***NOT MAC COMPATIBLE***

This monitor looked great...In the reviews.

I recently purchased this monitor for my 2010 macbook pro. To my amazement and astonishment, it was NOT MAC COMPATIBLE. It was difficult to believe that this extra monitor could not connect to a mac. Since that was the case, I searched the internet high and low and with a horrible BenQ website, I was unsuccessful in finding a driver that could potentially solve my problem.

My new solution to solving this problem is printing out the return slip, slapping it on the box, and sending the giant plastic slab back to HQ where a customer with a PC can happily use it to his or her liking.

I hope this review helped you stay clear of this product if you were hoping to purchase an extra monitor for your mac. As for the PC users, this looks like a great monitor...However I cannot give an honest review since I do not own a PC.

Cheers!

Bought this printer to use with a Mac. Product description says it's Mac compatible. Printer arrived with a driver CD for Windows but not Mac. Dell website shows a Mac driver but the link is broken.

When I used the "chat" function with customer support they asked for my email and phone number twice, then told me "because you purchased this online, you will need to fill out an ownership transfer form."

After I told the agent I was interested in drivers for both 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and 10.7 (Lion), the agent replied:"The Lion OS is not supported at this time, however there is an update through the MAC software update from Lexmark for generic drivers for the Lion OS. For the Snow Leopard OS, the website is currently being updated I will be happy to get your email and send you the link once the website is fully updated."

After a few more back and forths during which I was asked for my email address yet again, the rep told me she would email me the driver link once it became available. I'm not holding my breath.

Big waste of time.

If I could enter a 0 for number of stars I would do so.

Update

I badgered Dell on Twitter and they got in touch with me and provided a link to a working driver. I think the issue is that someone else makes this printer for them and they got their wires crossed. The machine is now working fine and I've upgraded my review from 1 star to 3.

If you own a Mac, don't buy this cam! You will have to download a third party viewer (e.g., VLC) and convert the AVI movie file. You will lose GPS data and the sound is inaudible. The picture is of very good quality. I'm thinking about buying the GoPro, though it's of course more expensive. I returned this cam the next day.

even though the mac will recognized the camera and allow you to use it, the open source usb driver that the mac utilizes renders the camera pretty much useless.  The mic sounds great, but the frame rate on a mac tower is so low it's not functional. The color is terrible.  I mean it's super grainy and not even close to a representation of reality.

I do like that the camera tucks away. to bad it's a fail on a mac. I've spoken to blue customer service.  they had no fix for me.

I bought this expecting it to be simple and straight forward. I go to download the program from the website and they do not support mac software. I either buy a windows computer for this to work or i return it.. Still waiting for customer service to get back to me...

Do NOT buy this if you have a MAC.  The drivers won't work and it will not be recognized by your computer.

It doesn't work on a Mac and that is not disclosed in the product description. If I had read the reviews first I might have noticed that fact. But it should have been highlighted in the product description. How inconsiderate.

The website description of this camera indicates that it is both Windows and Mac compatible.  The outside of the box says the same.  The poorly written instructions make no reference on how to install or download the software for use with a Mac computer.  The system requirements description on the scarce one page instructions contradicts what the box says outside and what the website description says because it makes no reference of the camera being Mac compatible.  The software comes in a mini disc which cannot be inserted in the drive of any Mac computer.  When I attempted to contact the manufacturer to see if the software could be downloaded I was stunned to realize neither the box nor the one page instruction sheet say who makes this camera, where it is made nor does it have a website or phone number.  The box is generic and all it says is "USB WIRE CAMERA" which is also the heading of the instruction sheet.  After borrowing an external DVD drive I was finally able to copy the software on the disc onto my Mac.  That was a waste of time and useless step because the only one document in the mini disc is an ".EXE" file which does not work on a Mac.  That file is called "AMCAP.EXE". AMCAP - whatever that stands for, is the only clue you will find as far as a name of a manufacturer or possibly the acronym of either the distributor or manufacturer.  With no name, no address, no phone number, no website and no clue as to who to contact I encourage anyone wanting to play "Where is Waldo" to buy this camera; if you only have access to a Mac this is a guaranteed challenge and a lost game.

