Internet Explorer For Mac 9

 

This detailed guide will take you every step of the way through installing Internet Explorer 9 on your Mac – using nothing but free software.

So here’s what you need to do to install Internet Explorer for Mac: 1. Download VirtualBox if you don’t have it already. Choose what version of Internet Explorer to install. Then type the following commands in your terminal window: Install ALL versions of Internet Explorer: IE 6, IE 7, IE 8, IE 9,?IE 10 and IE 11. Internet explorer free download - Internet Explorer, Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer, Adblock Plus for Internet Explorer, and many more programs.

Important: There are a couple of things you should know before you undertake this (quite easy, albeit lengthy) endeavor. You will require approximately 26GB (yes, gigabytes) of free space in order to install IE 9 using the method outlined below. Once the installation is complete, you’ll be able to delete all of the files required for the set up, but you’ll still be using approximately 13GB of disk space to run IE 9.

The installation involves downloading 13+GB of data – so you may want to run the initial download overnight, depending on the speed of your Internet connection.

It’s also worth mentioning that while there are other methods to install Internet Explorer on your Mac, this is the only one that I have found to consistently run IE 9 correctly (no crashing, no problems rendering web pages etc). If the above requirements don’t scare you off, here are the steps to install IE 9 on your Mac.

  1. The first thing you’ll need to do is install VirtualBox, if you don’t have it installed on your Mac already. Head over to the VirtualBox download page and download VirtualBox for OS X. The installation is very straight forward – run the installer package and click ‘Next’ a bunch of times. Once completed, don’t open VirtualBox, just proceed to the next step.
  2. Open up a Terminal by navigating to Applications ->Utilities ->Terminal. From the prompt, enter the following command:

    curl -s https://raw.github.com/xdissent/ievms/master/ievms.sh | IEVMS_VERSIONS=”9″ bash

    and hit Enter.

  3. This is where you’ll want to take a long break. Your Mac is now downloading approximately 13GB of data.
  4. You can check on the status once in a while but it’s about as entertaining as watching paint dry.
  5. After the download has finished, the files will be processed.
  6. When you see Done! in the Terminal window and are returned to the command prompt, you’re finished with the time consuming part. Leave the Terminal window open – we’ll be using it later to delete the unnecessary files.
  7. Now open VirtualBox from your Applications folder. If you’re prompted to download an update, click the Download button. If you’re not, skip down to step #14.
  8. Again, click the Download button.
  9. Now click the Install button.
  10. If prompted, click Upgrade.
  11. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the VirtualBox License window (the I Agree button won’t be ‘clickable’ until you do). Click I Agree.
  12. Enter your password when prompted.
  13. Finally, click OK.
  14. Select IE9 (clean) from the column on the left side of the VirtualBox window. Note: you may also see an entry titled ‘IE9 Inaccessible’ – ignore it. Now click the Settings button from the Toolbar.
  15. Click the System tab from the top menu. Select Motherboard from the secondary menu. Use the ‘slider’ to increase the Base Memory: level. Assuming your Mac has at least 2GB of RAM, I would suggest increasing the Base Memory to 1024MB. Your VirtualBox (IE 9) will run quite slowly if you use much less than 1024MB of memory. Click OK when you’re done.
  16. With IE9 (clean) still selected, click the Start button.
  17. VirtualBox will now explain how the Auto capture keyboard feature works. Read this message carefully. In a nutshell it amounts to this – use the left command key on your keyboard to ‘release’ your keyboard and mouse from the virtual machine (IE 9). Click OK.
  18. Windows will now boot.
  19. If a mouse pointer integration message appears, ignore it and click OK.
  20. Once Windows finishes setting itself up and boots, select the Administrator ‘button’. Note:NOT the “Admin” user. Use the password: Password1

    Note: the password is case sensitive – the P in Password1 must be capitalized.

  21. Now you’ll sign into Windows.
  22. The Windows Activation window will appear. Click Ask me later. You’ll be presented with this screen every time you launch your IE 9 Virtual Machine – click Ask me later every time.
  23. You will have a complete Windows 7 working environment, including Internet Explorer 9.
  24. Now you can test out web sites in IE 9, access those “Internet Explorer only” sites etc.
  25. Bring that Terminal window back up. Enter the command:

    cd .ievms

  26. Now enter the following commands, one at a time:

    cd vhd
    cd IE9
    rm *.rar
    rm *.exe
    ls

    After entering the “ls” command, you should see two files (and only two files) – Windows 7.vhd and Windows 7.vcm.

  27. That will have cleared up about 13GB of hard drive space, leaving only the files required to run Windows 7 and IE 9. You can quit the Terminal now – you’re done!

One of the stated goals of the Internet Explorer 5 Macintosh Edition team was to deliver complete support for CSS-1 and HTML 4, which would be an historic achievement – and something The Web Standards Project and its thousands of members have been asking browser makers to do. That was certainly my main interest in participating in the Internet Explorer 5 beta program. I wanted to see these standards implemented, and help if I could.

The greatest improvement over Internet Explorer 5 – and any other browser I’ve used – is in the support for web standards. First of all, without standards, the web would break. People would be unable to access certain sites, developers would go nuts trying to implement workarounds, companies without deep pockets would be unable to participate because they could not afford all the workarounds and alternate versions required. So standards are key for all who use or build the web.

But Mac users have been especially disadvantaged in the past, when poor web authoring led to pages full of unreadable type – pages that were readable in Windows, but not on Macs and some other operating systems.

Internet Explorer 5 Macintosh Edition solves these problems by correctly implementing HTML 4 and Cascading Style Sheets Level 1, by removing cross-platform incompatibilities between font sizes, and by the significant innovation of Text Zooming, which puts the viewer totally in charge. With Internet Explorer 5, I can read any website, even if it was authored by someone who didn’t know what they were doing. And when the designer does know what s/he’s doing, the site displays exactly as it’s supposed to. (In fact, the designer can tell the browser exactly how to interpret the code – strictly or loosely, standards-conformant or backward-compatible.)

There’s a lot to like on the surface, and that’s what most people will notice. But my favorite features are under the hood: proper rendering of HTML and Style Sheets, the Text Zoom feature that lets me read any page comfortably no matter how it was coded, stuff that geeks and designers can appreciate – but that benefits anyone, regardless of their “expertise” in using the web. As a designer, I like that my sites come out the way I created them. As a user, I like that I’m in charge. (Even as a designer, I believe the person who uses the site is supposed to be in charge.)

I would suggest this browser to any Mac user. In fact, I’d recommend it to anybody, because I believe it is the most standards-conformant browser released by any company so far, on any computing platform. It’s a win for designers and a win for people who use the web. And that is a first.
