Parallels Desktop 3.0 crahes on start
Hey guys,
I bought Parallels 3.0 and installed it. But (nearly) every time I started (haven't installed XP-Partition, etc. yet) it it directly crashed, although I already have 2 GB RAM.
Only times it worked was after restarts, but only 2 times.
Below the Report:

Hi,
Recently my dad's Windows 7 (Ultimate 64-bit) on his Mac Pro has stopped working. It gets stuck at a black screen with a blinking cursor. I've waited at least five minutes and it doesn't do anything, I have to power it off.
However it starts up perfectly fine and intact in Parallels desktop. If I insert the original installation DVD and boot from the Disc that says 'Windows' it will boot into the partition and work fine, unless I press a key to boot from the DVD.
I find both these things to be strange. The partition is backed up, which is fine, but I'd rather not have to re-install it if possible.
I have booted from the DVD and tried to repair the disk. It said it found a problem with something related to startup and that it needed to restart to repair it. I clicked yes, and then held alt/opt and (I think wrongly) booted back into the disc rather than the Windows partition. However it now says that it can't detect any problems.
In the repair my computer section when booting from the DVD, it detects the OS as Windows Vista Business. I followed these steps I found online:
Fixed! Peroblem was I think using OEM, which Bootcamp advise against using... they advise to use retail only. Fixed like this:
1. Put the Windows 7 installation disc in the disc drive, and then start your computer.
2. Hold down Option key till all available disks are displayed and select DVD. Press a key when you are prompted.
3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then 4. click Next.
5. Click Repair your computer.
6. Click the operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.
7.In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click Command Prompt.
Type (these commands are safe)
Code: Bootrec.exe /FixMbr
Code: Bootrec.exe /FixBoot
Code: Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd
*Press ENTER after each command.*
*Restart your computer.*
Done. Rockin'
FixMbr was successful, as was FixBoot. However RebuildBcd reported that it found no Windows installations.
Does anyone know what could be wrong here? I should note that recently I removed the drive Windows 7 is installed on and put it back in. Also Windows Updates probably have been done by my dad. Not sure if they could be the problem.Cult, welcome to the forum.
It sounds like you have a failing power supply unit (PSU). This will cause the symptoms that you describe. If the computer isn't getting enough power, it can cause numerous problems. You can try disconnecting any unnecessary components to see if it will boot. Here is a guide to help you troubleshoot the problem.

Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 activation issue on MAC running Parallels Desktop for Windows 7
I have a MacBook Pro laptop running both OSX and Windows 7 (using Parallels Desktop). I installed the MAC version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 when I booted in the MAC OSX mode. I also Installed Adobe Photoshop 10 in the Windows 7 mode (running as a virtual machine using Parallels Desktop). Both programs indicate that they are activated. If I boot the computer in the Windows 7 mode (not using Parallels Desktop) and start the Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 program it indicates that it is NOT activated and that I "already have two copies activated".
Question: Since I only actually have two copies activated how do I get the program activated for the Windows 7 boot operating mode?
Thanks in advance.

I need appleisightinstaller.exe to install the isight driver for Windows Vista running in Parallel Desktop 6 for Mac, but I don't have a Leopard DVD. What came with my Macbook Air was a flash stick "MacBook Air Software Reinstall Drive" only.
All,
A very interesting NOTE to this thread. In order to try and get the "ignore permissions" box to show up in GET INFO (so I could execute Matt the Magician's solution to file sharing issues)-- I ran the terminal command for disabling ACLs on my internal HD / start up disk (as indicated in the linked thread to BDAqua's forum).
Although I understand that this was useless for disabling permissions on the start up disk (as everyone here pointed out) and allowing me to see the "ignore permissions" check box - somehow it did seem to fix my file sharing problem...and that was the root problem I wanted solved in the first place! After doing the terminal command and a quick reboot, I went in and tested file sharing on the chosen directory and I can create new files or work from existing files in the directory, with both users being able to modify / and save from both machines and each machine sees the revisions and can build from them. Bottom line - I'm stoked and want to thank everyone for their help.
The only other tweak I made was going over to my wife's machine and instead of using her log in / password, I just used my name and password to connect to my main machine that was sharing directories. Maybe that's what fixed the problem or the ACL disable but either way...I'm up and running the way I want to be.
Hope this thread helps anyone else who has these file sharing / permissions issues with Leopard. Especially for anyone wanting to do such a simple file sharing set up between 2 computers. I wish I understood exactly which tweak fixed the problem, but at least it works the way I want now.
So happy to be done w/this one!
Thx everyone. Any additional input on what solved it is welcome, so my curiosity is quelled...

