    As in, use the Macbook itself to type in chat? Sorry, but I don't think that's possible. A wired/wireless USB keyboards is the only way to go, for the time being.

    If that isn't what you were reffering to, please specify a bit of what you're going for.

    Bluetooth worked on the PS3...did they drop support for that on the PS4? But no, I don[t know of any way to make any notebook's keyboard talk to anybody but the notebook...

    I've used a spare Mac usb keyboard but I don't know how you would go about getting your MacBook to connect. How about ipad oriphone using the PSN app? Not awesome but better than using ps4 controller to type.

    Yes you should be able to run the type2phone app on your Mac and pair it with your ps4.

    1keyboard should also work for using your macbook's built in keyboard to type on the ps4 but type2phone is cheaper.

    Another brilliant thing is that you can use voice dictation on your Mac and have it typed on the ps4.
