When I click the maximize button now, it covers the TASK bar on the bottom. Is this an "option" that I can turn off or an "undocumented feature" Bruce

Guess the gods of computer upgrades must have taken a liking to me... I upgraded 2 computers from 3 to 4 (both running XP) and I had no issues once I fixed the right click issue in the Preferences. I like the fact that I can SHRINK the VM now. (even though that process took over an hour, I...

I am running Parallels on a MacPro and a MBP. with 4 and 2 cores and 4G of ram. Question 1: Do I want to toggle the Active Hypervisor? Is there some detailed doc on it? Question 2: How many cores do I want for Parallels. I toggle between BOTH O/S. so want great performance in BOTH...

am I the only one who LOVES the upgrade? I had problems with the right mouse click, but after fixing that in the preferences, I am a happy camper.. Using XP SP3 mostly, but also, just for shits and grins, installed vista ultimate (and found out why I hate it) and it even works OK

Thanks, that solved it... the DEFAULT for a right mouse click in the preferences was JUST a click, not CTRL click... perhaps that should be changed in the next version! Life is good now

Upgraded to V4 on 2 different MBP and the results are the same. I NO LONGER have a left mouse button. Whether using the trackpad or bluetooth mouse, all my mouse clicks in either XP or Vista are treated as a RIGHT click. Help! Bruce

I am using 3188 on MacPro with Apple Keyboard. When Light is on on CapsLock, system is lower case and visa versa. (works fine in OSX apps. if I start in lowercase in OSX, mouse into XP pressing the caps lock the 1st time is skipped, does nothing, now light is on and in lower case. then the...

it works fine with XP, NOT with VISTA. I DID use the installer to upgrade. I have enabled both global and local sharing (just to see if that helps any), did not. OK, I hate vista, still like XP! It Works! Bruce

Yes, I enabled sharing, even GLOBAL sharing to see if that worked. Did not help any.

upgraded to RC3 and just installed vista business. Most everything works fine. However, the Parallels shared folders do NOT work. Any suggestions? Bruce

I have tried using both brided and shared networking but when I try to connect to XP running on my MacPro it just times out and fails. Any suggestions? Thanks Bruce

After Reformatting my harddisk, re-installing OSX, I found out it was a BAD memory chip. You guys are good. my memory is bad. bruce

Is there any problem with the new core 2 duo's and Parallels? My MP is very happy with both build 1970 and the new beta. Running the same software on my MBP creates a BSOD every other time I try to start it. bruce

Hello, I have Parallels running win2k3 server on two computers in my office. Every machine is on the 192.168.1.0 network. no firewall, etc. and each machine can see all of the other windows (and mac) machines on the network but neither one can see the other 2k3 server. I am using bridged...

Just curious. I notice when opening task manager in windows I only see 1 CPU. Does Parallels use more than one cpu when running an o/s? (it seems pretty fast with just one so I figure that with 2 or more it should SCREAM!) Bruce

I am running server 2003. After upgrading to 1966, I kept getting msgs. that my parallels tools were not up to date. I would select install parallels tools on the vm menu, get the warning that the vm has to be running. etc. click ok then NOTHING would happen. The menu option would change to...

I followed the instruction (Resized my 21G to 64G), made a copy, booted off the copy with the origiinal disk added as 2nd hard disk. Ran DiskPart , selected the volume and when I type Expand it tells me "Disk can NOT be expanded" Help Bruce

MacPro (2) 3G processors with 4G Ram: Model: MacPro1,1 I currently am NOT limiting memory: This is reproducable and it happens when I either try to open a VM copied from my MBP or when I try to create a NEW VM. Bruce 0x46a5bd58 : 0xc8d5c5 (0x7463d84 0xc0185401 0x46a5bec8 0x740d4c8)...

Is this correct? For those of us who purchased a Mac Pro with 4 GIG we wait until there is a new build and those with 2G or less can stumble along with with this build. Am I Missing Anything? Maybe much, since I have had a couple of drinks tonight... Bruce

Now that apple was nice enough to lower the price a little, I figured I could justify the expense (1k) to help my OLD eyes. I forgot that I can have the external monitor EXTEND the desktop so when I do the following: 1). Use Pref / Display to make sure the screens are NEXT to each other...
