Just got a Viper Ultimate for Christmas and I use Mac. Very disappointed that synapse 2 does not recognize it and Synapse 3 does not support Mac. Debating whether to return it now. Please either update Synapse 2 to support your newer hardware, or come out with synapse 3 for Mac.
ahh ffs I just bought a Nari Ultimate headset for my ps5 and I was hoping I could change some setting on the Razer Synapse software 3 but that's not compatible with Mac OS even though your products are supported under Mac OS not sure if that's still classed under false advertisement
"The question is: which one will you choose?" None.
Ok, one more voice. For my mac laptop I bought huntsman keyboard, naga pro mouse, core x chroma egpu and what? I cannot properly customize my keyboard and mouse. Wow, such a "nice" gaming experience, guys. Frustrated.
Razer please support MacOS!!! I have bought the naga pro for Windows desktop and MacBook use, come to find out its not supported on mac... are you kidding me? This is unprofessional to say the least.

Everyone post here for Synapse 3 on Mac: /what-would-you-like-to-see-next-from-razer.1573/page-283
I recently purchased a Razer Kraken Kitty Edition headset and couldn't get it to work with Synapse 2 on Mac (MacBook Pro 13" 2020) through a USB-C adapter. The headset lights up and I am able to listen to audio and his the microphone, but that's about it.

I was able to get Razer Synapse 3 to work on my Mac hardware just fine, however, this was through Windows 10 on Parallels. It didn't pick up the headset straight away and I had to exit all Razer processes while setting up the headset (selecting Windows 10 when given the choice with the dialogue boxes for headphones and microphones when the headset is first plugged in, then giving Mac permissions to Parallels to use the headset), but once I completed the process, it showed up in Synapse 3 just fine and I was able to get full control of the headset. Upon exiting Windows 10/Parallels, if the headset is still plugged into the USB, it will just default back to the white lights and basic audio functions.

I'm yet to try and see if the headset/Synapse 3 will work on an older MacBook Pro 13" (2017) through Windows on Boot Camp, but I imagine it will. Obviously not an ideal workaround with Parallels or Boot Camp, but it's an option to those who have it as I'm not holding out for full support, given the response.
plz Razer Synapse 3 update to Mac

So your solution is that I scrap my $2000 Imac, buy or build a widnows machine, in order to get a couple of Razer products that together maybe cost $250. Wow, what an absolutely wonderful solution. How about Razer supporting their products??

We know Apple deliver great products
and I am sorry if I offend / hurt any Apple users, fans, enthusiasts

Care to join Windows?

As what @Jenjar have posted RAZER have no plans to support Synapse 3 on Mac

But who knows if things change, but would you wait years for that change to occur?

It's just flat-out disappointing.. imagine being a major gaming company and you don't have something as basic as support for MacOS... plenty of smaller brands have it. I know for a fact with your resources you guys can pump this out like clockwork. For someone like me who wants to sync Razer with my Phillips Hue, not having Synapse 3 is a major bummer. Anyone know any workaround to get it working? If not, I'll just be returning my Razer devices.

I completely agree, this is outrageous. We spend our hard earned money on their products and they don't have the curtesy of supporting us. Every other piece of software I have has been updated to support Mac OS 11 except razer. Making my mouse and Tarturus virutally useless. And as has been said, they have never bothered to release Synapse 3 for the mac. I am done with Razer and will start posting criticisms wherever and whenever I can

I am sorry for the late response, however as far as I am aware, there are currently no plans to support Synapse 3 on Mac.

Hallo Razer-Support,
please make Synapse 3 available for OS X too – just like Synapse 2 before!
I would love to configure the colors of my new Razer Goliathus Chroma XL.
Kind regards Mike

thanks
I had Logitech pro, changed for Ultimate Viper, juste wanted to switch off the led on the mouse but need Razer Synapse 3.
I m on Mac ... by providing a software for only Windows you re showing how small you are.
I didn t even thought that it could be not possible to have a software for Mac from Razer. No worry, next one will be a Logitech.

If you don t provide a software for Mac users because their not valuable to you, do It at least for your Brand image of a serious and big company.

I just purchased the huntsman elite keyboard for my mac, I was going to use it mainly for my job as a developer, and I had no clue when I made the decision to buy huntsman elite that mac is not supported.

My question, After the latest thread about the mac support (a year ago), will synapse 3 be available for mac users in the near future? if not, I have no choice but to return the keyboard.

Note: I know that mac is not a gaming machine, but there is a wide variety of people that tends to buy gaming accessories now for their home office setups (chairs, keyboards, mouses ...) so it would be nice to support mac users for the next-gen devices that you are producing ...

Unfortunately this happened to me as well. I just purchased a new razer mouse, which is not fully functional on my mac. What a waste of money. On the Package its still saying compatible with mac... the past years i was satisfied with razer products on the mac. If there is no further support the next devices won't be razer products.
Razer should make the software available for the mac quickly.
I just purchased ornata v2 but i have a mac. pls make it supported to Mac Os!

After reading that Synapse 2 was supported for Mac, I bought the Basilisk. After several hours of trying, all I get is "Please connect a Razer Synapse enabled device", and what's worse is that macOS CLEARLY sees that this is a Razer product in the system report! WTH Razer! Thank you for free returns Amazon.....
Hahahahahha its really a joke, you are bad humans razer team, go to fck!!

No plan to support Mac Os, too bad, after a long year of using Razer mice it's time to look elsewhere. It is well known that SteelSeries devices are fully supported by Windows and Mac Os !
Razer please add Synapse 3 for Mac support, it isn't even that hard too change the code just to run on Mac. With the new apple silicon out, many people are using their Macs for gaming as it's more powerful and all Mac users with Razer products aren't able to use them to its full capability. Razer, please this one thing for the community.
Bro, im bored with this situation. My girlfriend give me a Deathadder Essencial on my birthday, and I was to excited to work with this on my MacBook. Until I get stucked with Synapse 3 don't have support on MacOS. Bro?

What kind of company, mainly this size, does not support the main systems?

Please! Do something Razer! Its not big at all, but its SO frustrating.
It's incredible that they don't upgrade to give the same benefits to the minority and focus more on the majority of consumers. It leaves us a bad taste of Razer.
a synapse 2 update for compatibility with big sur OS would be nice too :frown_:
i just want to be able to use macros and change lights in my keyboard o_O
