Product Manuals
A: I don't have a Mac, but I would assume a USB port is a USB port. I am using it on a Dell windows machine with only one regular USB port. I have my mouse, an external light and a passport drive plugged in. It has been working fine.
Q: Does this work on a playstation 4
A: undefined
A: This is not a 'powered' usb hub. I cannot speak to using it for many of the devices you mentioned. I would advise purchasing a more powerful hub than this one. Or, roll the dice. I've been quite happy with it, but my needs are more simple than yours.
Q: Can you get one with a longer cord or a cord to use to make it longer if needed?
A: No, the cord it comes with can't be removed unfortunately.
A: I'm not very savvy about such things, but I have used a cable, usb at one end and phone connector at the other end, to connect to my pc to transfer pictures from my android phone. I've never had a use for and external driver, other than flashdrives/pendrives. The usb hub with the 4 usb ports listed here, is not for the purpose you describe.
Q: will this work to hook two computers to one printer? If not what would you recommend?
A: It will as long as the printer can plug into a USB port.
Q: would this work in a surface pro?
A: It should work with any USB device.
Q: Would this work to hook up 3 wired controllers on a Nintendo Switch?
A: I'm sure it would. I would imagine that you would need to program them to a certain player on the switch, though.
