How to use Internet Explorer???

Greetings! Kinda strange question but here goes: Is there a way to use/run IE (Internet Explorer web browser) without installing Windows via Bootcamp/Parallels? I have an important business application (from live auto auctions) that will only run through IE. Weird. The program won't run on Safari or even Firefox period. I surely hate to install Windows 7 completely and of course the virtual software to run it!!! Any help out there?

I hate when developers do that.

well, there is the old IE for mac. its support has been dropped years ago but you can try and see if it works with your app.

  • How to use Internet Explorer 11 64 bits rather than the 32 bit version, on Windows 7 familial premium 64 bit

    Hi,
    my system : up to date computer, W7 familial premium (64 bit), Internet Explorer 11 (32 bit)
    I use this computer on the web to visit just one website, always the same and several hours a day ; this site advocate the use of Internet Explorer 64 bits for more efficiency.
    How can I get to install, or switch to the 64 bit version of Internet Explorer, as presently when I try to install a downloaded version, I get as an answer something like "installation not possible because the more up to date version of Internet Explorer
    is already installed on your computer". Thanks

    Hi,
    On a 64-bit version of Windows, please click system drive, there should be a “Program Files” and “program Files x86”,
     the "Program Files" folder is for 64-bit programs and the "Program Files (x86)" folder is for 32-bit programs, you will find IE11 64 bit has already installed in you system in “Program Files”>”Internet explorer”.

    How do I access websites that warn: "Firefox is NOT compatible with this application. For best performance, please use Internet Explorer 5.0 and above...."? When I try to download any alternate browser, all I get is another warning that the alternate is "not compatible with your operating system." Is Firefox preventing this? The site listed below is a job application site. I've had this same problem with other job application sites also.

    There should be a User Agent Switcher menu item under Tools, which gives you the browser names you can impersonate.
    The menu item name changes to the browser UA you are presently using.
    There is also a User Agent Switcher button, you can add it using View -> Toolbars -> Customize, and dragging the button to your toolbar.
    See http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/features/ and http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/help/
    You can just start trying IE versions (or the versions it says on the site) until it lets you in.

  • How do I insure that Firefox is my full-time browser -- I was using Internet Explorer prior to downloading Firefox. Shud I delete Internet Explorer?

    I want to only use Firefox as my full-time browser. I do not want to use Internet Explorer because it doesn't work on a web site I want to use, but Firefox does work. All I want to know is how do I insure that Firefox will be my full-time browser?

    Please do the following:<br><br>
    #Start Internet Explorer.<br><br>
    #Click Tools | Internet Options and then click the Programs tab.<br><br>
    #Remove the checkmark from: "''Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser''.<br><br>
    #Click Apply/OK and then close Internet Explorer.<br><br>
    #Start Firefox, click the orange Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced.<br><br>
    #In the General tab, menu at the bottom, checkmark "'''Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup'''" and then click the "''Check Now''" button.<br><br>
    #Click OK.
    That's all there is to it.

  • How to remove Open/Save prompt when using Internet Explorer

    Acrobat XI Pro was deployed with custom MST that had When using Internet Explorer prompt for Open/Save.  Is there a hack that will disable this prompt without having to re-install Acrobat XI Pro?

    An engineer gave me a possible solution, but I don't have permission on my machine to test it. You can try the following:
    -- snip --
    This is because of not having necessary permissions to edit the registry. To obtain the permission, follow following steps:
    Right click on “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroPDF.FDF.1” and click permissions.
    On permissions dialog, click Advanced.
    In the new dialog, select Owner tab and make current user as owner.
    Click Apply and close the dialog.
    Close the permission dialog.
    Try editing the registry as suggested.

    Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should remove and update to the latest Flash player.
    *Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19
    You can find the old Flash plugin file NPSWF32.DLL in the plugins folder within the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\) and remove that file.
    Also remove the flashplayer.xpt file in the components folder.

  • How to stop Internet Explorer upgrade to IE 10 & IE 11

    Dear All,
    How to stop Internet Explorer upgrade to IE 10 & IE 11 
    In our environment we have around 300 workstations.I need to stop all of the machine users from manually downloading and installing IE.Also how do it stop the IE from updating using Group policy on windows server 2008 & windows server 2003.
    All users machine are on windows 7.
    Basically i want all users to get restricted to IE9.
    Thanks ..
    Mike...
    Regards, Mike ||Persistent Work Triumphs||

    Hi Mike,
    >>Basically i want all users to get restricted to IE9.
    Internet Explorer 10 will be available as an “Important” update through the Automatic Update feature of Windows Update. Users of Windows 7 Service Pack 1, who have opted to
    download and install updates automatically through Windows Update (recommended setting), will automatically be upgraded to Internet Explorer 10.
    However, we can prevent users from upgrading to IE 10 via Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or System Center 2012 Configuration Manager.
    Regarding how to prevent users from upgrading to IE10 or IE11, the following two articles can be referred to for more information.

    how to install internet explorer 8 in windows 8 pc.

    Hi,
    Internet Explorer 8 is not compatible to install in Windows 8/8.1 PC.
    As Rob suggested, we could use Internet Explorer 10 (In Windows 8) or Internet Explorer 11 (In Windows 8.1) developer tools to emulate IE8,
    Using the F12 developer tools; Or build a Virtual Machine.
    Besides, here is the download page:

  • I am unable to view some (but not all) videos in Firefox. But I can view ALL videos when I use Internet Explorer. Please help. I do not want to use IE.

    as stated, I am unable to view some videos in Firefox, but I am able to view them when I use Internet Explorer. How can I view all videos when using Firefox. Thank you.

    That is Flash.
    You do have the Flash player installed according to your More system details list, so Flash should be working.
    *Shockwave Flash 10.3 r183

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
