    There is no version of WinRAR for Macs. But it's okay, because you don't actually need WinRAR to extract rar files. There's a free Mac program called Stuffit Expander that will work. In Windows, there's another program called 7-zip.

    Winrar For Apple

  • 1 decade ago

    .rar is a compressed file format, WinRar is a program that can compress and extract .rar, 7-Zip and WinZip do the same.

    You don't need WinRar, you need a Mac program that can handle .rar compressed files.

    Try RAR Expander:

    or

    UnRarX:

    No. I have a mac. The don't work. I think the operating system. the new one lets them work. But after this mac ive had for 2 years, i would never ever go back to a pc. It is impossible to get a virus, and my computer runs as fast as it does the day i opened the box. So they might work. but even if the don't get a mac, and go to the mac sotre online at at the mall and by the games from there
