Q. if i plug it into a macbook air and a pc monitor will i be able to use my monitor as the laptop screen?
A. Hi Jack, thank you for your question. We believe that this will not work as the mac needs either a USB C or a thunderbolt connection to extend the monitor and won't work from just the USB port.
