Help Please! "Unable to authorize user" error message

[Alex Brand]

Hello,

I started getting a weird error today. Whenever I try to open Parallels, an error message comes up that says:

"Unable to authorize user.

The necessary authorization file could not be created because your physical hard disk is full. Free some disk space and try again."

It is very strange because I do have a lot of disk space.

The only thing that changed is that I ran Disk Utility today and fixed permissions. Maybe that has something to do?

I need my parallels running :S

Thanks!

I've had the same problem twice. Both times occurred after a Permissions Repair using Disk Utility. Both times a restart of my iMac solved the problem.
