MAC and Windows Internet Explorer

Is there a way to run internet explorer on a Mac?

capturedbyellen –
First welcome to the Apple Forms.
The short answer is yes – there are basically two methods that you could use:
Option 1: Run Parallels/Bootcamp and install Windows XP on your Mac. Though this will give you the greatest flexibility in running Windows apps, it also generates the most headaches – just look at the number of post concerning this option. Also this has the greatest cost $79 for Parallels (Bootcamp is free from Apple) plus the cost of Windows.
Option 2: Install Crossover from Codeweavers (www.codeweavers.com) this product is based on the WINE project and basically installs a 'Run Time' version of Windows XP. I am currently running IE6 in a ‘bottle’ with no problems as I need to access Outlook Web Access. This solution is also the cheapest ($39 for standard - $69 for Pro).
Either of the solutions should work though my preference is Crossover.
Best of Luck –

  • Print and even print preview comes out unreadable. Do i need to change any internal print options. My printer works with the old firefox and windows internet explorer for the SAME document. I only have a problem printing while in firefox 4.0.

    My printouts from web pages using the previous firefox and internet explorer products work.

    There's a bug in 4.0b12, which is fixed in 4.0RC.
    Open '''Help > About Firefox''' and it should check for and install the update. If it doesn't, use the '''Check for Update''' button in that "About" dialog.

  • Mac and Windows internet access

    Hi
    I've got my MacBook configured to startup in Windows XP or Mac OS X. Mostly I use Mac (of course) which is where I access the internet. But I have a need to access the internet via the Windows side and it won't. I have tried the Wizard but to no avail. Has anybody any suggestions of what I need to do.

    XP is bad on security so it may try to run automatically.
    HOW TO and more is in the Boot Camp FAQ and PDF guide (access from Boot Camp Assistant as well)
    http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    Your Mac OS X DVD has a Windows /BootCamp volume that only shows up when in Windows. You can copy that to your XP system as well and run from there.

  • Firefox no longer connects to internet on my mac, and windows machines, after v18. I've tried several solutions from Mozilla support and nothing works. Firefox

    Firefox no longer connects to internet on my mac, and windows machines, after v18. I've tried several solutions from Mozilla support and nothing works. Firefox can't even connect to Mozilla for updates. Firefox just sits on the default search page and attempts to connect to websites by typing URLs, or by clicking on the links on the default search page don't work.

    You could try the following:
    * Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version)
    * Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs, then add it back. For detailed instructions, see Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet.
    Let us know if this fixed your problem!

  • I installed iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and now Internet Explorer crashes and won't run.

    I installed iTunes on my Dell PC running Windows 7 and now Internet Explorer crashes and won't run. Are there any known conflicts, or likely issues that may be causing this?
    I've rebooted, and the iTunes program seems to operate fine. I used it to upgrade my iPad's OS to 8.1.3.

    They aren't related and shouldn't affect each other.

  • Can you get and use internet explorer for mac?

    I am wondering If I can obtain and use internet explorer?

    No
    Safari or Firefox  are the optimal choices. At times Safari does not open links with smooth pagination of fonts and lettering / graphics are not clear. So I opt for Firefox. Be aware that you need to close Safari to use Firefox. It has been my experience.that if I forget to close Safari and open Firefox at same time Firefox error message says oops! We need to reset or can't open try again.

  • 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.

  • Alignment bug in Windows Internet Explorer

    Im trying to get a silly blog off the ground; I get it to display fine in Safari; Mac/Windows Firefox......but there is usually a major format bug in Windows Internet Explorer. The column on the left wants to keep shifting to the center. Can't find the cause. Any solution? Thanks;-)
    (or let me know if I managed to fix it)
    http://www.helpwithfrench.com/nitwit/Myblog/Blog/Blog.html
    thanks again;-)

    I do use iweb enhancer and massreplacit for additional code in the head and elsewhere, hmm , I'll check into that possibility.
    Of course it comes out fine on every other browser. Meantime; in iweb, the left column is placed exactly on the left edge. So Im stumped. Should I shift left, right, toward the center?? I could shift both columns to the right; so the left is in the center, and the right is on the far side; but then they might still tend to bleed over one another...hmm
    thanx
    I'll be checking the massreplacit 'post processing' as you say;-)

    Never heard of that being caused by installing iTunes. Try asking on a Windows forum. This isn't a problem with iTunes or any other Apple product. If you believe it is, uninstall iTunes. If the problem persists, you'll have to seek advice on a Windows forum or contact Microsoft for support.

  • VPN -- different behavior between Mac and Windows XP clients.