Which is better? VMware Fusion 3 or Parallels Desktop 6?
Hi all
I have had my iMac i5 for 3 days now and I am starting to get the hang of it ater coverting from PeeCee....
But I have some application that I need to run in windows, mainly my pinnacle software (dazzle creator 90 and media streamer similar to apple TV).
I would like to access and run windows via the mac os but I am stuck on which software to buy. Should I et VMware Fusion 3 or Parallels Desktop 6.
I would use bootcamp but from what I have read I can only run OSx or Windows XP
Does anyone here use either software and recommend which is best or if there is another similar software? I am thinking of selling the streamer to get apple tv but only if I can't get this to work...Forgot to mention that I have found 2 different versions of parallel's 6
there is:
Parallels Desktop 6 £59.99
and
Parallels Desktop 6 Switch to Mac Edition £79.99
are these the same software? -
I can't use Parallels Desktop after I installed Lion
Every time I try to start Parallels Desktop I get an error message about "no driver found" and "start your mac again".
Thank's for the response.
I'm running version 5 of Parallels and that's obvious causing the problem. I will upgrade to version 7 and see if that solves the problem.
Thanks,

Question about parallels desktop
Hello!
I have a little problem with my Parallels Desktop. I have installed a windows xp operating system with parallels desktop, but the virtual video card's memory is only 256Mb. In Mac OS X i have 2 video cards. One with 256Mb memory and one with 512Mb memory. Maybe can you help me how to solve this problem? Thanks in advance!:)Hi Tojas;
I would certainly hope that if you told the folks at Parallels that you were interested enough in their code to try a demo but that you were having problems with it that they would help you.
I would start at this site

After upgrade to OS X Mavericks, Parallels Desktop 9 problems
After updating to OS X Maverics, I began to have problems with Parallels Desktop 9. After several re-installs of Parallels, I asked for Parallels Customer support.
I was directed to start terminal and type in
sudo su
and then press return
in Terminal type in
id -a
an then press return
my Terminal output was as follows:
sh-3.2# id -a
uid=0(untitled 1) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel),12(everyone),61(localaccounts),100(_lpoperator),402(com.apple.s harepoint.group.1)
sh-3.2#
In the Parallels support articls (http://kb.parallels.com/118079)
if the output starts with "uid=0(guest)" it means Mac OS X recognizes the system administrator with the root permissions as the guest user. Please consider contacting Apple support to resolve this issue.
How do I fix this?I have the same problem. I got too many hours into this when I finally called Parallels tech support. My output from the command looked like that below. Thing is I have 2 other machines running Parallels and they look the same.
sh-3.2# id -a
uid=0(root) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel),401(com.apple.access_screensharing),405(com.apple.sharepoint.gr oup.5),402(com.apple.sharepoint.group.2),404(com.apple.sharepoint.group.4),403(c om.apple.sharepoint.group.3),1(daemon),2(kmem),3(sys),4(tty),5(operator),8(procv iew),9(procmod),12(everyone),20(staff),29(certusers),33(_appstore),61(localaccou nts),80(admin),98(_lpadmin),100(_lpoperator),204(_developer),101(com.apple.share point.group.1) -
Parallels Desktop 9 can't be opened after EFI upgrade 2.9
I just upgraded my EFI firmware for 2.9 edition. But after done this, the Parallels Desktop 9.0 can't be started with an warning of Unable to load the Parallels driver. It seems that the virtualization support is disabled on my Mac.But I have done with upgrade. And another odd thing is the upgrade notice is always on App Store software bar even if I have installed it for several times. Who can help me?
After you have the problem with PB, open the Console app and look for log entries associated with PB at the the time you tried and post the results here.

Mountain Lion and Parallels Desktop 7
When I updated My Late 2011 Macbook Air to Mountain Lion, I could not open Parallels Desktop 7 any more.
It would say that it cannot be used with this version of OS X.
Does it mean I have to buy a better version of Parallels?
What should I do?
I dont want to buy it againroro again,
Reinstalling parallels is a different issue to reinstalling windows on parallels.
Keep you existing virtual machines and when parallels is re-installed use the create virtual machine menu to add an existing machine, when it asks you if this is a copy or you have moved it, reply 'moved' so that windows activation is satisfied that it is the same machine.
If reloading Parallels tools doesn't work for you, or if you can't get Parallels to start at all, I suggest uninstall then reinstall as it will create a clean copy of parallels. You may have to re-register/activate again with parallels but this is free and a relatively small effort.

