Product ReviewsApple MMEL2AM/A Thunderbolt 3 USB-C to Thunderbolt 2 Adapter

A bit pricey, but it works, which is the main thing.

It works just fine. I think Apple rips people on items that they really have no competition on, but this is a good product and allows me to use my older peripherals with a brand new iMac, so... all is well. I recommend.Read full review...

Used with iMovie to control MiniDV camera with daisy-chained Firewire adaptor

Does what it says on the box.
I daisy-chained it with a firewire connector to connect an older MiniDV camera to my Macbook Pro and it works perfectly with iMovie for reading MiniDV cassettes.

Just as described!

Brand new, works perfectly, and for a bargain. Desperately needed this for a separate Mac monitor I just purchased for work. Thank you for saving my work life because working from just my laptop screen was making me lose my will to live.Read full review...

Great adapter

Works well. Let’s me use my thunderbolt 2 hard drives with my iMac with thunderbolt 3 ports. Still faster than usb 3.0

It works as advertised.

Good quality and stylish adapter. A bit expensive, but typical for Apple. Worked fine in my iMac to use some legacy storage devices.

Flawless connection

It was a perfect plug and play to get a new Mac Mini computer connected to an older Thunderbolt monitor.

It won't connect a USB-C disk drive to a Thunderbolt 2 computer.

This adapter will not work to connect a Thunderbolt 2 equipped computer with a Thunderbolt 3 / USB-C disk drive. Apple says there I a cable that will accomplish this, but they no longer sell it, and I have been unable to find one.Read full review...

Worked like a champ!

This enabled me to continue to use some older devices that I would have had to retire. Good solid adapter with no issues

May work for some apps, but not the one I bought it for.

+ cables fit on both ends, seems to be of good quality

- Didn't work; wanted to attach to a USB-C HD enclosure, but it appears that the enclosure did not receive sufficient power thru the bus, so I can't comment further.Read full review...
