    Thanks for the solution. It works! However what IS the command to re-enable after Parallels makes updates?

    I just ended up installing on an external drive and works. Nothing else would. Funny how simple it is - just use a ext. drive. My MBP has a Samsung SSD so that may have been the problem too...?

    Anyone made any progress on the USB availability? unfortunately this thread combines both, boot cam and hosted subjects. maybe a moderator can separate the 2. i am only interested in hosted USB not working in 10.11

    No, I also have the USB issue, but did not realize it right away. Yeah, that is a tough one, but I am sure the folks at Parallels will be on it soon. They get it done.

    Great news!

    I just installed Beta 2 of El Capitan, and my USB devices are now working with Parallels again...

    El Capitan Beta 2 is unfortunately not working for me. USB devices work OK in OS X, and they show up in Parallels' Devices menu, but selecting a device to assign it to the VM does not work. Parallels does not show a check mark next to the device in the Devices menu, and the VM never sees it.

    I tried both with and without the "nvram boot-args" fix, but it doesn't seem to make any difference for this particular problem.

    I'm working with an existing Windows 7 VM that I ran just fine under Parallels 10 in Yosemite.


    EDIT: Nevermind! I was actually on beta 1 - evidently you can't go directly to beta 2 without passing through beta 1. After installing the beta 2 update, things work correctly.

    I'm with you here. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could explain how to install Parallels Tools from within Terminal; currently, when I'm in the directory Volumes\Parallels Tools\ in Terminal, I can see the file list (which is Install.app, Uninstall.app, and background.png), however from within the Mac OS X GUI itself (using Finder), the Parallels Tools disc presents itself as being empty (the folder shows nothing).

    Any help here would be awesome! :) Thanks in advance (if someone can help us)!

    Before installing execute the command

    sudo nvram boot-args="rootless=0"

    then reboot VM, connect Parallels Tools image, and install Parallels Tools:

    cd /Volumes/Parallels\ Tools
    sudo open Install.app

    So, I'm just a little confused, is there a way to get Parallels 10.2.1 to recognize a prior existing Windows 7 Pro Boot Camp partition?
