Does this product work with a MacBook Air? Does it connect to the "thunderbolt 2" for external displays?

Yes. Thunderbolt 2 uses the same connectors as the original Thunderbolt, so Thunderbolt 2 devices will be backwards compatible with Thunderbolt peripherals and vice versa. But a Thunderbolt device connected to a Thunderbolt 2 port will perform at the Thunderbolt speed of 10 Gbps. Thunderbolt is basically a mini displayport with an apple name, so it should work.

I use this with a macbook air as well and it works great. The only thing better would be a wireless option.

I have a MacBook Air with the most up to date software and mine works perfectly. I took a chance on this display screen and I'm glad I did. Never had any problems. Also you will need a converter for the screen to plug into your laptop. My converter is a DVI to mini display port covertor which I got at radio shack because I couldn't find one at any other store where I live.

The cable plugs into the Thunderbolt port on my MacBook Air on one side, and the other end plugs into the HDMI input on the TV. Hope this helps!

i plug it into my Macbook air, using a mini displayport to VGA adapter and a VGA chord. It works perfectly.

No, it only works with mini display port and thunderbolt. For that u would need a USB to HDMI cable.

No, I have a Macbook Air and the HDMI port is much smaller. This product will not fit. I bought this instead and it works very well:http://www.amazon.com/Neewer®-Displayport-ThunderBolt-Adapter-MacBook/dp/B007MYZ4QC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid;=1403980493&sr=8-3&keywords;=macbook+air+hdmi+adapter

Yes, it does. The thunderbolt drive works well with my wife's MacBook PRO with Retina display & Thunderbolt connections. Very fast.

I don't have a Macbook air, however it works fine with my iMac, and no issues with OSX.

The dock only ultimately provides one thunderbolt connection. So with my early 2011 macpro I still had only ability to have one additional monitor but I don't have an HDMI connector. Not sure what the Air has. Ultimately I bought a new MacBook Pro with two thunderbolt displays and now have two external monitors and the laptop display. Love it and it gave me an opportunity to upgrade.

It should also be noted that the driver for the Apple Thunderbolt display is not verified for Windows, so you will have to use the Intel Thunderbolt Controller software to connect the monitor

This will work with any display port whether it is onboard graphics or discrete graphics, and yes you could use it for an apple thunderbolt display.

Hopefully someone else with more knowledge of Macs and their Thunderbolt connection can answer. I'm not sure since I use this monitor with a Windows 7 Home Premium box with the supplied cable.

Should be fine. I use 2 of them on a 2012 Macbook air. 2-20 inch apple cinema DVI displays.Plug and play. (well, you do have to download a driver) If you're short on USB ports get a hub.I haven't found a better solution for the price. So far excellent performance.

It did work with my mac air. I have given it to my son to use with his MBP. So far there has been no complaint.

Mini Display and Thunderbolt are the same from what I understand - My Macbook Air has a thunderbolt and it works fine.

Did this work for you? I too have a 2013 MacAir. The Thunderbolt port is NOT the same size as a MiniDisplayPort on these newer Mac Airs. I see many MDP to HDMI cables on the market that say "Thunderbolt compatible," but it seems they are compatible only with an earlier (different size port) Thunderbolt.