Can't Hide Mac Mouse in Parallels Desktop 4.0
I have recently installed parallels desktop 4.0. I am running both Windows XP Pro and Ubuntu 8.10 (not at the same time, but as my other operating systems of choice). I am having problems with the mouse. Whenever I click on the parallels window and start to work inside of the installed operating system, the Macintosh mouse goes to the exact center of the parallels screen and WON'T disappear. How do I hide the Macintosh mouse in parallels? I only want to see one mouse at a time. This is very annoying.
Also, almost equally as annoying, whenever I have parallels open, and when I do want to use Leopard, the Macintosh mouse doesn't work normally. I cannot simply click and drag the mouse over menu bars. Rather, I have to hold the left click button down the whole time in order to get the mouse to behave like it normally does. Does anyone know of a fix for this problem?
Any insights you might have are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
NateObviously it's not a forbidden topic. However, we are asked to provide support for Apple's products because this website is provided by Apple for Apple product users. You can understand that Apple has no vested interest in our supporting other products. Besides, Parallels has an excellent forum to provide user support, and that should be the appropriate destination to find assistance with their product.

Wee Problem with Parallels Desktop and the Westmere Mac Pros
Just got my new Westmere 8-Core Mac Pro last Friday, and spent the last four days in agony.
I used Migration Assistant to transfer over my accounts from my old Mac Pro, but it crashed hard -- so hard that I had to reformat the hard drive and do a clean install of the system. So I decided to do a clean install of all of my programs as well, and the Westmere crashed on the Parallels Desktop installation. And, again, it crashed so hard that I had to reformat the hard drive and do a clean install of everything all over again.
Today, I read a review of the Westmere Mac Pros in Macworld (http://www.macworld.com/article/153704/2010/08/quad8_core_macpro_2010.html?lsrc=top2), and learned:
We ran into a problem running Parallels on the Westmere-based Mac Pros, so we could not complete the Speedmark 6 suite of tests. When booted into 64-bit mode (as the new Mac Pros do by default) the systems would crash with Parallels installed. Booting into 32-bit mode would allow the systems to start up, but we still couldn’t use Parallels. We eventually tried a complete wipe and reinstall from the Mac Pro’s systems disc and downloaded the very latest version of Parallels to eliminate any other potential problems, and had the same issue. Apple and Parallels are aware of the problem and assure me that Parallels is working diligently on a fix. The application worked just fine on the new quad-core Mac Pro with the Nehalem processor.
Hoped I saved somebody some time.Hi akapod,
Looks like they may have the fix out.

Parallels Desktop and Home Networking
I don't know if anyone has encountered a similar problem that I'm describing below.
Context: We have two MBP's at home running 10.4.9 connected over a wireless network. Both computers for some time saw each other easily over the network when appletalk was enabled and also shared files easily. All one had to do was to click the network folder in the finder window, and the other computer would show up automatically.
Recently, I installed Parallels Desktop Build 3188... and well, now neither computer could see or share files with one another. From checking all my network settings, nothing about the airport connect had changed, and appletalk was still enabled on both computers.
I could remove parallels, but obviously I installed the software because I needed to make use of some PC software.
Oh, and I have checked the Parallels website. Neither their support, documentation, or FAQ were of any help whatsoever.
Has anyone experienced this problem with their home network and Parallels?I want to thank Joe and Tristan for replying. Just a follow up to both your comments.
First, I have my parallels VM set to bridged, rather than shared networking. As to which type is actually more secure for Win XP running within the virtual machine, well, I'm not quite sure and that's surely a topic for further discussion.
I have to report on the status of my network - well, I started seeing the other mac in my network folder again... but sporadically. I was doing what Tristan had suggested, unchecking the Parallels Host-Guest and Parallels NAT configurations. I suspect the following:
When my computer is first booted, having both the Parallels Host-Guest and NAT checked prevented me from seeing the other computer. Uncheck them, and all of a sudden the other computer appears on the list. However, at this point, I can re-check the boxes of the Host-Guest and NAT, and am still able to access the other computer. It's almost like the computer doesn't see it at first, but then when you take down the Parallels wall and put it up again later, the computer remembers that the other one was there. This is completely speculative, and needs a few more rounds of testing to be sure.
However, for now at least, I can get my network connections back. -
Mac Safari fights with Parallels Desktop
When I have Safari running, and then launch Windows via Parallels Desktop, everything slows to a crawl.
If I quit either Safari or Parallels Desktop, everything goes back to full speed.
It seems like some kind of degeneration. I had this problem a while back. I created a new user account on my Mac and started using that and voila, Safari and Parallels worked fine together again. But over time the problem has crept into my new account.
Has anybody seen this before? Any ideas?I've got 4gb of RAM and only 1gb allocated to the VM.
However, while trying to solve another problem, this seems to have got fixed as well. I had a problem with Safari not displaying pages correctly, posted here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18388014#18388014
Anyway, my Parallels problem has gone away. Go figure.
