SUMMARY

The Microsoft SideWinder 3D Pro for Macintosh joystick does not work on a Macintosh computer that uses only Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports, such as the Apple iMac.

MORE INFORMATION

Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) ports are not installed on Apple iMac computers or other recently released Macintosh computers. These Macintosh computers use USB ports instead of ADB ports. The SideWinder 3D Pro for Macintosh joystick uses an ADB connector and is not compatible with computers that use only USB ports.
