LaCie desktop manager wont run in lion

Question

Hi
I have just purchased a new 1TB LaCie D2 Quadra External hard drive and connected it  by Firewire 800 to my 27" iMac.
I am aware of some compatibility issues, and the setup assistant would'nt run on Lion and you have to reformat manually, which I have done.
I then had to download v.1.4.3 of LaCies Desktop manager which has loaded and installed successfully, however when I launch the desktop manager, it says "No LaCie desktop manager compatible device found".
I am in dialogue with LaCie Support but the turnaround is about 1 response a day, and I am keen to sort this out....
Thoughts are that this forum will be far quicker ! !
Many Thanks

If you can't start Parallels after Lion upgrade do this:
Open Terminal and past this 5 command lines one after another. After pasting first line, sudo command will ask you for your user password, so you have to enter it and press Enter (only after first command):
sudo kextutil "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/prl_hypervisor.kext"
sudo kextutil "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/prl_hid_hook.kext"
sudo kextutil "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/prl_usb_connect.kext"
sudo kextutil "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/prl_netbridge.kext"
sudo kextutil "/Library/Parallels/Parallels Service.app/Contents/Kexts/10.6/prl_vnic.kext"
