Hi Cait, Focus bue should be alright on a mac if you use that platform. It works on window-eyes but with very limitted functionality. If using window-eyes you would be better off with a brailliant BI or a Braille Edge. If using NVDA, it has native support for focus blue and brailliant BI, but I don't know about the brailleedge.
If you have specific questions about compatibility you can email me off list and I'll find out.
