yeah it used to work but now it doesn't. and my desktop says "active desktop recovery" so i have to restore my active desktop when i launch it. sometimes when i open it the screen just freezes on the windows background and no folders show up. please help!
I think you need to provide a more detailed description of what is happening and also such info as which version of Parallels, which OS X, which version of Windows and what your hardware is. Phil
another thing i noticed is that all the desktop icons are highlighted and i can't get just a single one to highlight on its own. am using a macbook pro with 2 gigs of ram

which desktop? windows or Mac OS? I never had the problem I would reinstall parallels tools then drag a jpg from Mac OS desk top to Windows desktop this used to call a dialog box saying "do you want drag and drop switched on" also check the file sharing menu P DT >> devices >> Shared Folders >> Add I just select all drives and the whole mac os desk top for sharing that selection error suggest you might need to reboot Hugh W
thank you. reinstalled parallel tools and it is fixed. does parallels tools take up a lot of disk space?
it does not matter an essential part of the instalation with the customised drivers if windows ever thows a "found new hardware" before tools have been installed always cancel get an external la Cie firewire disk for all back ups and clone your VM once a week there try and keep your macintosh HD always with 20% free space and all apps will run better just now running in Windows http://onecare.live.com/ the gratis check by MS which always finds and fixes windows registry errors 13% fragmented so on a defrag too just good house keeping for an MS system Hugh W
