    Please deactivate my existing Parallells installations so that I may reinstall on a new MacBook. I am running High Sierra 10.13.6. Thanks

    We see that you have Parallels Desktop 10 in your account which is not compatible with High Sierra.

    I got rid of my old mac and did not deactivate it beforehand. When I try to activate it on my new Mac, I do not get the option to "Activate on This Mac".
    1. When I click activate I get the popup message
    2. When I click buy it takes me to the website
    3. I'm running Mojave 10.14.1 on a Mac Pro (5,1)
    4. Trying to activate Parallels 12
    Feels like im missing the primary option. Please help.

    Thanks,
    .dan.
