There are various tools out there for running virtual machines (VMs). You'll use free software, including a full copy of Windows 10 provided for free by Microsoft. You will need at least 25GB of disk space, but 50GB is recommended to give Windows 10 space to grow over time. This guide will get you set up with a Windows 10 VM. It takes 30-40 minutes, plus the time to download a 5GB disk image. For front-end developers and quality assurance testers on Mac or Linux computers, those browsers are often tested when development is nearly finished, using a paid web app such as BrowserStack or CrossBrowserTesting aimed at visual QA more than debugging or high-fidelity UX testing.Ī Windows 10 "virtual machine" (VM) -in lay terms, think a full additional computer in an app on your computer- puts full true Microsoft browser testing at your fingertips. Internet Explorer and Edge only run on Microsoft operating systems. (Each site's audience is different, and the decision to spend time and money to make grumpy IE11 match a comp should be made with that site's traffic in mind.) But that means as many as 1 in 20 United States users could be using either IE or Edge, and that means it's well worth considering testing your site in Microsoft browsers. Not much perhaps compared to the leader Chrome (61.77% in the U.S., 49.13% worldwide) or even the runner up Safari (15.09% in the U.S., 32.38% worldwide). The first in the series is Set Up Simulator and Test iOS Mobile Safari on Mac.Īccording to one well known source of desktop browser marketshare data, in November 2018 Internet Explorer usage was at 2.8% in the United States and 5.05% worldwide Edge usage was at 2.15% in the United States and 4.25% worldwide. But it would be great to find out that, like most things Mac, this just requires some special insider knowledge to make work.This article is part of a series on running cross-browser tests directly on your primary computer. I'm assuming that the Belkin is garbage and just doesn't work. The screen is mostly blank with a few bits of the desktop appearing here and there. So the display drivers or something are all messed up. But all windows stop working on the MacBook and the screen stops updating. On the MacBook I can sort of see that it has set things to "Optimized for the Sony TV", so it sees the device and even detects its settings.
Thankfully as soon as I unplug the adapter everything is fine again. No issues there, it sees the adapter.Īs soon as I plug into the second display, I lose both the display on the MacBook and the secondary display says "Invalid Input" and shows nothing. I got the Belkin Thunderbolt (DisplayPort) to HDMI adapter and it is recognized as soon as I plug it in.
I have the latest Apple MacBook Pro Retina 15" and needed to attach it to secondary screens (often televisions.) I have a Sony Bravia here with HDMI input.
