I use a 13" MBP (16 GB) to run a Monterey guest on a Monterey host (macOS 12.3.1) with Parallels 17.1.2 (51548). Parallel Tools are installed in the guest system. Internet access is working. I can load web pages in Safari. But when I try to connect to my Apple ID in the guest OS, I get an unspecific error message: Any ideas why and how to fix this?
This is a known limitation of the currently available macOS image, hopefully it will be resolved in a future release (this is not just you / no fix is available that I am aware of)
Case closed. I have returned my license, because my experience of virtualizing macOS on macOS on an M1 was so disfunctional: configuration https://forum.parallels.com/threads/no-config-options-at-all-shares-memory-screen.357117/ keyboard layout https://forum.parallels.com/threads/keyboard-mapping-off-for-monterey-on-monterey-on-m1.357171/ iCloud login https://forum.parallels.com/threads/icloud-authentication-fails-monterey-on-monterey-on-m1.357170/ I am under the impression that this kind of virtualization is utterly neglected, even though it has so many use cases in testing, development, security, separation of identities.

@nickcronaideP I believe this is a symptom of a known issue, apparently there is an issue in the way macOS / Parallels handles "machine serial numbers" and virtual machines - there is a KB somewhere about it. There have not been any reports of an ETA on a fix.
