Want to use Internet Explorer on Mac Original title: What Windows should I buy if I plan to use it on my Mac with the Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac program? I need Internet Explorer to do some contract work. I have a Mac and am trying to figure out how to run Internet Explorer on my Mac. I was told at the Apple store that I needed Parallels. Although Internet Explorer 11 comes already installed on Windows 10, if you accidentally deleted it, you can download and reinstall it by selecting one of the buttons below: Download Internet Explorer 11 (32-bit) Download Internet Explorer 11 (64-bit) Windows 8.1. I'm currently designing a website on a Mac. https://makebrown965.weebly.com/mac-blush-for-dark-skin.html. The design works fine in Chrome, Safari and Firefox. Now I'm about to test it with different versions of Internet Explorer. The problem is that I don't h. Testing across all browsers can be especially tricky for developers using Macs, even more so when it comes to testing a website on Microsoft's Internet Explorer (IE). While it happens to be a market-leading browser, IE is not available as an installable application for Mac OS X. This tip uses a free internet service from Microsoft called Modern IE, which relies on Remote Desktop to access Internet Explorer 11 from Windows but atop OS X. It’s fast, but obviously requires internet service given the reliance on remoting.
I really hate having to buy new macs every few years. Between the machines and the software it is a big investment and a whole lot of time setting things up and learning how to use it.
I usually keep my macs as long as I can. My only problem now is the browsers. Firefox, Chrome and Safari don't seems to want to support 10.5.8. At least FF and Safari run but there are some sites I visit that don't work well with those old versions and the new versions can't be installed on 10.5.8.
Any suggestions on a browser that will let my macs live a little longer?

If you haven’t heard about this cool beta, check it out here.
Basically, Microsoft are (amongst other things) offering up a free and pretty easy way for us web designers and developers to test our websites in Internet Explorer 7 – 10.
Installing using a Virtual Box for Mac
One thing the blog documentation is missing is how to install on VirtualBox for Mac, that is why I’ve written this post.
- Firstly, head over to the link above.
- Choose Mac and then VirtualBox for Mac
- Download any of the VMs you desire, I’ll use Windows Vista running IE7 as my example.
Extracting the zip
This is the first stumbling block, the default Mac Archiver doesn’t unzip the zip at the moment, Microsoft are looking at a fix, so head over to StuffitExpander or similar.
Once you’ve extracted with Stuffit (or similar), move the .ova file to a sensible location, I put mine in the Documents in a “VMs” folder. Command and conquer for mac.
Installing in VirtualBox
First time I tried to do this, I tried to mimic Microsoft’s VM Fusion demo – that doesn’t work. Luckily with VirtualBox its much simpler.
- Double-click on .ova
- It should now launch Virtual Box
- When VirtualBox launches, it will bring up the following panel, make sure you tweak the RAM settings to a minimum of 1024 MB.
- It will now probably tell you it will take thirty minutes, it didn’t for me, it took about two!
- Now boot up the VM as usual by double-clicking
- Once started up, make sure you install Guest Additions (Devices > Install Guest Additions)
- Restart the VM and you’re done.
