Virtualbox + Network issue (I need internet explorer for work)

Hi all! I have a very strange problem. I just got a new job, and I can only add and view my worktime through internet explorer. Wine didn't help, so I installed $hitdow$ XP in a virtualbox. Even before I opened a browser or used the connection for anything, I got a virus (dl.exe in a dos cmd window), and there's no problem basically with that install disk.
Anyway the strange issue: Internet explorer after around 2-3 minutes of work says, there's no connection. I go to run/cmd and ping, and it works. Does someone have an idea, how to make IE work in wine? (aur bin32-wine-gecko didn't work, only the virtualbox solution was working yet (for 2-3 minutes), but I would be happier with a wine-based solution)

after exiting, IExplore.exe and wineserver and explorer.exe gets stuck and eats one full cpu core. it's time to create an exit bash script

I need internet explorer for mac, what should I do?

I need internet explorer for mac, what should I do?

There is no Internet Explorer for the Mac, only for Windows.
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.

The last Mac version of IE is so old it doesn't display web pages correctly. It also doesn't have ActiveX. If that's why the site requires IE, the old Mac PowerPC version of IE still wouldn't help you.
You could use Boot Camp to install Windows to its own bootable partition. Or, use VM software (Parallels, VMware, VirtualBox), and install Windows in a VM. Then you'd have Windows running inside OS X with access to IE.

I need Internet Explorer for my MBP. How can I get this?

I need Internet Explorer for my MBP. How can I get this?

You can't — at least not if you want to run it in the Mac OS. If you have Winidows installed on your Mac, then of course you can run the Windows version of IE, but the Mac version hasn't been updated since June 2003 and is unsupported by Microsoft. It's very insecure, it can't handle a lot of current web sites, and it may not run at all in recent OS X versions. It was lousy in 2003, and it can't have gotten any better while the world was passing it by.
If there's a web site you want to access that says it requires IE, complain to its webmaster about the benighted design of the site. No responsible web designer codes sites for just one browser any more. Every web site should be tested and should work well with a large variety of browsers — IE, Firefox and Chrome at a bare minimum — and every site owner should insist that their designer(s) adhere to that "best practice."

Need internet explorer for Mountain Lion

Do any one know where to find Internet Explorer for Mounain Lion?

Internet Explorer is only available for Windows, not Mac. If you have to use a webpage that requires Internet Explorer, you can use compatibility mode:
1. Go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced and tick Show Develop menu in menu bar.
2. Open Develop > User Agent and press Internet Explorer 9 (Windows).
If it doesn't help, buy Windows 7 or 8 and install it in VMware Fusion, Parallels Desktop, VirtualBox or through Apple Boot Camp

My system needs internet explorer for a application I need to down load, however I need to down load the latest yahoo tool bar for internet explorer to work properly and firefox will not allow the down load of yahoo toolbar. How do I fix this?

I have not used Internet explorer since downloading firefox and I need IE for a trading platform that I need to use. In order to get IE working I apparently need to down load the latest version of Yahoo toolbar, however when I try to down load the tool bar Firefox will not allow the down load of that file.

Thank you so much, for once in my computer life I knew what the problem was, what caused it, why it was caused, what it did, what it made it do and most importantly how to fix it and to do it correctly and expeditiously. I can not Thank You all enough for all of the help! I also have Pogo mailed this to all on my friends list, where they have all learned as I have and have fixed theirs also. and the message is being spread. Thank You again, I just can not say it enough.

I need internet explorer for mavericks

is it possible to install internet explorer on mac book air (mavericks)

It is, but you'd need to either install Windows first, using BootCamp or as a virtual machine using VMware Fusion, Parallels or Virtual Box or use CrossOver, which creates a Windows environment in which some Windows programs can run.

Internet Explorer for MAC

I need Internet explorer for my work online catalog, does IE work on Snow Leopard? What's the latest version? Thanks Alex

I've always ask to myself why Mac people are so bitter about Microsoft.
If you're saying this because of my comments regarding IE, it's because IE is well-known for not following established web standards. Among web designers, there's a saying used like a curse word: IDWIMIE. What does it mean? It Doesn't Work In Microsoft Internet Explorer. Web design would be so much simpler if IE just curled up in a corner somewhere and died.
Not all the softwares have to run in every browser out there.
Actually, the point of the web is that all web pages and web apps should work in every browser. If a "web app" only runs in IE, it's no more a web app than a Photoshop plugin is. It's a dynamic Internet Explorer plugin loaded over the internet as needed.

