macos guest

Can you give me a hint, please? I created a Mac Somnus virtual machine. Made many copies. I need each copy to have a separate IP with SOCKS5. But I have no way to connect Socks there. It just drops the connection if I try to connect it there. Can you please tell me how to deal with this...

I am a developer and I need to test something on macOS v.13.4. Where can I download it and install in the Parallel's VM?

I installed Arn64 macOS in a VM. The installer didn't ask me the size of the partition / desk space. Now when I'm trying to upgrade it to the next version of macOS it tells me that there's not enough space. How do you increase it?

In a typical configuration behind a router with a ipv6 prefix /64, macOS will connect with 2 or more ipv6 addresses, a permanent "secured" address with a suffix based on the network controller's MAC address, and one more temporary addresses with random suffixes which make it harder for the MAC...

Per the title, it seems all of my VM's have a backup tab in the properties dialog - except for MacOS based VM's Seems like an omission, but if this is an intentional omission it might be better to have the tab present with an explanation

I upgraded my parallels from ~12 to v19 AND updated my computer from intel mac to M3 macbook air. Obviously none of my windows VMs work. But, I installed a brand new MacOS VM. But, when I boot the VM, none of the local mac hardware is available... most importantly the camera (other stuff would...

I'm trying to create a VM running MacOS. When I reach the stage in installation to specify the AppleID, I get an "unknown error" message. If I skip and try to install later, the field where I would enter my AppleID in settings won't accept characters. Is this a known issue? Any workarounds?

I recently created a new MacOS VM on Parallels 19 for Mac (v 19.3.0) but instead of running I get the macOS "Starting" splash screen with a spinning logo that disappears after about a minute then disappears along with the splash screen leaving the Parallels "Control Center" panel as if noting...

Hi I need to reset the password of MacOS guest on my M1 Mac. The option elsewhere in the forum to select-boot-device is not available to me in the user interface. I have tried to set this via prlctl and whilst it says it is successful it does not let me choose a recovery disk. Can anyone...

Intel macOS host: 14.4 macOS guest: 14.2.1 Parallels: 19.3.0 Updated Parallels Tools. Everything working fine. After updating the macOS guest to macOS 14.4, the login screen works, but after login, the mouse and keyboard no longer work and thus the VM is usuable. The mouse cursor does not even...

Hi guys, had this problem for a while so I thought I'd ask aorund: I am using an Apple M1 Pro as the host running MacOS 14.2.1. The VM is also a MacOS 14.2.1, but the problem has been around before this version. When I start the VM I can copy and paste between host and VM. Then I suspend and...

Hi Folks, Trying to figure out how to upgrade MacOS on my guest VMs. It says I need an extra 6gb of space freed up to do the upgrade from 13.4 to 14.3. I would really like to avoid having to recreate all of these VMs from scratch with a larger virtual drive (I'm aware that's an option). So far...

Is this possible through a manual setting? No configuration wheel exposed in Control Center, unlike other VM OS. MacOS: 14.2.1 (23C71) Parallels: Version 19.2.1 (54832)

Currently Parallels Desktop 19 for Mac Pro Edition only supports fixed disk images when adding a secondary disk to a macOS client vm. This means every time the secondary disk is used, the ENTIRE disk image is backed up by the host -- which will quickly fill up any backup storage system. Adding...

Hi, macOS VM guest seems to be sharing the host's home directory by default and there doesn't seem to be a Settings button for this type of VM. There is a "Isolate Windows from Mac" option on Windows VMs, how can I achieve the same on the macOS guest?

I tried the manual installation method of Mac OS on a. VM as I need more hard drive space and have run into the following problem. https://kb.parallels.com/en/125561 Parallels 19 pro All the steps work fins until get to "prlctl start macvm_test" I keep getting a error - The virtual machine is...

I am using a MAC Studio M2 Ultra and using Parallels 19 to create VMs. However, I am having an issue when trying to create the third VM. When I turn it on, it will turn off a previous VM. And only a maximum of two VMs can run. Does anyone have a solution for this situation?

Hello, I having an issue now with Parallels. I have Mac Studio M2 Ultra with 192GB RAM and running MacOS 14.0 but when I purchased Parallels Desktop 19. The control panel is strange, there are no function buttons in the Control Panel. I only can create a MacOS VM with the command and I can...