    Hi,
    Background:
    I have a Mini server serving L2TP IPSEC vpn with both Mac and Windows (all XP, so far) clients.
    The mini sits behind a Netopia router/firewall/NAT box that port forwards L2TP traffic to the mini.
    The mini has a public but unrouted address (unrouted in the public Internet, that is.) The same Netopia serves as the router for outgoing public connections. DNS is served by other servers.
    The VPN clients are distributed addresses from the unrouted public address space.
    Client <-> NAT <-> Public Cloud <-> NAT <-> Private (with public addresses) <-> Mini (VPN)
    Mac clients work happily, accessing internal and external hosts.
    The XP clients have a registry value set to allow NAT traversal:
    under HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\IPSec, AssumeUDPEncapsulationContextOnSendRule is set to 2 to allow dual Nat traversal.
    The XP clients happily access internal hosts, but hang accessing some, but not all external hosts.
    For example, most Google services are quickly displayed, whereas www.comcast.net or www.llbean.net hang. It appears to be more frequent accessing third-party hosts while processing the initial page. Some Google web services, e.g. some Google Map plugins do eventually hang.
    An XP host internal to the network configured with the above registry key set to 0 (No NAT traversal)
    exhibits the same behavior when using a VPN connection
    Public Cloud <-> NAT <-> Private (with public addresses) <-> Mini (VPN) <-> Pvt. <-> Client
    Same host without VPN works fine.
    Clearing the XP checkbox that routes all traffic to the remote (VPN) router makes external hosts work
    as you would expect.
    So my questions are:
    a) What's XP doing?
    b) Can it be fixed? (besides routing public traffic away from the VPN.)
    Thanks Jonathan
    p.s. MrHoffman, I almost asked this in the HP Forum as well, till I noticed you were here. (Assuming you are Hoff.)

    Hi soccerdude21490-
    +Is this possible?+
    Theoretically yes. However, it would be up to the school to allow you access through their network.
    The first step would be to contact the school's IT department and ask them if they will allow such a connection, and if so, could they please provide you with the settings (ip address etc.).

  • Windows Internet Explorer 7 has a Favorites feature that Firefox does not have?

    The feature which I will like to see in Firefox is the ability to type a first letter of the Bookmark that I want to get to in the listing.
    In Windows Internet Explorer 7 favorites listing, I can easily reach the part of my favorites list by typing the first letter of that part of the list I wish to reach. Obviously this makes this easier than having to scroll down to the part of the list I want using Firefox Bookmarks.

    Cor-el:
    I know you're trying to help, but your not being clear. I don't know what you are talking about. For example: How do I open the Bookmarks in the sidebar? Where is the sidebar? How do I get to the sidebar?
    Look, let me be helpful to you in your efforts to help me and others who have this question. What you need to do is tell us step by step what to do. For example, say you were telling us how to open up the Firefox browser. Here's an example of proper instructions:
    1. Press Start on your computer.
    2. Look for the Firefox Icon in the left panel and click on it.
    3. That will start the Firefox browser.
    Look, that's a simple example which, I'm sure, everyone can relate to. What's important is that you see what I mean by giving proper instructions.
    Remember Cor-el, some users do not have your level of understanding. So, you may have to assume you're talking to someone who is sort of brand new to this browser.
    Thanks for replying anyway.

  • Screen Share Mac and Windows

    Hi,
    Sometimes I'm asked to help friends and family with stuff on their computers. It would be handy if I could help them remotely but I've yet to find a way to screen share between a mac and windows machine over the internet.
    Is it possible?

    Sharing your screen with other computer users
    You can set up your computer to allow others to view your screen and control your computer. While your screen is shared with another computer, a user of the other computer sees what’s on your screen and can open, move, and close files and windows, open applications, and even restart the computer.
    To set up screen sharing:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences and click Sharing.
    Select the Screen Sharing checkbox.
    To specify who can share your screen, select one of the following:
    All users: Select this if you want to allow any user with a user account on your computer to share your screen.
    Only these users: Select this if you want to restrict screen sharing to specific users.
    Click Add + at the bottom of the Users list and select a user from Users & Groups (accounts you have set up in Accounts preferences), Network Users (users on your network), or your Address Book. Or click New Person and enter a name and password to create a sharing account. Then select that user from the list and click Select.
    Click Computer Settings and set the following options:
    Anyone may request permission to control screen: Select this to allow anyone on your network to request to share your screen.
    VNC viewers may control screen with password: Select this and enter a password that VNC viewer applications can enter in order to control your screen.
    It’s recommended that you not set a password if you only share this computer’s screen using the built-in screen sharing viewer in Mac OS X.
    For more information go to your Finder and click Help from the Menu Bar. Type in Screen Sharing in the search field.
    I use the same instructions for screen sharing betweeen a Mac running 10.6 to a Mac running 10.5 and a Mac running 10.4, so hopefully the above instructions and links will help.
