unable to connect to Parallels Service

[CharlesC]

I get this error message approximately half the time when I start Parallels 7. It refers me to http://kp.parallels.com/en/8089, which has been of no help.

Can anyone please help?

Hello. You can try these steps:
1. Reinstall Parallels Desktop, restart MAC
2. Uninstall McAfee, or other Antiviruses, stop firewall
3. Troubleshoot "Unable to connect to Parallels Desktop" error:

Restart MAC
4. Workaround resolution to start Parallels Dispatcher:
