Is bootcamp needed to run windows7 for Internet Explorer

I would like to know if I need to load BootCamp to run Windows 7 so that I can also use Internet Explorer for working at home with Explorer-only websites.

Hi,
BootCamp might be a bit of 'overkill' for only using IE.
A better solution would be to use a Virtualization app like Parallels; VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox to install Windows.
As these allow you to run Windows alongside OSX without the needed reboot.
Or you can use Crossover for Mac from Codeweavers to run IE (seems to work, but not fully; see their compatibility list).
Regards
Stefan

    The aggregation is not happening for the first time and but it is happened the next time I am running the calculation .Can you make out whatever I am missing in this calc so that it needs to run twice for aggregation to happen?

  • Acrobat PDF reader for Internet Explorer may be unloading/unabling custom plugin

    Hi,
    My question is basically to understand what is happening in this situation so that I can find where is the problem and how to solve it.
    We have used Acrobat 6.0 SDK to develop our custom plugin. This plugin is basically wrapper to few basic tools  (note, stamp, text ) etc.. provided by Acrobat 6.0 SDK. We have also developed PDFViewer.dll to view PDF document within Internet Explorer. So when user load document within our website this PDFViewer loaded with the custom plugin and user can use those tools.
    We are installing this plugin under <Acrobat X>/Plug_ins/<Company Name>/MyPlugin.API.
    In our web site we are giving list of documents and when user click on a document it will load the PDFViewer and custom plugin. We are loading Acrobat.exe in advance so that we can load quickly.  Now the problem happens when user open any other PDF in different tab or instance of Internet explorer. ?How?
    Consider in a internet explorer user logged in our web site and then he/she can see let's say 10 documents. 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf, etc...
    Now when user select document 1.pdf we are loading that PDF in the IE within our PDFViewer with custom plugin. (Here I have seen that behind the scene Acrobat.exe is loaded in the processed using task manager)/  If at this time if user opens another instance of Internet explorer or another tab and open a PDF document it opens PDF in the standard Adobe Reader PDF viewer for Internet Explorer resides at (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX).
    If at this time user goes back to our site and tried to work on 1.pdf our custom plugin works fine BUT if user opens any other document (let's say 2.pdf) the plug in stops working basically looks like it is not loaded.
    This issue only happens if user opens a document in another internet tab or explorer instance and open PDF which resulted in to open Acrobat Activex for internet explorer. If user opens a PDF document out side of internet explorer it is not creating any problem because at that time ActiveX does not loaded.
    So my guess is something is going on when ActiveX for PDF is get loaded into Internet Explorer.
    I want to know more what is happening and why it is happening. Due to this behavior our web site users can't use any other web site which opens PDF documents because then they have to log off and log back in our web site.
    Please we need immediate help.
    I am open to provide more details with screen captures.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Thanks.
    So I want to make sure this is because with Acrobat 9 - the new way to deal with PDF's?  Because as per my knowledge it was working fine with Acrobat 8.
    Moreover, if I am understanding correctly and I have tested too, the order is important here, right? If I will load PDF in IE first and then I will work on my web site it is not creating problem but if I will launch my web site first and then open PDF within IE in different tab it is creating problem because they are using same interface and when AcroPDF instantiating overriding and failed to load plug_in
    Here I have seen that both Acrobat.exe and AcroPDF.dll is using same Acrobat.dll pointing to same memory addresses and that's why problem is happening.
    IT would be great if you can provide any other way to "hook" adobe because the bottom line I have to use AcroExch.App from SDK.
    One last question, I have seen that if I am opening a PDF in Internet Explorer in a different tab (not in my web app) while pressing SHIFT key and the move to my web site and load different document it is working fine, so the question is what different is happening when we open PDF in IE with pressing SHIFT key and without pressing SHIFT key. IS AcroPDF.dll behaves differently while opening PDF with SHIFT key pressed?
    Thanks for all your help.

  • RTSP Embedded for Internet Explorer

    Can anyone explain how to embed a RTSP file into a web page for INternet Explorer? Or even point me to an example of someone else doing this on the web? I cannot seem to find any examples of true RTSP files working inside IE. I am using QTSS for both live and cached files and need IE to be able to display them properly.

  • Special coding for Internet Explorer

    We are modifying a website that was constructed in 2007 using Dreamweaver.  In a .css file containing code for external stylesheets, there are numerous instances of double-coding, based upon brower type-one set of code for IE and another for “other browsers”.  The following is an example:
    #mainCont1  /* other browsers */ {
    float: left;
    max-width: 600px;
    background-color:#FFFFFF;
    z-index:2;
    min-height: 650px;
    *html #mainCont1  /* for IE */ {
    float: left;
    width: 598px;
    background-color:#FFFFFF;
    z-index:2;
    height: 650px;
    The .css and .html code currently supplied by Dreamweaver when creating  a new page does not contain duplicate code for IE.  Is there still a reason to code differently for Internet Explorer? 
    The only reference to variations in browsers when creating a new file in Dreamweaver is the following code in the .css file:
    ul, ol, dl { /* Due to variations between browsers, it's best practices to zero padding and margin on lists. For consistency, you can either specify the amounts you want here, or on the list items (LI, DT, DD) they contain. Remember that what you do here will cascade to the .nav list unless you write a more specific selector. */
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    Would adding this code eliminate the need for double coding in css for  “other browsers" and then for IE as was done in 2007?

    What i can tell about my experience, these are known as "css hacks". If your page code its ok and you page its well build there is no need of this tricks, but sometimes new versions of browsers are "buggy" like IE and you have to help them with this hacks so they show correctly. It happens to me all the time that pages look correctly on firefox for example and different on IE, I dont know why they added the "compatibility mode" button it just get worst.
    this happens to me often when using dynamic content with javascript scripts.

