When I insert a music or any other CD, it shows up in Parallels but not in OS X. Any solution for this? Thanks.
Having the same problem - but also with some USB devices, like iPods, cameras, etc. I like to leave my Parallels environment running so that I can access it via Remote Desktop Connection while traveling, but doing so impacts other folks that need to use this computer and it's devices.
On a per-CD basis, you can click the CD-icon in the lower right of the Parallels VM window, and choose "disconnect". This will give the CD back to Mac OS X for working with.
