Is this speaker compatible with a 5 YO MacBook with OS X 10.5.8

No. It hasn't been compatible with any MacBook or Mac Desktops that I have tried. Hope this helped!

Yes, via the Mac's Bluetooth feature. Good sound for such a little speaker; used in a 12x15 LR, with 3 other couples present, on the coffee table and it did fine.

AS far as I have been able to determine, the app is for the iPhone, iPad etc. In that context it works fine. But when I pair with my MacBook it only allows me to pair one speaker at a time. When I add speaker #2, speaker #1 is cancelled out, and vice versa. How do I pair two Mini Booms, for stereo on a Mac Book Pro?

I have a new HP desktop and the speaker set-up works fine. I would think you'd like it with your MAC. The bass is excellent and my system has the "beat" system.

Yes it is. Just plug it in and it will just work, just like a mac :) Drag and drop the sound files to wherever you want. It really is that simple.

I have never used MacBook. However as long as I searched with Google, it seems you can connect the speakers to the audio (headphones) output. You should try to search by yourself too.

One reviewer said that it doesn't "sync" with a computer. A shame as I am looking for a good, portable speaker system for both my iphone and macbook. Anyone know of any?

I don't know if it works with a Mac, but I don't see why not. If a Mac has a single input hole for speakers, this will work. Mind you, these are not the greatest pair of speakers. They are good for the price, but I would not use them to listen to music.

Nope--you're good to go! I've had my speakers for several months now & have been using them w/my MacBook Pro. They're great!!

It may clip on, but the question really should be if it is compatible with MAC. I have read this speaker isn't compatible with MAC computers.

Should be no problem. I use it with a Bose amplified speaker that only has an Apple male connector and it works fine with an older computer that does not have Bluetooth.

No, the speaker has a 30 pin dock and so we had to get an adaptor for about 30 bucks from apple for it to work with my daughters iPod gen 5 which is 8 pin like the iPhone 5.

Yup. Just paired it with both my iMac and my wife's 2012 Powerbook. The latter requires both Bluetooth pairing and then selecting the Grain audio device in your sound preferences.
