Following the advice on this forum, I've been able to connect to a MAMP installation from XP using Bonjour 1.05. From any browser in XP I can see the sites on MAMP via 'macbook.local.' Very nice, indeed. However, I'm having no such luck connecting to the mySQL instance MAMP runs. From the...

Hi, John. I am not running an anti-virus software. Is there a log I can send you? Perhaps a debug version I can run that collects information? It seems that we're running out of options.

Hi, John. I did both of those things. I made sure PT was in startup (it wasn't) and manually started it, too. I get one copy and paste and that's it. When I shut down XP just now, it delayed a little for the Clipboard Syncro service to shut down, so I know it's running. It just isn't...

There is nothing under the application log at all related to Parallels Tools. Under the System Log I see: 1:02:15 pm The Parallels Tools Utility Service service entered the stopped state. 1:02:15 pm The Parallels Tools Utility Service service was successfully sent a stop control...

Hi, John. No, the parallels tool is not in the tray (I just clicked 'next' during the install process). And I'm not running any clipboard software in OS X. Should I put parallels tools in the tray? Do you have instructions for that? Thanks, Andre'

I copied some text in XP, pasted it somewhere. That worked. Went to OS X, copied some text, pasted in XP and it pasted the previous XP text, not the new OS X text.

Hi, John. Just reinstalled and tested. Still copies old contents of clipboard into XP.

Hi, everyone. I'm running build 5608 on 10.5.4. I can't seem to paste the clipboard from OS X into Windows XP (service pack 3) more than once per session and sometime not even that. Logging out and back in doesn't help; restarting the virtual machine doesn't (always) help; restarting...

I reformatted my hard drive, upgraded to (10.5.2) and have restored my virtual machines under parallels 3.0. When I boot the Windows XP image, I receive the error: Error loading operating system My Vista image is opening with no trouble. I've tried deleting my .mem and .sav files, same...

Thank you. I missed that and will give it a try.

Hi, robinchee. Are you saying that you are using the shared folder feature in Vista (not the map network drive method described in post #26)? If so, then I'm confused: why did you re-print the mapping tip ("Shared Folders don't work")? If you have a way to get shared folders to work, by all...

Well, not exactly. Sharing using the network mapping system, to my understanding, is distinct from the sharing folders feature that Parallels provides. They are two separate methods to share files and one of them, the bonus Parallels way, isn't currently working.

Hi, all. Has anyone been able to figure out how to print through Vista RC1? Using build 5600 of Vista (RC) and Parallels build 1898 (RC) and 10.4.7, I've tried: 1. Installing Bonjour 1.03. The good news is that it installs with no trouble and sees the printers I have shared through OS...

Shut Down Button is Sometimes A Shutdown Button I'm not sure in which cases it is, but you might dig through all those menus (as I did) to find that the button is sometimes configured for shutdown instead of sleep. I'm running build 5600 on a mac mini. Others have had their button default to...

Ypup, that was it The missing sound card was exactly the problem. I created a new vm, re-installed xp and voila, I had sound. I figured that making a new vm would be ultimately better than continuing with the old one. Thanks everyone for all your help. -Andre'

More Info Thanks for suggesting places to look. I went back to see what Parallels supports by way of sound and it's supposed to have a AC'97 compatible sound card. A quick look in the control panel showed that there is no sound card being emulated. One thing that springs to mind is...

Hi, I'm running parallels workstation (Beta4) on a Mac Mini and can't seem to get sound through a windows media stream. Is anyone getting full sound? With browser-embedded streams? -Andre'
