Ok so I am new to Mac's ( just got my first one Thursday its a Macbook Pro) and know nothing about how they work or anything. That being said I have been using MT4 for over a year now and I got it working on this Mac in less than 30 minutes.

I was going to buy Parallels based on the reviews I read but was very hesitant at the $80 price tag. Plus MT4 and Internet explorer are really the only reasons I wanted windows on the Mac anyway. So I tried Virtual Box instead first since it is free, I figured why not try that and if It does not work then I can buy Parallels. Well I am happy to say that virtual box works like a charm! Very easy to set up , it is pretty much idiot proof it walks you through everything step by step. I know putting windows on a Mac kind of goes against having a Mac but until they come out with MT for Macs it works great for me.

So if you want MT4 on your Mac just get a copy of windows ( easily found online if you know where to look) and get virtual box and you should be good to go!

i have a little problem using wineskin for MT4.
On the pending order, the default setting is the PO will be expired in 7 hours, even I have unchecked the expiry tab, it always closed my PO 7 hours later, so I have to change the expiry date to year 2013.
Are there any users have this same issue?

I run MT4 on VMware and cannot clone objects (normally it's dbl-click on the object, then ctrl-click and drag the object). Anyone knows how to do it on VMware or if there is an alternative procedure on MT4?

15 years later and MT4 still can't run on Ios. Did they forget to fix the problems or just don't care about Mac users. MT4 mobile works but why not on Ios? Very frustrating and I'm starting to think Ios is not compatible with MT4 spyware unlike Windows where you can get garbage for free. Even noticed MT4 webtrader infected with adware and not usable. Metaquotes should get their sh*t together! Installing backdoors on Ios is not the solution I'm looking for.

They don't care.

you can install it, what broker did not work for you? you can use any broker MT4 version with any other broker too, simple add the server for this inside metatrader.
sometimes depends on your Mac OS maybe. i dont have the last version.

or you Speak about IOS ? there is a metatrader4 app in the app store for iphone and ipad. but without expert advisor support.

Thank you, downloading original from Metatrader4.com seems to be working while the app from my broker doesn't. Much appreciate.
