    Ive got 2 licenses for Parallels one 7 and one 8.

    I had these on 2 machines that have now hard clean installs wiping the HD so both version are no longer installed. Ive now updated one of the machines to OSX Yosemite and as ive read online Parallels 8 will not work on Yosemite.

    How can i upgrade to the latest Parallels from version 8 ? When i go online i can only see how to upgrade for version 9 or greater.

    Hi Paul,

    Is it possible to upgrade to a lesser version ie. go from 8 to 10. (instead of 9 to 11). ?

    Regards
    Sam
