upgrade

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...

hi, I installed the FreeBSD 13 distribution from scratch on Parallels 17 for Mac. The installation apparently went well, but Gnome doesn't start. I followed this guide. There seems to be problems with GDM or DBUS and the error "Cannot rum in framebuffer mode. Please, specify busIDs." I put the...

Hello, Is it possible to install and keep active in the same time two virtual machines (one with Windows 10 and the other with Windows 11) in Parallels 17? As, in my case, Windows 10 does not update to 11 (it continues up to 22% then after restart cancels the changes and returns to Windows 10)...

Hi, I have Windows 10 Pro 21H2 (build 19044.1320) and I'm trying to upgrade to Windows 11. I have TPM 2 and what you require for the update; I downloaded the "system integrity" application and it has no problems. The update starts, restarts, then goes up to about 21 - 22% and returns to the...

hi, I activated the TPM driver in Windows 10 Pro with Parallels Desktop 17, then I tried to update to Windows 11. The update is downloaded, continues, apparently it goes, but when I restart the system is still Windows 10 Pro and on "Windows Update" it proposes to install Windows 11 again. Is...

I am trying to upgrade from Parallels 15 (home/student) for one computer to Parallels 17 for two computers. The price in UK pounds quoted is at first £79.98 including VAT but when I click "Buy Now" the page that comes up changes the price to £95. Anyone know why is it doing that? I don't want to...

This is a thread for Parallels 17 upgraders: Share any fixes or workarounds you had to figure out. Every big upgrade usually includes a few surprises. My first problem: If you don't have USB & Bluetooth sharing enabled in your virtual machine, the Parallels virtual mouse can no longer...

I received a notice that I was running an older version on the day Parallels 17 was released, so I used my active subscription to upgrade to 17. Today I received another notice that "You are running an older version. Upgrade to v17 and get more out of your Mac." I am currently using Parallels 17...

Hello, I have license for parallels desktop 11 for Mac. I have updated my computer and I have installed macOS Big Sur version 11.4 but it doesn't allow to use parallels desktop 11 for Mac and it forces me to upgrade to version 16. When I install version 16 and enter my key of version 11, it...

I have requested upgrade of license few times in last 5-7 days and still havent been able to successful upgrade. it still shows "expired" and when renewed says someone will reach out to me once payment is processed. What am I missing?

I am using Parallels Desktop for Mac *Standard* Edition (subscription to be renewed on 04/12/2020). On the parallels website, there is a "Flash bundle sale" offer (which is going to end soon) with decent discounts -- for example, in the "upgrade to newest version" option, a one-year license of...

Currently running OS X 10.10.5 and Parallels 11.2.3 Need to upgrade OS X to High Sierra and probably to Mojave right now. I have Parallels v12.1.1 and Parallels 15.1.2 upgrade versions that I purchased but never installed. I want to upgrade OS X version-by-version (ie. start with 10.11 and...

I have had Parallels Desktop for Mac for quite some time. I've upgraded a number of times. When I first got Parallels, it was to run my Boot Camp partition through Parallels. Then I decided I didn't want to commit the disk space to the separate partition so I imported to a Parallels Virtual...

I have parallels desktop 10 can I upgrade to parallels 16?

Some days ago I upgraded PD 15 on my MBP mid 2012, High Sierra (10.13.6) to 16. The upgrade process failed. To check the issue, I didn't have time. What I didn't realized because of business time constraints: PD didn't work at all anymore! Some days later I realized that my encrypted folders...

Is it possible to upgrade a quite (stone) old version to Parallels Desktop (like Parallels Desktop v4) to latest Version (one time buy - no upgrade plan). Or is there some minimal version mandatory (like v10) or a rule like only 5 versions in the past are able to upgrade? I only found...

I have a previous for Parallels 8 registered to my account, and I wanted to upgrade to Parallels 15 According to the upgrade pricing (https://www.parallels.com/uk/products/desktop/buypd8/?upg), I can upgrade for cheaper than buying a new license My question is: is that pricing fixed? Meaning...

Good morning, I am currently running Mac OS 10.13.6 and Parallels Business Edition 14.13. My license expired last week, so its time to decide the plan. I only run the game Perfect World for Windows use. In Mac life, I am mainly a PAGES user. My belief is : upgrade to OS 10.14 and to Parallels...

My colleague is planning to upgrade from v13 std to v15 pro(12-month subscription) but there are some concerns. 1. The v15 pro subscription will be purchased as a license key that can be directly used in current v13 under the same account? 2. After 1 year subscription, it will not be able to...

I am experiencing this situation after the upgrade, I hope you help me on how to reduce the space on the partition to make the computer run smoother. Thank you very much
