Is Parallels 6 compatible with OSX Lion?

Compatible?

It may be officially compatible, but it's kind of buggy. Among other things, it pollutes the Launchpad space with thousands of links to Windows programs, rendering the feature pretty much useless. There is apparently no way to get rid of the links.

You'd have thought they would had picked up that glaring error sometime during the beta.

The update with our latest build addresses the issue w/ Launchpad: http://kb.parallels.com/en/111612

Also, our Engineering team is actively working to address this list of known issues: http://kb.parallels.com/en/111614
 
Hello, I'm having the same problem. Before I used the OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard with DP 5 and everything worked properly. Yesterday I upgraded to OSX 10.7 Lion and then upgraded to DP 6 and now I have the same error message. See the attach files. Please is urgent!!



I upgraded to Lion GM last night. Parallels will NOT run on it. It complains:

"Your virtual machine may run slow because virtualization support is disabled on your Mac. For optimal support, please enable hardware virtualization support in your Mac's firmware."

After a number of similar messages it quits.
This is running the newest macbook pro quadcore i7.

Hello,

Messages about Parallels Driver and Hardware Virtualization must not be shown in the latest PD6 build (12094 at the moment).

You could check build number using menu item Parallels Desktop -> About Parallels Desktop.

If it is 12094 but error is shown - try reinstall PD.
If reinstall doesn't help you - generate Problem Report (Help->Report a Problem...) and give me Report ID number (post in this thread). Issue will be passed to development team then.

Thank you.