Need ingternet explorer for camera security only on Mackbook. how?

need internet explorer for camera security viewing and replay on Mackbook. Can/how do I do this. Safari and apple store do not support the camera viewing.

Internet Explorer has not been available for Mac for quite some time (since 5.2, I believe). Instead, go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced, and at the bottom, make sure the box is checked for "Show Develop menu in menu bar." Once it is enabled, go to Develop > User Agent, and select Internet Explorer. Hopefully that will work for you.

I need the internet explorer for my mini mac, is there any compatible to install?

There is a program at work that i need to use the internet explorer to access, but the mini mac is not compatible. Is there a way to intall a compatible Internet explorer into a Mini Mac

There are two possibilities here:
1) The program needs windows AND it needs internet explorer in order to interface with the pieces of windows that it needs. Normally a browser forms a application environment which stuff runs inside, and well-behaved applications will run pretty much in any browser on any operating system. But microsoft has other things that they have put into Internet Explorer that allow you to go THROUGH the browser and into the windows operating system below it.
2) The program has only been tested in Internet Explorer on Windows, and so that's all anyone will vouch for, but it will run just fine in other browsers and other operating systems.
If it is situation #1, then the only way to run the application is to run windows AND IE. This can be done on another computer running windows, by creating a BootCamp partition and buying and installing windows on it, or by buying and installing vmware or parallels and buying and installing a windows virtual machine on it.
If it is situation #2, what is necessary is experimentation. Try to load the application url in various and sundry browsers and various and sundry versions of those browsers on your mac. If you find a configuration that works, you can then lord it over the ignorant people who told you that it requires I.E.
Just a note if it DOES really require windows and I.E., which is that it may require some particular version or versions of windows and/or I.E. In our case, the Crystal Reports ActiveX Viewer will not load in windows 7 if running in a non-Administrator account. And our bank's online banking software won't run on I.E. 9 or 10. (I've got to watch windows update like a hawk to untick the I.E. 9 update.)

I need internet explorer 5.5 or greater in order to use an online course. I can see that there isn't a mac explorer update but is there another way? I tried the wine bottler app and it didn't work for me.

Buy and install Windows.
Then you have IE
Of course you can always do as I do when some idiot, usually with the government, tell me I need to IE. I say no. After saying no enough times they mail me a form.
I don't believe in Microsoft.

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.

I need to run internet explorer for a program I use.But can't access it is this due to running Firefox

I noticed that when I went to use Internet Explorer a few weeks ago it would say it stopped running. I thought that it was just a fluke. But when I try to download things in my MTC program they will start to download then just stop.MTC needs Internet Explorer 7 to work. And I don't like spending money on a program to find Foxfire isn't supported,or Craig's List or Windows Mail. What gets me is that Wildblue says I need to use this program and I have nothing but problems .Why does it always reset,that's dam frustrating ,reading something...BAM it's gone , Connection Reset.Can anyone help me get Internet explorer back?

When you originally downloaded the Yosemite installer it was sent to your Applications folder, it did it's thing and then deleted itself. In order to avoid that, you'd need to quit the installer before running it, copy it to a different location and then start it again to actually run the upgrade. So you'll have to download the Yosemite installer again to install it on an external.

I need internet explorer seven for my macbook. What do I do?

There is no IE for a Mac. MS hasn't had IE for the Mac for years. To us IE7 or later you would have to run Windows on your Mac:

INTERNET EXPLORER FOR MAC GUYS.

Hello,
Internet Explorer for Mac is no more compatible with OSX Lion.
Does this means no more Internet Explorer for Mac?

It does not matter, I will give get the current version of crossover, in case there are problems then I will go terminal.
Many apps like IE for Mac stop working on Lion plus there can't even be standalone GCC installed.
Current version of the cross-over? Do you really believe that IE 9 is an accurate representation of IE for Mac? That would be the equivilant of IE 5 (not even 5.5) for Windows. And in 2003 when IE for Mac was discontinued, it was done so because at that time both Firefox (at the time known as Phoenix but later changed due to copyright claim), and Safari for Mac were out. All of those browsers and later iterations can run on those old computers. And as far as browsers go, I don't think you will find many compatibility issues in code because I don't know of any modern browsers whose rendering engine broke as a result of the Lion upgrade.
