BenHarper, Thanks for the updated scripts, but I was actually looking for it to suspend rather than shut down the machines. How do I get it to just suspend them? Thanks again!! Eugene PS Don't worry about testing for the "resuming" state. That isn't needed.

Ben, Thank you for your quick reply. The description is hilarious. Unfortunately this script does not work for me. Here's what I did to try it: 1. Copied the first part of the script to create a suspend script: ##################################################...

Awesome! Ben - this is a great idea! I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I had a similar question. I am trying to use prlctl to suspend a VM before a SuperDuper backup and resume it after the backup is completed. I have two scripts that do these things. The first script says...

Glad to hear it. I should attribute the solution to another thread on the issue here. Hopefully Parallels is working on fixing this bug as we speak.

Found a solution. This seems to be a problem with Coherence mode. Try switching from Coherence to Window mode and then back again. Seems to solve it for me.

This problem came back and now neither reinstalling Parallels tools nor restarting helps. I'm not sure how to fix it now. A response/fix from the Parallels staff would be greatly appreciated.

I can confirm that uninstalling and reinstalling Parallels tools fixes this on the latest version of Parallels (6.0.12094) and Windows 7. The interesting part is that I did a clean installation of Windows 7 straight from Lion, so I dont see why I would need to reinstall Parallels tools, but it...

Hello all, I have a very peculiar problem. I am running Parallels Desktop 6, and AutoCAD LT 2007 and my other programs work just fine on my current virtual machine, except that it is running out of hard drive space. Resizing the virtual harddrive causes AutoCAD LT 2007 to no longer work. It...

I have a similar problem using Parallels 5. I am sharing an HP1022 connected to the VM and shared back to OSX (Snow Leopard on a late 2009 27" imac). Printing PDFs takes several minutes to start. Are there any solutions for this? Thanks, Eugene

For the past several months, my 27" iMac has been sporadically freezing and crashing with no discernible pattern (except that it happens at least once a day, usually more). Not sure what to do because I can't force a crash - it just happens without any noticeable patterns. Please help. I have...

Absolutely love PD5! Wanted to tell you guys that MacLook seems to not work with Google Chrome on Windows 7. When I run it, it looks like this: When I maximize the window to the whole screen, it disregards MacLook entirely, and shows the regular window toolbar buttons in the upper right...

Absolutely loving PD5. Just wanted to let you know that MacLook does not function too well with Google Chrome, resulting in the following image: When I try to maximize the window, the MacLook buttons (close, maximize, minimize) get ignored completely, and just the regular Chrome (Windows)...

I have the same exact problem and I dont use an external monitor. Is there any solution?

Need for Speed Underground 2 Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 Those are the only two I want! They install but when loading they crash.

Nice post I was just coming here to post about the same thing. The BIG difference for me is not so much the drop shadows (which look very good), but the fact that expose works correctly with Windows programs. This is a really cool feature. Does Parallels Desktop for Mac's Coherence 2.0 have...

Is it possible, now that we have shared networking and the ability to open Windows programs from the dock, to be able to assign certain file types to windows programs? For example, if I have a Microsoft Word document (*.doc) on my MacOSX desktop, I would like to double click it and open the...

Andrew, Thank you for responding to my suggestion. However, I think I didn't explain it well enough. That said, here goes: With the introduction of Coherence in Parallels, Windows now runs as almost an invisible layer on top of OSX. Therefore, my suggestion was to add the option to have...

I hate doing this but I never heard back from the Parallels team. Is this in the works at all? Thanks.

My system restore is enabled by default so I do not think that Parallels has any effect on it. I also have not seen any documentation to say that Parallels at all minds if you use system restore. Hope that helps!

I simply use ctrl+shift+arrow key and I have not modified any of my Virtue Desktop shortcuts
