tl;dr
Works great with new Hackintosh's
Great Range
Buy it!
when I plugged the dongle in initially the device manager said I had no drivers for it
however, using Windows 10, I plugged the dongle in, went to "Windows Update", clicked "View optional updates", expanded "Driver updates", and selected the Bluetooth option that was there
worked fine after that
cheers
First, when I plug this dongle into USB port ALL THE WAY(like anyone would plug in any USB device all the time), it won't power up. This dongle has a blue LED light indicating that it's turned on, but if I plug this thing into any USB port on my computer, it won't power up. I have to pull it out probably about 1mm to get it worked. I'm assuming that it's not the best of best in build quality category.
Second, this could be critical to some. So I got my package and like how I normally would, I started to cut the packaging(not the shipping box, the plastic container that keeps the items, documents, and etc..) and what do I know, I just cut through the installation CD. I was like, you cut this packaging wrong, then you're screwed? Ok...? then I thought oh no biggie I can just go to the website and download the driver from there. Right? Nope. Official website of this product does not have download page for drivers. I thought I was really screwed but I somehow figured it out....
If you don't have an optical drive or threw away the CD or destroyed it like I did, try this method. If you connect this to your Windows 7 PC(I don't know about Windows 8, but I would assume it should work since the W8 has much more drivers) it will say that it can't find the driver and it can't be installed. Click on that popup then some box with installing new hardware failed, no driver found with some red signs. In that box, there should be an option that says something like "search in windows update" . Click on that, then voila, it should be working.
Now I say this because I find many people turn off their automatic updates or their computer doesn't search in windows update automatically when the driver is not found.
Overall, dongle is working perfectly, but I am giving it 4 stars because of the hassle I had to go through and some build quality issue.
So I switched back to this dongle. The dongle is on the top of my desktop unit whereas of course the card was inside the unit with the glass side on the box. The dongle appears to have much better range for whatever reason and now I’m not have any problems with drop out.I’m still using the wireless card though it’s primarily just for airdrop on the Mac side of things. The box itself is plugged in with ethernet cable so I don’t use Wi-Fi for Internet connection.
I dual boot this machine to windows 7 and I have been unable to successfully pair the same earbuds in windows, even after many attempts. I think this is just a function of how terrible a product Windows is and not a reflection on this adapter, but keep this in mind if you want to use these in Windows for some reason.

You must also make sure you have the devices you are Airdropping between or using Handoff between signed in to the same Apple ID and on the same WiFi network ... but that's an Apple thing and not related to this particular piece of hardware.
Please don't ask me for technical support - just Google for Mac Continuity Activation Tool and follow the instructions, together with Apple's instructions for enabling and using the Airdrop and Handoff features.
La chiavetta è letteralmente Plug & Play su macOS (provato su high Sierra). Bisognerà però recarsi nel menu Condivisione (nelle Preferenze di sistema) e spuntare la voce "condivisione bluetooth" per usufruire di tutte le sue potenzialità.
Provato anche su Windows 10 e funziona alla grande! I driver vengono scaricati in automatico (in confezione è comunque presente il cd con i driver da installare).
Durante il funzionamento emette una lieve e debole lucina blu, che a parer mio non infastidisce ed allo stesso tempo comunica il funzionamento del dongle.
J'ai donc recherché une solution, et finit par me décider sur cette clé USB Bluetooth afin d'augmenter le signal Bluetooth de mon MacPro.
Exercice parfaitement réussi: ma souris Magic Mouse n'a pas plus du tout de comportement ératique !!
