HT6114 Why did Parallels & Windows 7 disappear after update?

Since the latest update my Parallels and Windows 7 has disappeared. Is there a way to recover them? They were installed when I purchased the computer, upon my request, so I don't have the cd's.

Are you able to contact the company that provided the Mac and set it up for you, if you are it may save a lot of time and frustration for you.
However if that is not an option we need to know what update the system performed was. Look in the App Store under the Updates menu, it gives "updates installed during the last 30 days".
I am presuming you accessed Win 7 through Parrallels.
Use Spotlight to search for Parrallels, that may show where it as hidden itself.
The more info you can provide ( don't show any personal info though) may allow somne one on the forum to get you working again.

  • Why did my Application Stack Disappear after I downloaded an OS update?

    My Application Stack disappeared after I downloaded an OS update.  I can get it back as a folder on the dock but not the Application Stack. I am relatively new to Macs so maybe I missed something in the setup.

    Right-click or Control-click on the Applications folder icon in the Dock. A popup menu will open. Select Stack from the Display As section.

  • Why did I lose my contacts after updating operating system on my Ipad

    I upgraded the operating sysem on my I-pad 2 to 5.1.1.
    Now my contacts and apps are gone. Trying to figure out how to get them back.
    thanks for your help.
    Chris

    Updating to iOS 5.1.1?  Are you sure you have an iPad 2?  The original iPad cannot update to any system newer than iOS 5.1.1.  However, the iPad 2 can update to iOS 7.0.3 (current version).
    So my guess is there is something strange going on that would even allow you to update to iOS 5.1.1.  Etiher you have an original iPad, or you are using a very old version of iTunes on your computer, or something else very unusual.

        @cstigall - Were you able to get your contacts reversed? Sometimes that happens when you share or are logged in to the wrong Apple ID as Gina suggested.
    If you need further assistance, please let us know so we can help out!
    Thank you both, and take care!

  • Toolbar Disappeared After Updates

    Yesterday I installed updates for Acrobat 8 and Reader X. After doing this I no longer have a Toolbar when I open a pdf in Reader. I restored my computer to a week ago, restored all IE8 Security and Advanced settings to default, reinstalled the Adobe updates and still no toolbar. I CAN display the toolbar with F8 but can't lock it at the top of the page and it won't open with the document. Have looked at settings in Internet, General and Page Display thinking the answer must be there but just can't figure this out. I even deleted and reinstalled the last week's worth of IE Security updates to see if that made a difference and it didn't. What am I missing and why did my setting change with the updates?

    Hi pete54401,
    You're not the only one experiecing this issue.
    Before, there was a registry key to turn off the "floating toolbar".  When you turned off the floating toolbar in Reader X, you would see the toolbar docked.  This was not an issue in Adobe Reader 10.0.1, but since upgrading to the latest version of 10.1 released on June 14th 2011, this seems to be a problem.
    The registry key to turn on the floating tool bar is located in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Reader\10.0\AVGeneral\bBrowserDisplayInReadMode = 0
    The good news is that this turns off the floating toolbar, the bad news is it also now turns off the docked toolbar.  If you flip this bit to "1"  it turns on the floating toolbar and you can just click the Adobe Reader icon in that toolbar and it will turn off the floating toolbar and then you'll see toolbar become docked.
    The bad news is that you'll have to do this every single time you open a new PDF file in IE.
    This was not an issue in Reader 10.0.1, it's new to Reader 10.1.
    I'm trying to package Adobe Reader X for a large hospital and we have over 20,000 customers that need this toolbar docked because they work daily printing PDFs with a docked toolbar in IE.
    This is a new problem, hopefully they'll resolve it before the end of the year.  We've been waiting for a working version since February, it seems they fix one problem but it another one shows up.  I guess we will stay on versoin 9.3 until then.

  • HT1937 MY CONTACTACTS DISAPPEARED AFTER UPDATING

    my iphone contact disappeared after updating...what should i do

    I'm not sure why you thought you could get an intelligent answer with your question that provides absolutely no details.
    With what program are you synching your contacts?
    Have you restored from backup?
    Are your contacts on your computer?

  • Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    Why is my ipad2 really slow after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    Try this.
    Quit all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Here comes the/my solution:
    Remove Sophos Antivirus
    Thanks to boojum's remarks in https://discussions.apple.com/message/15480849#15480849 !
    Don't forget to use Sophos' deinstall package: /Macintosh HD/Library/Sophos Anti-Virus/Remove Sophos Anti-Virus.pkg
    Nevertheless, some settings have been re-initialized (no complete list!):
    - Dock
    - Language has been reset to English only
    - Expose & Spaces
    (- probably all personal settings?)

  • Why can't I use siri after updated to ios 6.1

    why can't I use siri after updated to ios 6.1

    Check your settings to make sure Siri is actually enabled.  Sometimes I find that Siri will disable during the updating process.  Oh, and it should be iOS 6.0 not 6.1.  6.1 doesn't exist...yet.
