How do I install Microsoft Internet Explorer?

How do I down load Microsoft internet explorer? I already have a version of Internet explorer but a websit is requesting I use icrosoft internet Explorer 5.1 0r higher

There is no Internet Explorer for OS X. If you must use it then you need to be running Windows.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • How can i install an internet explorer on OS X mountain lion?

    hi,
    i want to use internet explorer on my mac, is there any way to install.
    i need it as there are some websites which can open only in internet explorer, its a loss for me that i cant open websites on this safari
    kindly help me if any one knows or using IE.
    thanks

    That is completely false about Windows. Windows does not automatically get infected with anything the minute you connect it to the net. My god where do you come up with that? I run several Windows PCs and none of them run any malware or anti virus programs and none of them have ever been infected with anything and they are always connected to the Internet. I'm typing this reply from one such Windows PC.
    It's all about how you use your computer not the OS it runs. Sure Windows is a much bigger target for the scum of the world to attack as it has 90% of the market so the people that write the viruses and malware programs do it for a system they have a better chance of infecting.
    But to ***-U-Me that just because you have Windows and you go to the Net that it will get infected with something is just a Bold Face Lie. And I suspect you know that.
    So why not post truths instead of the Lie in your post.
    By the way Mac's can also be infected as has been proven recently. So no matter what OS you run you can get infected. Now that is not a Lie.

    The two responses above are right- there is no Windows Explorer version that will install in Mountain Lion.
    There are a couple of things you can try that might work, short of installing Windows on your machine, either in a virtual machine (like virtual box or parallels) or with bootcamp. Personally, I hate either of those options, just because windows is such a magnet for malware and viruses. The second you expose windows to the internet it becomes infected.

    If you have a tablet that runs full Windows 8 - not Windows 8 RT, which is limited.
    And if you install the full Adobe Reader for Windows, not the special Adobe Reader Touch for Windows 8.
    Then you will have the same features as a desktop.
    Unless they can't be accessed in touch mode, since it isn't a touch app.

  • I have imported from Microsoft Internet Explorer favorites, cookies, history and they are not available after importing under the Bookmarks tab. How do I find the import of favorites in firefox?

    When importing from Microsoft Internet Explorer I have successfully completed and clicked on finish. I am not finding my favorites under the Bookmarks tab. I have shut down Firefox and and restarted the browser and still not finding favorites. I also restarted the computer still not finding favorites imported from Microsoft Internet Explorer. How can I find the data imported from Microsoft Internet Explorer?

    You can usually find the imported IE Favorites in a folder ("From Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks).
    If you can't find them in the "From Internet Explorer" folder then try this:
    * Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html): File > Import and Export
    * Import the HTML file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML: From File

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer for Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard

    Hi I'm trying to access a report via a website but a message comes up saying that I need to go via Microsoft Internet Explorer.  I've tried accessing it via Firefox without luck.  Any suggestions?

    There is no IE for the Mac. All you can do in either Firefox or Safari is to change the User Agent to one of the IE choices, but that may not work for websites that require IE features that simply do not exist for Macs.
    If you really need to access such websites then you would have to run Windows on the Mac.

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 8 "Auto Analyzer" causes Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 and 10 to freeze.

    Adobe Premiere Elements 8 "Auto Analyzer" causes Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 and 10 to freeze. How is this fixed? Uninstall your software?

    Leo_Do
    Are you running Premiere Elements 8 as the 8.0.1 Update. If not, please do so
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4653
    The automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalyzer features of version 8 are major grabbers of system resources.
    The 8.0.1 shuts off the automatic Background Rendering feature. See Edit Menu/Preferences/General and the background
    rendering option there.
    But, you have to shut off the AutoAnalzyer feature yourself in the Elements Organizer part of the program. To do that:
    1. Click on the Organizer tab in the row below the active Organize header in order to open the Elements Organizer.
    2. In the Elements Organizer workspace, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalzyer options and turn them all off.
    3. To get back to the Premiere Elements workspace from the Elements Organizer workspace, in the Elements Organizer
    workspace, go to File Menu/Exit.
    But back to what you actually wrote
    Adobe Premiere Elements 8 "Auto Analyzer" causes Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 and 10 to freeze. How is this fixed? Uninstall your software?
    Are you saying, with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 closed, that you are having these freezing problems with the non Adobe programs mentioned OR are you multitasking with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 project open when the freeze occur in these non Adobe programs?
    In the context of an opened or closed Premere Elements program, please check to be sure, when you close Premiere Elements, that the close is reflected in the Task Manager/Processes. When Premiere Elements is closed by you, are you still seeing it displayed in Task Manager/Processes?
    We will be watching for your follow up and deciding what next based on the details that you supply.
    Thanks.

