Where/How do I get Internet Explorer for MAC OS 10.8.2?

Unfortunately no, you can make a change in Safari to allow it to appear to be IE to the website but if any Windows specific services (such as Active X) are needed it still won't work.
If you absolutely must have IE you should install Windows, preferably in a Virtual Machine, like Parallels.

  • How do I get internet explorer

    How do I get internet explorer for MAC.  I am only able to access a military site for work via IE.

    IE for Mac hasn't existed since OS9 days.  I think there are some browsers that will fake their identity, telling web sites that they are IE when they are really something else.  The site may then work providing it doesn't really, really need IE.  I don't have a list in front of me but browse the web for something like browser emulation (user agent).
    Here's an older tip for Safari

  • Internet Explorer for Mac 5.1 or higher

    Please direct me to where/How I can download internet explorer for my macbook OSX

    Given that the last time Microsoft even pretended to support IE/Mac was when the US federal budget still claimed to run a surplus, I infer the only reason to use IE/Mac instead of Safari, Firefox, Camino, or Opera et al. is that some site you need to access requires IE.
    Bear in mind that if such a site makes use of ActiveX controls, it won't matter if you try IE/Mac; ActiveX is Windows only. However, a large number of sites that require IE do so because the site's programmers were too busy and/or lazy to check their coding was HTML-compliant and work with other browsers. A cheap shortcut to testing the code is to have the site check the browser the visitor is using and refuse anything other than the browser the developer used.
    That can be bypassed by having the visitor's browser report that it's actually another browser and even another platform. That can be done by telling the browser to report it's "user agent" identity to be something else, such as IE5/Mac or IE6/Windows (the latter is probably more useful).
    You can set the User Agent in Safari by unlocking the Debug Menu. To enable Safari’s Debug Menu, open Applications> Utilities> Terminal when Safari is closed and enter:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
    Restart Safari to see the Debug Menu.
    Set the User Agent to the desired state just before attempting to go to the site for which you need IE/Mac.
    p.s. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!

    How or where do I download Internet Explorer for Mac OS 10.7.5?

    Internet Explorer is only supported on Windows, so you can't use it on OS X. There are a lot of browsers like Safari, Firefox or Chrome for Mac, so try them. If you need Internet Explorer, you have to install Windows on your computer. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3321

    how do i get internet explorer on my iMac

    If all you want  to do is use IE because some sites insists on it then what is suggested above may work, i.e, change the user agent to make the site think you are using IE.  Most browsers support that feature either directly as in Safari or with add-on/extensions.  The only things that may go wrong is some drawing or a few other things may not work properly  if the site uses some non-standard IE-only html conventions.  My opinion of that is if a web site is going to take that kind of windows-centric attitude in this day and age of multiple browsers then screw 'em.

  • 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?

    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.

  • 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.

  • Is there internet explorer for mac?

    Is there Internet Explorer for mac?

    If the developers of the site insisted on using Microsoft-proprietary technology such that the site requires Internet Explorer, then your only solution will be to run Windows on your Mac, either via Boot Camp or one of the virtualization solutions (Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion, or VirtualBox) so you can run the Windows version of IE. There is no IE for Mac any more, hasn't been for years, and almost certainly is not coming back.
    I run Windows on my system and it works fine; no "pollution" has occurred. In circumstances like this, it's often the only, or at least optimal, solution.
    company who makes the program now has a iPad APP.  Why put the money into an app but not have it available on safari.
    You'd have to ask that company that question. It seems odd to me as well, but they obviously have a business reason for their decision.
    Regards.

  • How can I get internet explorer on my macbook pro?

    How can I install internet explorer on my macbook pro? Thanks!

    Install Windows 7 into a virtual machine program (IE comes with it), I suggest VirtualBox as it's free and gets updates for near forever. However VMFusion and Parallels has more features but then to drop you if you don't upgrade OS X.
    Windows in BootCamp or Virtual Machine?

  • How do I get Internet Explorer on my Macbook Pro?

    I need to get on a website for work and it can only be run through internet explorer. Trust me, I know this *****, but I don't know how to get around it. So I need to find a way to get Internet Explorer on my Macbook Pro.

    You run it through Windows or CrossOver Mac. The Mac OS X version of Windows Explorer doesn't work in 10.7 and won't be updated to do so or patch security holes.

  • Preview in browser internet explorer for mac

    I use a Mac running Leopard and use Safari as my web browser.
    When I try to "preview in browser" in DW, Internet explorer is not
    available. Can I run it on mac and where do a get a compatible
    version--and preferably without spending a lot of $.

    internet explorer for the mac hasn't been supported by MS for
    years. Honestly, it's not worth even looking at it.
    To view your work in IE for win users, consider getting
    something like VMWare Fusion or Parallels or just simply using
    BootCamp (which comes with Leopard), to install Windows XP/Vista
    onto your Mac.

  • 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.

  • How or where can I obtain, purchase or download Internet Explorer for Mac?

    I need to run a program on Internet Explorer. Where can I obtain, purchase or download IE for my Mac desktop computer?

    Running IE in a virtual environment would be an option.
    Software like VMware Fusion or Parallels do the trick.
    But you would need a valid Windows license or just run a limited demo for a couple of days.
    Goodluck

  • HT1222 How can I get Internet Explore 6 for Mac

    Dear Friends
    Happy New Year to you all
    I need Internet Explore 6 to instal in my mac book pro how can I get it installed

    If some website is saying you need IE 6, try this:
    Enable the Develop Menu in Safari Preferences.
    Then choose one of the IE user Agents. Then try the site again.
    This won't work with a site that is programmed to use only ActiveX controls.

  • How do you get Internet Explorer 9 from shutting down while trying to print from Smart Print button?

    I'm using Internet Explorer 9, and have the latest Smart Print button on my Bing Bar.  When I click on Smart Print to print a page, it lets me go through the entire process of choosing what I want to print, and lets me click on print, which brings me to the print options, but when I click on the final print button, I get a Microsoft error message saying "Internet Explorer has stopped working" message and it closes down my opened page.  How do I print if I keep getting this message?

    Yes, it indeed boggles the mind.  I'm of course referring to the fact that your post concerns Verizon Wireless products and services.  This forum is dedicated exclusively to Verizon Communications services.   As you probably know, Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications operate as separate companies.
    If you need help for a Verizon wireless product or service, it's best to direct questions to the Verizon Wireless forums.  You can reach them by clicking on "Wireless" (either here or at the top of the page).
    Good luck and I sincerely hope you get your issue resolved.
