August 1, 2018 DisplayLink has posted a significant update regarding a permanent solution to restore complete functionality for users with the upcoming release of Mojave (10.14). Users and developers with access to Apple’s 5th developer preview of Mojave will now see that “full support has now been restored for multiple extended DisplayLink displays where DisplayLink driver v4.3 beta 5 is installed.” With this new Apple OS update (to be released soon, ETA unknown), we are hoping that we will see full support of DisplayLink-based StarTech.com products restored (enabling multiple displays in extended mode). With this update, our Product Development team will be doing extensive testing on the latest developer release. They are also working closely with DisplayLink on the timing for a release of updated drivers.

Original Post Apple recently released a new version of macOS (version 10.13.4). It was found that this new version caused compatibility issues with products that use DisplayLink technology, such as USB docking stations and video adapters. The result of this issue is that products in this category that use this technology may no longer have video. Peripheral ports on the docking stations (usb, ethernet, audio) will continue to function. DisplayLink is currently working on fixing the issue identified in this release.

Recommendations Since there is no immediate fix or workaround for this issue, StarTech.com suggests that customers using any of the products listed above refrain from updating to the macOS High Sierra beta path. To ensure compatibility for your StarTech.com device, we recommend turning off automatic macOS updates on your Apple computer and remaining on 10.13.3. This will ensure compatibility for your StarTech.com device. It’s as simple as disabling the following check box in the App Store preferences: Product Suggestions If you are considering purchasing a new docking station to use with a computer running Mac OS, we recommend a Thunderbolt based model as they do not require drivers and is natively supported by Mac OS. Thunderbolt 2 and 3 also offer higher data transfer rates which will allow for display connectivity up to 4K resolutions and dual 4K60 with Thunderbolt 3.
