Click to expand.While I'm not 100% certain, I'm confident MacOSX will recognize most if not all USB joy sticks. Where you lose out with Mac often is the stick manufacturer is to lazy to write programmable software for it, unless you are using X-Plane which includes a control interface which the Mac can use. Without programmable software, you just remap keys, in game by pressing the appropriate button. Just google 'Mac compatible joy stick' to see many options. If you have doubts call up the manufacturer.
How old is your stick? You may have an issue with a dead stick. I have used a stick in the last year but it was on my PC. I've got a collection of 3 sticks (10 years old, or maybe older) that I broke out to test with Elite Dangerous on my PC. Two were recognized by my PC and one was not, it's dead. All worked on the my Mac, last time I tried.
Some examples of the many out there::. Compatible with all versions of Windows: XP, Vista, 7, 8 and Mac OSX (programming software is PC compatible only). I use X-Plane with a Speedlink Black Widow joystick. It's not very good (for X-Plane, that is) and I really do need to look into something better, particularly as I want to play Elite Dangerous as well. The stick is far too sensitive and it's very difficult to control an aeroplane properly, especially a light aircraft. I fly in real life and use X-Plane for practicing ILS approaches in zero visibility etc but I find myself concentrating far too much on controlling the aeroplane as very tiny joystick inputs result in the plane going all over the place. Not sure if this is a joystick or X-Plane problem.

There's no OSX driver and the crude adjustments available in X-Plane just don't give enough adjustment. I'm thinking of splashing out on the Saitek X55 but it's a lot of money if it doesn't do what I want. I use X-Plane with a Speedlink Black Widow joystick.

Product Information. Powerful and precise Cyborg 3D Gold USB is an ultimate game controller with total adjustability for left- and right-handers of all sizes.
This controller has over 24 programmable functions. You will appreciate its cool and distinctive look. According to The Control Center, with the Cyborg Gold you get a huge array of button function, accurate full axis control and a sleek looking controller. Add to this the extensive function of the SGE software and the sticks customizable layout and you have a winner. More or less what I was looking for It looks good and operates acceptably well. The alignment is slightly off but that's not surprising for a used item and can be somewhat adjusted for. You cannot download Windows 7+ drivers from Saitek for this device (they only support it up to Windows XP) but Microsoft does include them in Windows so not a huge problem.
The ability to adjust the grip is useful for me as I'll be using it left handed but I can also appreciate the ability to adjust it to multiple hand sizes as well. Verified purchase: Yes Condition: Pre-owned.