  • Setup failed (Could not write value devenv.exe to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION)

    Hello, all,
    I encounter a really confused problem while installing Visual Studio 2013 Professional.
    It say Install cannot continue because some required components failed.
    And there is error information given by log file.
    [1868:0558][2015-04-18T00:55:46]i000: MUX:  ExecuteError: Package (vs_devenv) failed: Error Message Id: 1406 ErrorMessage: Could not write value devenv.exe to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION.
      Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
    [2058:2044][2015-04-18T00:55:47]e000: Error 0x80070643: Failed to install MSI package.
    [2058:2044][2015-04-18T00:55:47]e000: Error 0x80070643: Failed to execute MSI package.

    Strange is that I cannot even find the key FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION under
    FeatureControl.
    I have searched in Internet, but no one gives out a effective way to solve this problem.
    Could you help me!!! Thank you very much.

    Hello Forever_fzf,
    The problem is that Visual Studio is trying to write that key to your OS but failed. There are many possible reasons so it is hard to check it just from the above error info, I think you can take the following actions to test whether they can fix your problem:
    1. It is possible the the source(the installer) is corrupt on your OS. So our first step is to check the source. Please download the ISO format and verify its hash checksum sha-1 value by refer to the following page:
    https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/downloads/visual-studio-2013-iso-sha1-vs
    2. If the source is alright, check that you are administrator and you have ran the setup as administrator. If you've already checked that and you still do not have privilege when install. We need to refer to the following blog:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2006/09/04/solving-setup-errors-by-using-the-subinacl-tool-to-repair-file-and-registry-permissions.aspx
    It contains a script, the script will involve subinacl tool to give all registries the Admin privilege, then you will be able to write keys to that registries.
    3. The reigistry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BLOCK_CROSS_PROTOCOL_FILE_NAVIGATION sounds related to IE. May I also know your IE version?
    Best regards,

  • Is it possible to download Microsoft Internet Explorer to my MacBook Air?

    I have several different sites that I have to use for my job.  However, one of the sites is not supported by Mac, Safari or Firefox.  It is only supported by Internet Explorer.  Can I download Microsoft Internet Explorer to my MacBook Air?  And, if so, how do I do that?

    There is another much more simple option than what JasonFear is offering.
    First in Safari open Preferences - Advanced and click Show Develop Menu in Menu Bar. The click the Develop menu - User Agent - and choose the version of Internet Explorer you want. This will allow Safari to open IE developed websites.
    Great suggestion, rkaufman. I forgot all about that option. I'll be curious to see if that works for the OP my experiences with that "simulation mode" haven't been very successful.

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer

    I have a software application that will only open in Microsoft Internet Explorer because it needs to install Active X. Is there anyway to use IE on a Mac without having to install a Windows operating system as well?

    Try using CrossOver Mac to run Internet Explorer.

    Just to be clear, Office 2010 is for Windows.  Office 2011 is for Mac.  If you actually are trying to install Office 2010, you'll need to have installed Windows on your Mac either through Boot Camp or in a virtual machine.

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer message

    Receiving a Microsoft Internet Explorer messages after updating a request.
    We made a change to a particular service in our integration environment and deployed these changes to model and then to production.  After the deploy, we found that each time someone wants to update a service in a requisition, after they click the update button, a Microsoft Internet Explorer messages appears:
    You have either changed data or left mandatory fields blank on this page.  Your changes will be lost unless you click Update before preoceeding.  Press OK to continue, or Cancel to stay on the current page.
    The changes we made were to a particular service but the message is now appearing with all services.
    We are using IE 6

    I found our own solution.  A developer was testing a script in our lower environment that applys to all forms, and when we deployed new services to model and production, the script automatically got deployed.

  • Why is my Firefox Add-ons (Crowdstar Gamebar - Ask Toolbar) installed on Internet Explorer instead? Some of my game friends can see and use it on Firefox.

    Why is Firefox add-on (Crowdstar Gamebar) installed on Internet Explorer instead? Some of my game friends can see and use it on Firefox after installing it on Firefox.
    My Firefox is version 3.6.9.
    http://gb.crowdstar.com/

    That is not a Firefox addon, it is an installer package that can install anything it wants on your PC. As far as why it installed on IE and not Firefox, that would be a question for technical support for that product.

    How can I install Microsoft Silverlight. Is there an app for this?
    Ipad does not recognise programms .dmg

    You can't. Silverlight applications won't work on iOS devices.
    .dmg files are typically Mac OS X disk image files, you can't run them on an iPad either.