  • Dropping support for Internet Explorer 8,  and  Firefox 20.x or below

    Starting April 30th, we will discontinue support for all Internet Explorer 8 versions and all Firefox 20 versions and below. In order to continue using Business Catalyst Admin user interface without problems, you and your clients need to upgrade to a more recent browser:
    Download Internet Explorer
    Download Safari
    Download Chrome
    Download Firefox

    Thanks for your reply Shay.
    We plan to officially support IE8 with the next patch release to JDeveloper 11g - currently planned for later this year.That matches what I wrote in my initial post in this forum thread about IE8 support.
    We usually only certify browsers after they officially go production.That does not really answer my question (q1) in this forum thread.
    It is more like, how can I assess that Oracle will support any successor(s) of IE8 or successor(s) of any currently supported browsers for ADF 11g applications in the future? How long will Oracle support "commonly used browsers" for an ADF 11g application I build today, so how long will I be able to use that application?
    How do I answer such questions for ADF 11g applications that should be deployed on the internet (where, as some extranet environments, you typically have not that much (or no) control over which browsers your users use ... although some would like to argue with that, see forum thread "ADF Faces RC browser support and browser market share")?
    (By the way, do you have any feedback for the forum thread "ADF 10g support for Internet Explorer 8"?)

  • Web.SHOW_DOCUMENT('URL', '_blank') doesn't work for Internet Explorer 7

    Hello,
    In my company, we are using Oracle Forms 10.1.2.0.2.
    After inserting a URL, users are logged in. There is one page in the application that uses a button to open a PDF in a new page.
    Code behind this button:
    web.SHOW_DOCUMENT('URL', '_blank');
    For internet explorer 6, there is no problem, but last week, some users have upgraded their browser to Internet Explorer 7. When they now push the PDF button, nothing happens. No error is given.
    Could someone please help me..

    Actually, I think a couple of my colleagues have seen this with IE7 recently... It seemed to be related to individual PCs rather than anything in our software, and was sort-of sporadic. I think on one of the PCs, there'd been an update to the Google toolbar and that had caused problems (and of course, if you have Google toolbar, that has its own popup blocker that you need to disable for the site in question.)
    Sorry to be vague, but I would look for any other browser plug-ins on the machine that might be causing issues.

  • Flash Player for Internet Explorer has to be reinstalled

    Every time I'm booting my computer, Flash Player for Internet Explorer has to be installed. I'm using Win7, 64 bits. Without reinstalling, Real Player will not play offline. However, when accessing YouTube with IE, it plays the video without reinstalling. Computers are fun!

  • Can anyone recommend a programmer that can fix iWeb for Internet Explorer?

    Can anyone recommend a programmer that can fix iWeb for Internet Explorer? I had one experienced source from GetaFreelancer.com who did a 17 page fix for $25. He would have done commented code for $40 so I could do the fixes myself afterward but he is not available right now. Guru.com yielded no comparable sources. Elance has a $50 minimum. All the other bids were in the hundreds of dollars without the commented code.

    The image on the right of your index page needs pulling down a bit, it looks messy covering the top banner.
    Secondly, you've changed quite a lot on your page so this makes life harder for everyone. For example, now at the bottom of the page in fireFox I see 'IP' on the line below the rest of the details, but because you changed things I now don't know whether that's because of my screen resolution or your coding. Is it still on one line for you?
    The problem with your columns may partly be based on the fact that you have a variety of span classes effectively achieving the same thing, and there are lots of unnecessary bits of code. How much of this is iWeb and how much is you I don't know. You've got an li class, a paragraph class, a written-out span class and some kind of specified bullet class all for one sentence. You only need one, maximum two of those things. Even if it's not conflicting and that's not the reason why it looks messed up, you'd do better to strip the code of all the unnecessary rubbish.
    To do this with help I recommend someone who is familiar with iWeb and has access to it in front of them. A professional programmer won't be able to help you, because they can't really tell which bits are generated by iWeb and which parts you can actually change.
    I recommend starting with a blank page and creating your columns and text without any styling other than bullets. Check it in both IE and FF. Then slowly begin to add your styling back in until you see if there's a problem. Finally, put the text on a (new) page which has your full website styling and see if there's a conflict between your page layout code and your page text code.

  • How can I know if the version of Flash Player installed is the right version for Internet Explorer?

    Hello,
    I have Windows 7 Starter with Internet Explorer 8 and Adobe Flash Player 10,1,85,3.
    I am experiencing problems with one particular web site which uses Flash technology to operate its web site., which is:
    gadget-detective.moonfruit.com.
    It has been suggested to me that I check I have installed the correct Flash Player for the web browser
    I am using which is Internet Explorer 8, that in particular I should check I have not installed in error a Flash Player
    for "other browsers". I do not know how to check if the version of Flash Player I have installed is the correct one for
    Internet Explorer, but, when I go to the Adobe web site at:
    http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    it states that Flash Player is successfully installed.
    Here are the problems I have been encountering with accessing the above-mentioned "gadget-detective" web site,
    where I have had to use different URLs to attempt to get access to the technical advice areas on their web site:
    1)A Welcome page with a link to the Free Technical Advice page located someway down the centre of the Welcome page,
    but still with none of the previous links along the left side:

    How can I be certain that I have the correct version of Flash Player for my web browser Internet Explorer 8?
    Regards.

    Hello  ʇɐb ɹəuəllıʍ ,
    Thanks for your reply. I would appreciate it if you could let me know what the Flash Player setting
    called "Hardware Acceleration" does, before I try disabling it.
