May 18, 2007  Before you get started, you may want to check and confirm that the Windows program you want to install is in fact supported by Wine. Visit the Wine Application Database for a list of all the programs known to work in Wine, and at what level (fully supported, needs some tweaking, etc).

Installing Wine

Before you install Wine, make sure that there is no previous Wine installation on your system, either from a package or from source. If you haven't yet installed Wine, you should be fine. Many Linux distributions come with an included Wine package, but due to Wine's rapid development rate these are usually old and often broken versions. It is best to uninstall your distribution's included package versions and update to the latest Wine version available here.

Links to binary packages for Wine for some of the major distros can be found at the WineHQ downloads page. In addition, full source code is available for both the current Wine development tree and every Wine release here. For help with installing from a package or from source, please consult the Getting Wine chapter of the User's guide.

How to help get applications working in Wine

If you want to help get an application working in Wine, the first thing you should do is register yourself in the AppDB and fill out a test report, so others know what works/doesn't work. Also, be sure to vote for your favorite application so developers know where to concentrate their efforts.

If the application that you want working is not listed in the AppDB there is an easy to use form available for you to add it. If the application is in the database, but lacks a maintainer, you should consider volunteering. If you are familiar with Wine, own a legal copy of the application, and have a desire to test it, help get or keep it working, and help other users, please apply by clicking the link in the application's page. Each application should have a supermaintainer, and, if different versions of the application are substantially different (such as in Adobe Creative Suite), each subversion should have a maintainer.

If you are the developer or publisher of the application, you obviously have a very big incentive to help get your application working under Wine. Fortunately, there are many options available to you other than reporting bugs and hoping someone will fix them. By far the easiest way is to file a bug at Bugzilla, along with a small testcase to add to the Wine test suite. Another options is to send copies of your software to Wine developers and hope they'll take an interest in getting it working. An alternative option, perhaps more effective, albeit expensive, is to pay Wine developers for their work on your application, either directly through a negotiated contract or indirectly by posting a bounty. CodeWeavers, a major Wine developer, offers a special section for pledges at their compatibility center website. The most direct method, however, is to help develop Wine itself and contribute code directly, which is exactly what Corel did for !WordPerfect several years ago. In any case, making a post on the Wine developers email list can go a long way.

If your application doesn't work

If your application experiences problems in a particular area, or fails to even run at all, there are a number of steps you can take to help us. The most important thing is to find out where exactly the application is failing. To diagnose application problems, the first step is to run the program from the console using Wine, rather than from a GUI shortcut. This will allow Wine to output error messages to the console, the understanding of which are key to solving the problem and getting the application to work.

An application may not work because Wine doesn't yet fully implement one of the DLL files the application is trying to use. If you encounter a DLL not found error, or see a lot of 'FIXME:' messages while running the application in Wine, this is likely the case. When this occurs, you can try using native (non-Wine) DLL files in place of Wine's builtin ones. Check the AppDB page for the program. There may be special configuration options or instructions for installing native DLL files there that you can try to get the application working. For further configuration help, please see the Running Wine section of the User Guide.

If the application still doesn't work, it's probably due to a bug or deficiency in Wine and we'd like to hear about it. Please see the reporting bugs page for instructions on how to best report bugs with applications. Alternatively, if you're a programmer, we'd really like it if you tried to help us directly; please check out the primary Developers page and the Developer Hints if you're interested.

If your application does work, but with some difficulty

Sometimes, applications run under Wine but don't function quite as smoothly as they do in windows. They may have display errors, a feature may be broken, or they may run unusually slow. These applications should receive a lower rating from their maintainers ('bronze' or 'garbage') in the Application's Database, depending on the degree of difficulty encountered.

If you have found a way to make an application work that is more complicated than simply installing it, please share that information by posting on the application's page in the database. If you are the maintainer for the application, please post the instructions in a 'howto' which will appear inside green bars at the top of the application's page.

