I buy this keyboard to use with my 3rd gen Macbook . I be able to use it right out of the box without any installation issue whatsoever ; although a popup notification appear at startup say that my os be unable to recognize the keyboard , I close the window and proceed to use the keyboard with no problem . most of the standard mac keyboard command be still available here , which be nice . I have not be able to make some of the keyboard 's own shortcut compatible with the Mac OS -lrb- such as the homepage , email , and chat function key -rrb- as well as the home , end and number lock key , but that be a trivial issue that do not get in the way of general usability . overall as a Mac user , I be please with this keyboard .
