New user, how to enable VM

Hi,

I set up RC on an admin account of a 17" Imac.
I then setup a new user account and got them to log in, but they cannot access the XP VM I setup on the admin account. I should have guessed this would happen. :-)

What can I do to get the previous setup working in the new user acc.

Cheers

Mark
 
It's a permissions problem. As admin, move the .hdd and .pvs files into a shared location e.g. a directory under /Users/Shared such as Parallels.
Then as an admin, in terminal, run:
sudo chmod -R 777 /Users/Shared/Parallels
Alternatively right click the directory you moved the .hdd and .pvs files and Get Info. Then set access to Read/Write for Others.
