Yes. I use this one with my laptop and it works with the mic: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D6NPH88/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

this mic does not work on MacBooks, your next option for 3.5mm jack mics is Movo PM10 Deluxe Lavalier Lapel Clip-on Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone for Apple iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch & Android Smartphones

Yes. I use this one with my laptop and it works with the mic: D & K Exclusives® PC Headset to 3.5mm Smartphone Adapter: Convert Dual 3.5mm to 3.5mm, PC Computer Headset to iPhone, Blackberry, Droid, Palm, Samsung, LG, HTC

I would have to agree with the previous answers non expandable does not support external mics

Customer Service told me that on a MAC, one needs to have garageband or quicktime. If you are going to buy a digital microphone, you do not need interface software. Hope that helps!

There is a built in condenser mic as well as a 3.5mm jack for an external mic if you wish to use that instead. From the manual: "You can also use commercially available microphones. Connect the external microphone to the MIC terminal. Use commercially available condenser microphones with their own power supply. You can connect almost any stereo microphone with a 3.5mm plug but audio levels may vary."

I have a 2013 Macbook Air (mavericks) and it does NOT recognize the mic part. Headphone works great. Curious if other answers are theoretical or it works for them.

We have not connected a microphone, but this cable simply makes three iPad headphone ports where there was just one. It does NOT split out the left audio, right audio & microphone, just duplicates them. You maybe able to modify the cord to make one female jack with wire connected to mic only, and with its stereo audio not connected to anything. This could allow other jacks to be used for headset

One thing I remembered should work to, is using a splitter on the two mics if they have the headphone size plug that way both mics can be used under the mic volume control.

No, not that I see in the online manual, plus I don't see connectivity on the camera for an external mike.http://pdf.crse.com/manuals/4424086131/EN/contents/02/index.html

I have not used this mic with FaceTime. I have used it mostly with Noteability app which it works great with. I have used it with the video app so I don't know why it wouldn't work with FaceTime. I have not used it with a splitter.

You would probably need a splitter that separates audio and microphone but they're cheap little cables.

Kind of a hard question but you could find a Microphone with a 3.5 ml input and get a splitter. I think it would work

The short answer is actually no. The problem is that all modern Macs (since 2012 or 2013) use an integrated 3.5mm jack for both the output and input (mic). So if you want to use the mic with a Mac, you will need to purchase a USB converter.

If you're asking, can you use this mic with Skype and FaceTime, I haven't tried that but it should work like any other audio input device that you would connect to the phone. The other person should be able to hear you OK, but because you have a device plugged into the phones headphone jack (the mini-mic) the iPhone thinks this is a external headset and turns off the phones speaker. After I did the test video mentioned in my review I had to unplug the mini-mic to be able to hear the audio during playback.

This does *not* work with a MacBook Pro. I ordered one for my Mac without realizing the input jack on the laptop is line-level. The mic-level output is insufficient meaning no sound can be heard when speaking (although the headset *can* be used for listening). The Mac requires a USB or Bluetooth headset.

I had two Windows machines to test this with. An ASUS 1A53E and a Sony VAIO VPCSB. On the ASUS, there are two separate jacks, one for headphones and one for a microphone. So clearly with that machine you would need an adapter of some kind if it's even possible. The VAIO only has the one jack, but it does not appear to recognize the presence of a microphone.On all of my Apple MacBooks, it just works - the microphone is recognized and used by the Apple Hardware. There may be Windows machines that recognize this headset, but neither of the ones I had on hand did.

Yes and no. First, this headset is not USB; you would be better off with a headset that connects via USB. This headset has one jack for the microphone and one jack for the the speakers (ears); your Macbook has only one jack for listening (speakers for the ears), but your Macbook has no jack for the microphone. Logitech has other models that are USB. Recommend getting a USB headset.

Haven't tried it, myself, but found 2 URLs that say Mac compatible.(1) http://www.dictationwarehouse.com/CM1000USBdetail.asp(2) http://www.tvps.com/Products/SoundTech-CM-1000-35-mm-Omni-directional-Conference-Microphone---New__VE-CM-1000.aspx?gclid=CLC_i_DKjcICFaVDMgodG2sANQ