If your application used to work, but has since broken in a new version of Wine

Wine is a large and complex project, composed of many files written by different authors. Sometimes, an attempt to change a file and expand support for one application will unexpectedly cause another application to stop functioning. These changes are known as regressions, and they are unfortunately sometimes found in the Wine source code because the author of a patch that causes a regression is unaware of it. Since the Wine developers can't possibly test every application with every patch, we have to rely on the community to inform us of when regressions occur so that the problem can be easily identified and ultimately fixed. Without community involvement, regressions can go unfixed for potentially very long periods of time.

If your application has experienced a regression, please try and provide us with as much information as you can about when and how it broke. This allows us to isolate the exact thing we screwed up in the code and provide a fix. Please provide as much as you know about which version of Wine worked, and which version didn't, including the version number and how you installed it (from source, binary packages, etc.) Finally, please post these things in a bug.

If possible, you should also try to isolate the exact patch which broke your application. This takes quite a bit of time, but minimal effort and computer skills, and it is the best way to get your application working again. When it comes to fixing regressions, the only thing more helpful to the Wine developers than knowing exactly which patch caused a regression is receiving a fix for the patch itself. For help with isolating problem patches, please see the documentation on Regression Testing.

1 What is the difference between Wine and Darwine?

Darwine was the original effort to port Wine to Macs Running macOS and consisted of 2 major efforts.

1. PowerPC Macs - attempted to integrate QEMU into Wine for x86 CPU emulation
2. Intel x86

Wine for macOS x86 has now merged into main Wine project, here at WineHQ. Darwine is no longer actively developed.

2 What does Wine on macOS support? (DirectX, DirectSound, Direct3D..)

• Sound should be working just fine since Wine release 0.9.15.
• MIDI output (via Apple's built-in software synthesizer) works.
• 3D (OpenGL Support) works. Note that due to Apple's X11 often being outdated, we recommend you install XQuartz, available since 10.5 Leopard, which closely follows Xorg development. Since macOS 10.5.7, Apple X11 may be good and recent enough for wine 3D usage.
• Full screen mode works in a Wine release as old as 1.1.24. However, there are too many restrictions to make it generally useful:
• Unlike CodeWeaver's X server packaged with their CrossOverMac product, Apple's X11.app will not change the screen resolution. So your app must support your monitor's likely huge native resolution, e.g. 1600x1200. If your app knows only 800x600 and 1024x768, it will not start and may even crash.
• Some modern apps, although they may support your monitor's resolution during play, start with logos and intro animations that want to open a screen at 640x480 or 800x600. This will fail and may cause your application not to start at all or even crash. For instance, the game 2weistein - Das Geheimnis des roten Drachen - works well in full screen, yet the screen stays black at start, trying to display the first intro animation, while the subsequent second logo, intro movie and game logo all scale nicely to full screen.
• The X11 menu bar will remain visible at all times. The app sees a screen resolution 22 pixel less than it really is, e.g. 1600x1178.
• The dock will stay in front of the fullscreen window. Use its auto-hide feature to get rid of it.
• 'Always on top' windows remain atop Wine's fullscreen window, e.g. window #3 of the CPU% activity meter -- exactly like they do in !TimeMachine's full screen display. Just close or hide them.
• Running a Fullscreen program in a Wine Virtual Desktop window should work fine
• Starting in Xquartz 2.6.0 (available Oct-Nov 2010), RandR and resolution changing should be working on Macs.
• mcicda.dll does not work (bug #20323), so apps will not play music off CD tracks.
• Multi-CD installs work, using the `wine eject` command.
• More generally, CD-ROM support is incomplete, so Wine will not start many copy-protected apps.

3 How do I change settings?

• If you built a plain wine: run /path/to/your/wine winecfg as on any other UNIX.
• Audio output will only be enabled after you ran winecfg to configure it.

4 Where are Wine's settings stored?

In your home folder (/Users/<username>/ resp. ~/) in the hidden folder .wine. You can get into (even hidden) folders in the Finder by pressing Shift+Command+G and entering the path, for example ~/.wine.

