    Delete Parallels 11 before installing 15, or just install over the top?

    I ran Parallels 11 on a 2011 iMac running Mavericks 10.9.5. There were no issues until I came to install a clone of the Mac on another 2011 iMac - my Parallels 11 licence was recognised but Parallels wouldn't activate and kept saying 'Check your internet connection' even though my internet is...

    Upgrading from Parallels 13 to Parallels 15

    I'm currently running MacOS Mojave/Parallels 13.3.2. For various reasons, I can only upgrade to Catalina, not to more recent versions of the OS. Therefore, for compatibility, it seems I need to upgrade to Parallels 15, since more recent versions of Parallels are not compatible with Catalina. I...
