I understand that ActiveX is a Microsoft product and was widely used with Internet Explorer and Windows. I have a Mac running El Capitan. I have a Mediasmart server at home running Windows Home Server 2011. Unfortunately, to have remote web access to the server, it requires either a Windows computer or a Mac running a virtual environment. I have tried Safari using develop/user agent and Internet Explorer and it doesn't work. I have tried FF with IE Tab extension and it doesn't work. I tried using Winebottler but I get a crash message when it is installing IE 6. Finally, I tried using Parallels 10 and it does work, somewhat, but I don't want to use Parallels each and everytime I want to login to WHS 2011.

Download free Adobe Flash Player software for your Windows, Mac OS, and Unix-based devices to enjoy stunning audio/video playback, and exciting gameplay. If you don’t need ActiveX support, the simplest way to get IE or Edge on your Mac is to simulate them in your current browser such as Chrome, Safari or Firefox. This can easily be done by changing the “user agent” settings in your browser so that the site thinks you’re using Internet Explorer even though, you’re using Chrome, Firefox. In most cases, you won't be able to use Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or any other privately owned browser such as these. In order to view your cameras on any computer, you need to initially enable all aspects of the ActiveX plugin and for now, Internet Explorer is the only browser that consistently allows for this in it's entirety. Double-click the downloaded Mac ActiveX download in the 'Downloads' window (or double-click the desktop icon) to launch the installation. Step 4 Follow the installation prompts to complete the ActiveX setup. References & resources MacTech: ActiveX PTF: ActiveX Manager Share this article.

How can I fix this so I can access the server directly from the Mac itself?
