    I have MS Windows 7 running on OS X 10.8.3 MBP 15" Retina. I frequently use Japanese in my work and having to switch my keyboard settings is a pain. I had recently upgraded to Parallels Desktop 8 after reading the new feature announcement regarding Multi-language Keyboard Sync. It states that "Keyboard language changes made on the Mac automatically sync in Windows to simplify switching languages." However, upon upgrading, I can't seem to find any documentation to enable this feature in Coherence. My toggling to English to Japanese Hiragana in OS X does not automatically sync the input preference to Japanese Hiragana in Windows 7 VM. Conversely, my invocation of Japanese IME on Windows do not affect the keyboard preference in OS X.

    What do I need to do to make this work?

    Thanks.
