So I want to run IE7 on OSX 10.6 with WineBottler. I saw it was possible to run IE on Mac with WineBottler, following these instructions.
I installed WineBottler and IE7. All was looking good.
However, when I tried to open IE7 from the Applications menu, I got an error message:
"Can't find Wine. Wine is required to run this program."
I then installed wine-devel from macports (which was a bit fiddly as I hit this problem and had to update a lot of dependencies, but it did eventually build).
However, even after doing that, I'm still seeing the 'Can't find wine' error message whenever I try to open IE7 or WineBottler.
Could anyone advise? Do I need to start wine running somehow?
