    I'm moving my Parallels from an older Mac to a new Mini. I can't figure out how to copy my HDD (disk image) from my old system to my new. Anyone have any success with this?

    Hello Kyle.restoule,

    You should just copy your virtual machine folder on any data storage, then paste it on the Mac Mini. Uninstall Parallels on the old Mac and install on Mini, use your old key to activate.

    Best regards,

    Thanks for the tip - this is what I initially tried and it did not work. I did figure it out though: I did a "clone" of my VM and moved that to the new Mini. That worked flawlessly.

    Thanks again!
