I think this message indicates that Parallels Tools is not installed. (If you have installed PT, be sure to restart windows). If you need to install Parallels Tools, you can do this from the Actions Menu.

Update: I shut down the Windows VM. Then shut down Parallels. Then shut down my Mac. Started Mac. Opened Parallels. Started Windows 10. In the Actions Menu, choose Reinstall Parallels Tools. Look for a small warning box at the bottom right in Windows 10 asking what you want to do. I can't...

Sorry I cannot help, but I have the same issue. Parallels Tools installation hung at 32%, and I waited an hour.

It seems there would be two options in tracking this down. 1) It's a Mac Problem. 2) It's a Parallels or Windows Problem. Because of how critical this is to me I have been working both angles. Evidence for Parallels: It occurs when running Parallels. No Mac apps affected. Evidence for Mac...

I recently upgraded to Parallels 5. It worked OK until I installed the latest Windows XP update. At that point, I began getting "Unable to Access Disk 1". I ran a disk verification using Disk Utility and it said the Node Structure was damaged and could not be repaired. I searched the forums...

This happened to me. After force-quitting to get out of the hang, I went into Parallels but did not start the VM. I clicked Help/Check for Updates. This also caused a hang. So in this forum, go to announcements, and click on the post announcing the upgrade. Click on the link. You will have...

Sorry I can't help, but I have Quicken 2008 running in an XP machine.

Not a solution, but maybe a temporary workaround until this is fixed... If you are running Parallels VM in its own space, run it in Windowed mode with a large window.

I think first you will want to export the photos from iPhoto to a folder on your desktop (or to a shared folder). Directions for shared folder setup are in the parallels documentation. You will have a folder that you can see on both the windows side and the Mac side.

You could also do two separate VM's, one with IE6 and one with IE7. That might be better for testing since that is how your users might be configured. Clone your current VM and install IE7 in the clone.

Set up printer sharing on one of your Mac's. Then use Bonjour for Windows from within your VM to see that printer through the Mac, then print to the Mac printer. That way, the Mac provides the drivers. There may be a more elegant solution, but at least this should work.

The best thing I have found is to go back to your last good backup of the hdd file.

I am on the current beta and find it to be more stable than the previous betas. If you want more detail, go to the top level of these forums, then scroll to the bottom of the page. There you will find the Beta forums, and you can hear from people that are still reporting issues.

To do this, Open Time Machine. Navigate in the file manager to the file or folder you would like to delete. Click once to select it. Now, in the file manager view, click on the "gear" icon to see a dropdown list of actions. Click on "Delete All backups of ..." I haven't played with this...

Time Machine saves the entire changed file.

I have changed my process once again, and I wanted to come back here and update. I was getting unstable results by turning Time Machine on and off. I am now excluding Parallels from Time Machine and leaving Time Machine on all the time. When I get to a point where I need a Parallels backup, I...

I have decided to continue using Time Machine, but I have changed my process. I disable Time Machine before starting Parallels. I then do my work on Windows. When I exit Windows and Parallels, I turn Time Machine back on. That way I get a backup of the changed VM, but I don't confuse Time...

I think that through coherence, you can set .doc files to open in the Mac application (Pages).

I am now sold on Time Machine. When I started up Parallels today, it prompted my to start from scratch, create a VM and install Windows. I found the pvs file, and clicked on it. The VM was corrupted and caused the whole MAC to crash with the blue curtain of death. Some Parallels driver was...

That is not the way Time Machine works. It saves hourly backups from today. Then 4 backups from yesterday, then 1 per day before that. I have a 1 Terabyte Time Machine Partition, and it does not seem to be rapidly filling up.
