Does it work on a MacBookPro? I called Madcatz and they said NO. Do you need to use Parallels so Windows can be installed?

I didn't still install my Saitek. I still need to acquire a better computer. I have information that it is excellent.

Not sure about MBP, however I do have Win 7 with FSX installed on my Early 2013 iMac via bootcamp. Everything works great.

Yes. It is versatile with Windows OS, but will not work without using Parallels or some other compiler with Apple.

Sorry, I have a Mac and they state that it only works with Windows. Hope someone else can help.

It is not compatible. I checked the back of the box and it specifies Windows, and says nothing about Mac.

No Mac support without boot camp and/or parallels. I have run it using boot camp with no problems at all.

One of the reviews claimed that there were unofficial Mac drivers that worked well. But I don't know from personal experience. Your best bet would probably be to Google it.

I do not recommend it for Mac. Nothing but headaches. If I have to use the Mac I run wmware win 7 and it is not as reliable.

I use a PC with Windows 8.1 via USB. I have a Mac Pro, but abandoned it. I am a Windows guy. Please let me know what you find out. I may resurrect my Mac Pro at some point.

I'm going to go the local Dell shop here in Nepal to test on a Mac (MBA 2013). It seems to me that if you are running either Parallels Desktop 9 or VMWare latest, in theory, it should work no? I would like to have a touch screen for my WIN 8.1 Pro images that I run on macs all the time (i.e. I always have that fullscreen on an external monitor anyway). Anyone else try this yet?

No. You need windows 7 and natively installed. I tried to update it with a virtualized system (Parallels) on my MAC and it didn't work, I had to barrow a computer. But is quick...

You can run Publisher on MAC as well as other window based programs with either of two different methods. You can bootcamp your MAC and run Windows on a portion of your hard drive, but you must boot to either the MAC OS or Windows side. THE EASIEST is to install the Parallels for MAC cost about $79.00. You then install your windows operating systems, and then you can run any Windows program side by side with your MAC programs. I love MAC but had 2 Windows programs I had to use WORKS GREAT!!

Yeah as a matter of fact I upgraded to Parallels 9 and it also works with Mavericks. Here's a link form Parallels forums. http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?292009-Running-Parallels-8-on-OSX-Mavericks-possible

The software works with Windows XP, 7 and 8. It does not work natively with a Mac. If you use Parallels or another VM software on your Mac, it will work fine. I am running an iMac with OS 10.10.x and Windows 7 Pro 64-bit in Parallels. The software works fine. It is a little clunky, and you will definitely want to export to Excel if you want to do any manipulation of the data.

Windows 7 was what I am using it on. I have used on a an Android netbook, Dell Desktop, and a Dell netbook. Have not bought a Macbook yet. I love it.

It comes with a driver CD that contains only Windows drivers, and I could not find any Mac drivers. A MacBook Pro does not recognize it,so I am pretty sure that they don't support Mac OS

Yes it does. I have it connected to my Mac Min with Mountain Lioni with Parallels 8 to run Windows XP and it it supported by both.

YES, and it "jams" just as good! I'm currently running Win 8.1 Pro with the complete MS Office Suite on a MAC OS X laptop. But, I'm running Win 8.1 in a Virtual Machine space using Parallels Desktop 10. Parallels will let you run dual OS along with sharing resources from the MAC. In other words the MAC is really running Win 8.1 as a "guest OS" in a sense. But, I found Parallels Desktop to be VERY SOLID and STABLE product and simple to setup and use. I ran both versions 9 and 10, as 10 is a recent upgrade. However, Parallels will cost you between $60 and $100. I bought the $60 product, which includes support for remote access from a MAC OS X laptop, an iPad, or a mobile iPone. I use Access from my mobile 5s iPhone with a high degree of success to run the laptop when it's not with me. But, BassJump 2 does work very good even under Windows! Some MAC users run Winn 8.1 using Bootcamp as a stand-alone OS. I do not have any experience with this environment. But, Parallels let's you run Win 8.1 at the same time OS X is running as a dual OS environment, and only uses about 1Gb hard disk to install and run Win 8.1. Parallels will also allow you to adjust disk and memory resources. But, I find both to be very substantial. One more note, this product does fill the "void" in sound, but is best used if placed directly behind the flip lid of your laptop and will deliver enough sound just to entrain 1 person. Namely, you. If you want to entertain 3 or more, I would advise getting an external Bluetooth sound system for that. But, remember that this solution uses it's own power source, whereas the BassJump 2 pulls power direct from the laptop via a USB port. Good luck with your choice!
