    I downloaded Parallels Desktop for Mac Pro Edition after using the free trial version, however as I try to activate to the pro edition it asks for the previous key that cannot be found anywhere. I checked products and the primary key seems to be the Pro edition one only.

    I purchased the parallels desktop for Mac yesterday but as I tried to activate it from the trial version, it asked for the old key and I was not able to find the old key. My purchase order number is 241172611

    Hello, did you use Parallels Desktop before? (or only used the trial version?)

    Hi. Please help! "you have entered an upgrade key. Please confirm it with a key from the previous edition". Old version key is not accepted.

    In this case you need to purchase the full version. We can provide you with the refund for the wrong purchased Upgrade version.
