    I just upgraded from Parallels 6 for Mac to version 7 because I have Lion and want to start using Windows 7. I've had a pvm for years that has a 32-bit version of Windows XP installed. I went ahead and purchased a 64-bit version of Windows 7. I didn't think you could upgrade a 32-bit version of XP to a 64-bit version of Windows 7, so I just went ahead and set up a new pvm with Windows 7. The question now is how I can move some of my applications in my XP pvm to my Windows 7 pvm...primarily Office and a couple Adobe applications. Is it possible and, if so, how do I go about it?

    It is not possible to move any installation - the only way is to reinstall it from the scratch.
