Why Won’t Wix Work on My Mac?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 2:07 am

If you’re a Mac user, you may have noticed that Wix doesn’t work as well on your computer as it does on a PC. There are a few reasons for this. First, Wix is a flash-based website builder, and Apple’s Safari browser doesn’t support Flash. This means that you can’t use all of the features of Wix on a Mac.

PRO TIP: If you’re using a Mac, you may have noticed that Wix doesn’t work as smoothly as it does on a PC. There are a few reasons for this:

GREAT NEWS:

Exciting update! We've collaborated with Wix to offer WBI users with a free plan for all website creation needs - Explore the details here.

1. Wix is a Flash-based website builder, and Flash isn’t supported on Apple’s mobile devices (iPhone and iPad). This means that you won’t be able to edit your site on the go, or view it properly on an iPhone or iPad.

2. Safari, the default web browser for Mac, doesn’t support Flash. This means that you’ll need to use another browser like Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox to edit and view your Wix site.

3. Some features of Wix (like the full-screen video background) only work in specific browsers like Google Chrome. So if you’re using Safari, you might not be able to see all the features that Wix has to offer.

4. Some older versions of Mac OS don’t support Flash Player, which is required to use Wix. If you’re using an older Mac, you’ll need to upgrade to a newer version of the operating system in order to use Wix.

Second, Wix is designed for Windows, so some of the features don’t work properly on a Mac. Finally, Wix doesn’t work with all of the browsers available for Mac. So if you’re using a browser other than Safari, you may not be able to use all of the features of Wix.

If you’re looking for an alternative to Wix, there are plenty of options available. Weebly, Squarespace, and WordPress are all popular choices.
