Does this work with OSX Mavericks? Is there a work around to get the thumb buttons to work?

Yes. Actually Justin, the question asker, has the answer in his Review. Out of the box the Back and Forward mouse buttons don't work, but if you use BetterTouchTool, you can add custom key bindings to those buttons and map them to any action (including Back and Forward) you want!You can download it here: http://www.boastr.net/ The assigned actions you want are 3F Swipe Left (Page Back) and 3F Swipe Right (Page Forward) thats under "Predefined Actions" -> "Mimicking standard gestures"

I am running Mavericks on my iMac and it works great. I just upgraded to Print Shop 3 and it works even better.

It works (OS X 10.10.4), just move the switch to direct (D on bottom). Probably usability depends on game itself as well...

Yes, works fine on the Mavericks distro. I hate it when people say something without trying. your answers are not helpful!

The Genius 2.4 GHz wireless finger mouse is mostly compatible with Mac OS. The "Page" button does not work. Was told by Genius they were working on this bug. Not related to the question asked but worth noting is that the "battery low" indicator doesn't work and that the battery tends to run down quickly if one leaves there thumb on the sensor pad too much of or too long of a/the time. This said, one can get a longer charger cable than what comes with the mouse, I bought a 1-ft (12-inch) cable on line, to operate the mouse while charging.

Works just fine with my MacBook Pro and Mavericks. The only thing that got me for a while is that moving the mouse does not wake it from sleep. But hitting any button (including the clear button at top next to the scroll wheel) does wake it and reconnects (quickly). The button click gets registered at the OS though.

Those buttons don't work on my Mac. Instead, I use the scroll wheel which works well

I'm running OS X Mavericks and it works perfect. I did install Moom as well.

I finally got it to work with Powerpoint for Mac 2011 and 2008 on Maverick (OSX 10.9) by remapping the forward/backward keys using an app called KeyRemap4MacBook. See my review.

Yeah i can confirm that it worked when i bought it. Though I didnt play anything with it. Just tasted to see if It responded to mac. Im not to big on Mac but when i tried it out it worked fine. The only issue you may run into, is based on the games you play that aren't fully supported. Some buttons may not be mappable, or the rumble function doesn't work. I actually bought this controller a few years ago, so not sure if its still supported. I now use a 360 controller. Hope that helps.

I've not seen one. I have had to reinstall the software a couple of time but the device works and am on the Mavericks OS for Mac

I have tried it on my Macbook. The main gestures work: left click, right click, scroll up and down, three finger slide for page forward or backward. Right now, I am using it on my computer at work. This computer has windows 7. There a lot of gestures work, too. Best part is, you don't have to install a special driver. It works right out of the box an an Apple computer as well as on a Windows 7 PC.

Mac OSX version 10.7.5 is what I have and it works perfectly. Phone Matias Tactile Pro for help if you need it.

I've been working with the pointer with OSX 9.5 with no problem at all. Hope it helps.

I sent mine back - upon consultation with the Iris people they seem to have no intention of making a Mac version. Their marketing needs to make it more clear that this mouse is not usable with Macs.
