPort Cable in White 6 Feet - 4K Resolution Ready

Yes, it works perfectly with my Mac Air, so there should be no problem for other Macs...(though I needed a port extension because the drive needs two ports)I hope I helped!

Yes this monitor is compatible with most MACs. For example, the Macbook Air uses a Mini DisplyaPort(Thunderbolt) and the Ultrasharp supports DisplayPort, VGA and DVI-D, so any Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort, VGA, or DVI-D adapter will work. You will just need to buy the appropriate conversion adapter, which depends on your MAC video DVI input for example, to plug into either the DisplayPort (best), DVI-D (good) or the VGA port (worst) of the monitor.

I've used this with the 13" 2013 Macbook Air with OS X 10.9 Mavericks with no problems. Now I'm on the public beta 2 of OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) also with no problems. My MBA is connected via thunderbolt to a 24" 1080p monitor AND this adapter (USB3 &gt; Etekcity adapter &gt; HDMI attachment &gt; TV). It is obviously quite a bit delayed response time but I only use it for video playback (which works fine). The only difference between the 2013 and 2014 models of macbook airs are the minor processor speed bump; the processors are otherwise the same.

Yes, newer MacBook Airs have the same Mini DisplayPort / Thunderbolt port as MacBook Pros. Check for your specific model to make sure you have a Mini DisplayPort. I use this adapter with my 2011 MacBook Air.

yes, the mini displayport is Thunderbolt compatible. You only get the video out portion, but it is how I use my large Dell monitor to my Mac.
