        We have been experiencing issues as well with the Plugable ud-3900 on the beta OSX 10.11. Our users have reporting no video output as well as limited other basic functionality of the product since their beta upgrades. With the release of OSX 10.11 on our doorstep we are getting concerned that we will have multiple systems that can no longer use their docking solutions. Can someone provide an update on the support path to see an updated displaylink driver for OSX?

        Upgraded to 10.11 today - Displaylink crashes my machine (total reboot without warning) about once an hour... any news on new version?

        The most recent driver release seems to work on the GM build of 10.11. A little odd sometimes, seems to "hang" occasionally and sometimes has some vertical lines, but overall it works for an infrequently used display.

        What's the ETA on the pre-release driver? I specifically bought a DisplayLink tech product because of OS X support but it is horribly broken.

        Agreed. Enough is enough. Have had to return both external portable USB 3.0 monitors I've tried in the last few weeks that are "DisplayLink Mac OSX compatible" but yet neither work on my Macbook Pro 13 Retina - neither work with DL2.4 - neither work using an extra external USB 3.0 powered hub - neither work after over 10 hours of restarts, installs, uninstalls, forum searches, hacks. Understood if Apple is the problem here - then stop promoting your ability to make devices work - thats ok - instead of buying these products and now feeling like I want nothing to do with DisplayLink products, services or technology I would have avoided the purchases and see have a positive brand relationship with you.

        Remove osx compatibility. The known issues make it unusable. I'm having safari and firefox crashes unless i configure my screens in a way I don't want. My 3d apps have lag. Don't get me wrong it works for some apps but the fact I had to spend all evening messing around to get 'some' things working is not good.

        I've been using a Mac for years now, I've seen different hardware and I've seen different software. From what I've seen, I've grown accustomed to seemingly good quality products. But what I've seen from DisplayLink ever since the DL3xxx products came out was simply in another league. It really stands out compared to other products I've seen. And I don't mean to pull DisplayLink down in general, but seriously, other companies are doing a lot better job in supporting hardware with proper drivers.

        Ever since the first Dl3xxx chips were available I've been waiting to use it and until this day, I haven't had the same experience as the Windows platform has seen for DisplayLink. All you guys (Apple including!) is point to "the other" and say "it's their issue that's causing this". I'm asking you, DisplayLink co-workers to do as might be expected from any decent, honest and hard working company. Please pay proper attention to ALL your supported platforms, or simply DON'T support them at all. At least we (the buyers) than can decide were to spend our hard earned money.

        Honestly: if USB type C is picking up, I'll gladly spend a higher amount of money on that for native support, than the current solution you guys offer Mac users today...

        Please guys, do better...

        DL USB3 to DP has worked fine for me since the 3rd developer preview. In fact, it works better than on 10.10

      • Ivo van Beek commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Same problem here.. OS X 10.11 (15A215h) with latest drivers (2.4) nothing is sent to my screen although my Macbook (MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014) recognizes the extra screen. Any info on solutions?

      • George commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Running 10.11 beta here and would very much like the use of my DisplayLink again. How soon can we alpha or beta test an updated driver?

      • bruce commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

        Same here: 10.11 and no video (and it has trouble even with TB monitors now) on my DL USB 3 monitor. Just bought the thing 2 weeks ago.