If this is your first time with Omnisphere 2, you’re in the right place. In this article, we’ll help you navigate the plug-in, load the sample library, and show you how to work with the settings to create custom sounds. Follow the sections below to get started. Getting Started with Omnisphere 2. Jan 17, 2013  So I downloaded Omnisphere onto my 2nd Internal (Non-Startup) Drive on my Mac Pro. I opened Pro Tools and looked for it after creating an instrument track. It was not there. I suppose I need to move one of the Omnisphere folders into a Pro Tools Plug-in folder or something of the like, but I am not sure which one. Any help would be appreciated. /omnisphere-2-pro-tools-10.html. Omnisphere 2.6 includes a stunning new “Hardware Library” with over 1,600 new patches created by Eric Persing and the renowned Spectrasonics Sound Development team.

You can make the hidden folder 'visible' by creating a symbolic link: ln -s ~/.wine wine in Terminal.app.

5 How can I switch the locale?

This Wiki and other Wine documentation mention setting the environment variable LANG. This works for UNIX but deliberately does not work with Wine on MacOS for reasons enumerated in this thread. Instead, set the variable LC_MESSAGES, e.g. use LC_MESSAGES=ja_JP.UTF-8 wine japanese.exe or LC_MESSAGES=ja_JP.SJIS or LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR.UTF-8

6 Will there be a PowerPC version (or will there be a way to run Wine on a PowerPC processor)?

Darwine was the effort to port Wine to PowerPC processors. Darwine is NO LONGER ACTIVELY DEVELOPED.

7 Where can I get a working Wine for Intel Macs?

1. WineHQ builds packages for macOS 10.8 and higher.
2. You can compile wine from source with XCode and XQuartz. See macOS/Building for additional troubleshooting and directions.
3. If you are a Fink or MacPorts user, consider installing the wine or wine-devel package.
4. you can also check out the Third Party Applications page for info about other Apps that use Wine that may be much easier to use than building Wine yourself. Note that these products are not supported here, so please do not file bugs, submit AppDB test reports, or ask for help on the forum or in IRC if using one.

9 How do I right-click in Wine on macOS?

Control-click, as you're probably used to, won't work in wine (so far?). Workaround: Enable secondary click by tapping the trackpad with two fingers. Therefor go to System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Trackpad and enable 'Tap trackpad using two fingers for secondary click'. You can then do the right clicks by tapping the trackpad with two fingers.Update: if you are running a current version of Xquartz, you can go into the X11.app preferences when it's running and select what you want to be modifier keys for right and middle clicks.

10 How come my keyboard shortcuts don't work like normal

Wine by default maps the keys differently than native macOS applications.It's possible to change some of the keyboard mappings depending on the version of wine being used.

• Since Wine 1.7.4 its possible to map Option as Alt by adding the following using regedit

• Since Wine 3.17 it's possible to map Command as Ctrl meaning CMD+C/CMD+V now functions like Native applications

11 How to launch wine from terminal instead of the wine application?

To do this we need to add the wine application to the PATH variable

How To Open An Installed Program In Mac With Wine Recipe

To do that we do the following

Then copy in the following

Comment out Wine Stable uncomment out the one you want to be added for use within terminal.To save press Ctrl+X then press Enter to save the file.Now any new terminal session will have wine from available the chosen wine application for the current user.

12 How to create shortcut, launcher, or .app to start a given .exe?

12.1 Instructions on making .app file launcher

This is for real Wine, installed to /usr/local. It can be modified to work with Macports Wine.

• open up Apple's Script Editor
  • in macOS 10.6 to 10.9 this is '/Applications/Utilities/Applescript Editor.app'
  • in macOS 10.4 and 10.5 this is '/Applications/AppleScript/Script Editor.app'
  • in macOS 10.10 and up, this is '/Applications/Utilities/Script Editor.app'
• Copy and paste the following code into Script Editor:

• Edit the program per the directions in the lines that start with --
• if everything is default, you only need to edit the 'set toRun' line
• After you have edited it for your program, save it as an 'Application' (not a script) in the script editor
• this will create a .app for you that you can double click to run what you specified.

