How do you run a .exe file on a MacBook?

I downloaded a game off the internet and it is a .exe file. Nothing on my mac opens it. Help!

You can try Crossover.
It isn't free, but it lets you run most common windows apps without having to buy windows. (it only works on intel macs).
Good luck!

  • How do you run another Java file from a master Java file?

    We're making a game in Java at school, and we need to know how we can run a Java file from another one - like inside the master Java file, we need to have a command to run game.java (something like that). Thanks!

    We're making a game in Java at school, and we need to know how we can run a Java file from another one - like inside the master Java file, we need to have a command to run game.java (something like that). Thanks!One doesn't "run a Java file", and there's no conventional definition of "master Java file". If you want to call the main() method of another class, just make sure the class is in your classpath and call the method. If you want to start up a separate JVM with that class as a process, use Runtime.exec() or similar method.

  • How do you run a .sh file without errors?

    Hi. For any of you who are familiar with the game Minecraft, I'm trying to start making my own mods using Minecraft Forge Source. However, in the installation instructions, it says I have to run the install.sh file. But whenever I run it in Terminal, here's all that comes out in the Terminal window:
    *******-MacBook-Pro:~ *******$ /Users/*******/Downloads/forge/install.sh ; exit;python: can't open file 'install.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
    logout
    [Process completed]
    Could somebody tell me how to properly run the .sh file without errors? Any help that anyone gives will be appreciated. Thanks.

  • How do I download a .exe file on my macbook pro?

    I am trying to download a .exe file -- I just switched to a macbook pro from a PC.  help!

    You can download any file you like to your Mac, but you won't be able to run an .exe natively as they're for the Windows operating system.  You could purchase something like Parallels if you want to run Windows software, or alternatively use Boot Camp.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you cut and paste files from a Macbook?

    I am trying to cut (edit, select all, cut) and paste from a Macbook Pro, but when I try to paste into an external hard-drive, the paste function is greyed-out.  Command V doesn't even do anything.  How can I complete this simple task?  Thank you. 

    The hard drive is probably not Mac-writeable - likely it's NTFS (Windows) format.
    If it's empty, you can reformat it to Mac format using Disk Utility.
    If it has files that you need and/or you don't want to reformat, you can try Paragon NTFS to allow you to write to the drive.

  • How can i run a jar file as EXE on mouse click..

    *{color:#0000ff}how can i run a jar file as EXE on mouse click..is it possible in any way?????????{color}*

    *{color:#0000ff}how can i run a jar file as EXE on mouse click..is it possible in any way?????????{color}*Do you mean converting it from a jar file to an EXE file or do you mean that you would like to run the application by just double clicking it?
    If it's the latter then you need to make the jar file including a manifest.
    The manifest can be just a txt file with its content to be something like this:
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1
    Created-By: Somebody
    Main-Class: NameOfTheMainClass
    Class-Path:
    X-COMMENT: Main-Class will be added automatically by buildTo make the jar file including the manifest, use something like this in your command prompt (of course you must have compiled your java file(s) first):
    jar cfm test.jar MANIFEST.txt NameOfTheMainClass.classAfter that you'd be able to run your application just by double clicking it.
    If you're a NetBeans user, you can build your standalone application by right-clicking your project and then going to properties => run => and choosing a Main class. After that right click on that project and "Clean and Build", locate the jar file in the "dist" folder and double click it =]

    Sorry, but you should define more precisely what is your goal:
    " i searhced about exe  format but i didnt find enough info"
    If you build an exe using Labview, that exe will not run on iOS, or Android, if this is what you ask...
    Nor Windows Phone or Windows RT. A LabVIEW exe is compiled and linked for x86 or AMD64 architecture with Win32 API architecture and will only run on Windows for x86 or x64 systems.
    Windows Phone and Windows RT are despite the similarity in the name technically completely different platforms to the normal Desktop Windows system, just as different as MacOS X or iOS.

  • How do I change and .exe file so it will work on my mac?

    I am trying to download an Active X plug-in and install it on my Mac so I can log onto a website that supports this Active X plug-in only. How do I change an .exe file so it will work to where I can install it on my Mac?

    You can't install Windows software natively on your Mac but you can run Microsoft Virtual PC <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/virtualpc/virtualpc.aspx?pid=virtualpc> if your Mini is a PowerPC Mac or you can use something like Parallels <http://www.parallels.com> or Apple's Boot Camp <http://www.apple.com/bootcamp> if your Mini is an Intel Mac.
    Virtual PC comes with Windows but Parallels and Boot Camp will require you to install your own licensed version of Windows purchased separately.
    Then you'll be able to run Windows on your Mac, which means you can use ActiveX in your IE browser.

    Its software now hardware .... some times u need these things ...anyway do u ve solution for my questionSo what? By creating a native executable you are restricting the program to the OS for which that native executable was made, just like removing the engine from a car restricts driving to downhill only. So like the I said, the principle remains the same, "Why would you want to?"
    I am asking you, truthfully, why do you feel the need to negate the largest advantage of using Java by creating a native executable from it?
    What is your rationale?
    I can pretty much guarantee there is a much better way of achieving your wish without "removing the engine".
