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.

How can I get Windows Internet explorer on my MacBook air?

I have several websites that I need to use for my new job that have not been tested for Mac. I don't want to have to buy a PC laptop, so I was wondering if there is a tried and true way to get windows Internet explorer on my MacBook air.

Or install Parallels 7 and then you can run IE just like any other app from within OS X itself. That costs around $50 plus the Windows license though.
Personally I have created an IE9 RDP (remote) App on my terminal server at work and just run that. Looks like it is running on my Mac natively.

How do i install internet explorer on my macbook air?

I need to install Internet Explorer to access my company's intranet, not sure how to do it? Any help? Thanks

The only way is to install Windows first
Microsoft stopped producing IE for Mac years ago
Sorry to hear the your company is so far behind that it forces its employees to use something as out of date as IE

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.

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?

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.

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.

Pdf files unable to be downloaded from internet explorer

I have just purchased my first ipod nano, 4th generation. Since I have downloaded itunes to my computer I cannot view pdf files from internet explorer. I then removed itunes from the computer and pdf files could be downloaded from internet explorer. I then downloaded and installed itunes again and had the same problem all aver again. Could someone please tell me why this is happening.

Hi there mba,
Check out this thread, here a post from dansmith details the following steps:
"The issue is caused when Windows creates the printer profile in the control panel that it doesn't correctly create it with the drivers.
We're not going to completely uninstall all the HP software, instead we're going to remove the corrupt Windows printer profile and reinstall it. Total time for this on an average computer is about 5-10 minutes to completely repair (including reboot).
1) Navigate to Start Menu > Devices and Printers or Start Menu > Control Panel > Printers
2) Select each printer profile for the printer with an issue, then select remove device/printer.
3) Reboot
4) Navigate to Start Menu > All Programs > HP > insert model # here > Add Printer (or Setup Wizard)
5) Follow the setup prompts to reinstall the printer profile and it recreates the Windows printer.
6) Run the HP Update Tool from Start Menu > All Programs > HP if your printer installs it, rebooting afterwards if necessary.
7) Test by printing google.com (uses very little ink when the test page comes out)."
Try his steps out and let us know if it helps. '
Best of Luck!

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.

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.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
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.
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.
VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
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.

Can I put Microsoft Internet explorer on my ipad mini?

Can I put Microsoft Internet explorer on my ipad mini ?

No. Microsoft Internet Explorer runs on Windows based devices, There is no version for Apple Devices.
The iPad comes with Safari as its default browser.
There are also alternative browsers in the App Store liike Chrome, Opera among many others.
Perhaps one of those may work for you.

Using Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 with PDFs

I loaded Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 and was no longer able to load PDF files. The window opened but nothing displayed. I also noticed if arm.exe is disabled, PDFs won't load either. Do you know of problems reading PDFs with IE 10?

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

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.