It might start up a bit slow with no visual indicators.. sometimes, be patient

12.2 Instructions on making custom launcher what invokes Terminal

• Using TextEdit create text file with following contents:

• The $HOME, in the beginning of the path, will expand to the home directory, in case of user Me, it will expand to /Users/Me
• The dot(.) in the WINEPREFIX folder will make it invisible, you can omit the dot to leave folder visible and easier to work with
• By default, wine uses /Users/YourUsername/.wine prefix, you can be creative and use other prefixes and paths to store multiple prefixes
• If you need to define other constants for wine e.g. export WINEDEBUG=fixme-d3d,warn+heap,+debugstr or export LC_ALL=ru_RU.UTF-8, add all of them before the cd command.
• If the program is inside the wine prefix, cd might look something like this: cd '$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Program Files/theprogram/'
• In case you want to use custom path to wine, you may replace `wine` on the last line with /path/to/wine/wine
• Some programs may still have trouble starting, you can try to replace `wine 'myapp.exe'` with wine start /unix '$HOME/where/is/my/app/myapp.exe'

After making all customizations, save the launcher file as regular .txt file.Next, in the Finder, click on saved launcer file, then press Command+I (Get Info) and replace the .txt with .command which is an extension that Mac OS uses for shell (and perl, Python, tcl) scripts.Alternatively, you can remove file extension altogether.

Next, you need to give launcher file executive permissions. Open the Terminal and execute chmod +x path/to/my/something, where path/to/my/something is the path to the launcher file.

• You can always change the code of the launcher by opening it with the TextEdit again. After adding changes, simply save the launcher file without renaming.

Optional: Changing the icon of the launcher file

On the macOS, it is possible to change the icon of any file to anything you desire.

NOTE: In some cases, your custom icon will not display if launcher file has extension. Refer to previous steps on how to rename the launcher.

Look into the hidden `~/.local/share/icons/` directory, where Wine keeps the icons created by application installers (.xpm and .png files); they would display on a Linux desktop.

In some cases, you will need to manually extract the icon from the .exe file. This can be done using tools like Resource Hacker. This tutorial, however, will not cover the process of doing it. It is assumed, that you have the application icon in the `.ico` or `.png` format.

Now that you have your icon file ready, open it with the Preview. In case of .ico it might have multiple frames/images inside, select appropriate one. Press Command+C (Edit>Copy). Next, in the Finder, click on the launcher file, then press Command+I (Get Info). In the top left corner of the launcher info, there will be a small image showing current icon, click on it to highlight it. Press Command+V to paste your icon.If everything goes well, the icon of your launcher will change.

13 Why is it building font metrics? This may take some time..

Actually, there are two bugs involved:

1. Bug #17674 'wine recaching font metrics on every run', consuming upto 30 seconds at program start. This is fixed in wine-1.1.31.
2. However, there is no need to cache font metrics at all as Wine should find a !FreeType library greater than 2.0.5 because one is included in MacOS. If your Wine exhibits this problem, you probably need to set the DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable before launching Wine.

Start wine (in a Terminal) as follows:

or

You may patch the main wine launcher yourself and forget about this variable. Save this patch file, then invoke patch -p1 < mypatch.txt in a Terminal, while at the top of Wine's source directory, see macOS/Building.

Both MacPorts and Fink use a wrapper to the wine launcher which sets exactly this variable.

14 If I have a problem with Darwine on macOS, where should I report the bug?

Since

How To Open An Installed Program In Mac With Wine Vinegar

• Darwine is a separate project with different licensing terms from Wine (GPL vs. LGPL),
• it's not clear what kind of patches they apply on top of Wine,
• the fact that they insist on a different name,

- report all bugs to Darwine developers.

15 How do I switch between the Mac/X11 drivers?

As of 1.5.28, the Mac driver is the default driver. If on an older release, you can force using the Mac driver by either:

Or by editing the registry key 'graphics' under HKCUSoftwareWineDrivers. It should specify the load order, e.g., 'mac,x11'
