    I have a Mac Pro on which I just installed Desktop 11. I now need to activate Desktop 11, but it wants an internet connection and that is not possible. How can I activate/register this new copy of Desktop 11? And, seriously, I cannot move the system to the internet.

    Hi @DavidR19, unfortunately, if your Mac is not connected to the Internet, you will not be able to activate Parallels Desktop. Please check out this article to know how to activate Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac.

    Thank you for replying. Would it be possible to transfer a license from a networked Mac Book Pro (already activated/registered) to the non-networked Mac Pro?

    You can transfer Parallels Desktop from one Mac to another but that Mac should be connected to the internet for completing the activation.