The camera may be a good camera and possibly work in a Windows operating system but brace yourself if you need support or have a question.  I give this product two stars because of the manufacturer's poorly written instructions, poor packing design for using a box with no name, not divulging the country where it was manufactured and for their misleading and deceptive advertising saying that the camera is Mac compatible, when they provide no resources, instructions or software for a Mac.

TERRIBLE

Cant print on Mac. It is a well known problem  but Turbo Tax won't fix it. If you have a mac don't buy this. Printing or getting pdf of your return doesn't work. (all sorts of nonsense but simply doesn't work).

Do not buy if you have a macbook pro 13" like I do. It is Not compatible with mac and you'll have to return it or give it away.

I bought this to install on my 4 month old Mac, running the latest operating system, OS X, 10.9.4.  The info clearly states that it will run on a Mac and there is even a video review here on Amazon, that was done on one.  It is true that the reviewer says it is not optimal for the Mac, and the buttons on the front of the machine would not work for Mac, but it did scan for him.  Well it wouldn't work on mine.  I couldn't even get it to install.  I uninstalled, emptied the trash, rebooted, and reinstalled it 6 times and each time, on attempting to bring it up, it crashed.  I finally called Epson and they were amazingly unhelpful.  He had me check several things, change the USB cable, finally determined that my Mac could not see the scanner, told me that I had done all the other things he would have used for troubleshooting, and suggested that I find another computer to install it on, preferably a Windows machine!  I finally ended up installing it on a Windows laptop - certainly not my first choice but apparently my only one.  I have not had a chance to fully test it on this new machine, since I wasted 2 days in trying to get it to install on a Mac, but it appears to work okay on the Windows laptop.  I am giving it only 3 stars, however, because it does not work as advertised.  I am very disappointed as this configuration does not meet our needs nearly as well as it would have if we could have installed it on my Mac.

IF YOU HAVE A MAC DO NOT BUY! It was a  waste of time and money trying to get this game to work. Just loo at all of the forums on this game not working with macs and even windows. The service people take way too long. Do yourself a favor and don't buy it. Origin/EA is selling faulty games to people just to make a profit.

DO NOT BUY if you have a MAC! This printer is really not made to work on a MAC Operating System! I have tried for hours to make it not cut off the top of the page when printing from the Internet and downloaded multiple drivers! Nothing will fix it! Save your money and buy any other printer than this one! I have wasted too many hours trying to make it work! It was so horrible I just put my old printer back! I am in the process of returning this one!

Do not buy this product. It does not support Mac OS High Sierra and later. Targus Audio also does not communicate or provide support to Customers. Myself and many other Mac OS customers have been reaching out to Targus Audio for months to fix this. You can simply check there Facebook, Twitter and Website page to see the months of request and feedback from customers on this simple problem. You will not get extended mode. The only mode it goes into is clone mode, meaning what you currently see on your laptop will be display on the projected monitors, the quality is extremely bad, and you will have to drop the quality to be compatible with the device. Also, today, the volume using the Targus Audio is no longer working, So it has no Audio, and no extended mode. The device Is worthless if you have an Apple Macbook. Do not waste your time trying to reach them because they will not respond to you.

This printer does NOT play well with Mac!  Although it advertises wireless connectivity, none of the wireless setup instructions I've found & followed work (and I'm not a newbie).  I seem to've gotten it to connect for printing by accident. It prints okay, though it takes [forever] to actually get started.
I've been UNABLE to successfully get it to scan. It won't scan from its control panel, and when it does finally scan through a very cumbersome interface on my Mac, it does not recognize print material nor does it scan in a decent resolution as JPEG.
Don't be fooled!
