Problem with yosemite and parallels

Since I have upgraded to yosemite and parallels 10 my windows 7 has been using a lot of CPU resources.  Windows 7 runs very slow and it been using almost constantly 100% of one of the quads resources.  This just started to happen when I upgraded, because I did not have this problem with Mavericks and Parallels 9 or 10. I have an iMac 2011, 8GB of Ram.  Has anybody had this issue.  Thanks.

Thanks for the response.  I was searching on a parallels forum website and found the following:
As from the symptoms, the issue can lie in NVRAM preferences of your particular Mac.
Please do the following to solve:
open Terminal application on Mac (Applications/Terminal.app)
please type this command (you may copy-paste it to the terminal from this message):
sudo nvram boot-args="debug=0xd4e"
Hit Enter.
You will be prompted to enter Mac user password. Please type it and hit Enter.
Note: you won't see what you are typing, just type and hit Enter. If you don't have Mac user password, please create a temporary one.
Then you may restart your Mac and the issue should be solved.
If not - please reply me here and I'll create a ticket for you in Support.
I did the above and it seemed to correct the problem.

  • Problem with JNI and Parallel Port dll

    Hi. I'm doing some testes with JNI. Firs i followed the netbeans tutorial for doing a C programa that prints somthing for java.. like.. "Hello java from C".
    So i tried to load a dll from my dll. Like, I have this dll to use the parallel port on windows Xp. So i created a dll to access it an comunicates eoth java.
    I did everything just fine.
    When I start my Java app, the first thing it does is to load this parallel port dll and configure the functions of it.
    After that .. I get this error
    EXCEPTION_FLT_STACK_CHECK (0xc0000092) at pc=0x0093d269, pid=2284, tid=3000
    Can someone explain why ?
    (Sorry if i wasn't clear enough, english is not my native language, so ask if you don't understand something.. )

    hi ,
    I met the same problem this morning, and searched the www.google.com in order to solve it, as a result, your article was shown on my screen. :)
    Till now I have read some technical information and solved my problems. Maybe the solution be useful to you:

  • Problems with Yosemite and Microsoft Exchange?

    Hi, everyone, I upgraded all of my computers I work on to Yosemite (home and work); my iPhone and iPad both run IOS 8.1.  I have 2 Gmail accounts that I use regularly; my job (university) is using Microsoft Exchange for the mail server.  I use MacMail; don't really like Outlook for mail things.
    I have periodically had some problems with pulling my job e-mail up on MacMail; since I converted to Yosemite, it has gone on steroids.  I can see all of my Gmail just fine (contrary to some others who have reported problems); anything that is Exchange-based mail on my job's e-mail account will show the sender and the subject—the message itself is blank, sometimes for minutes sometimes forever.  I have quit and restarted Mail, quit and restarted the computer to varying success, but it is still highly unpredictable other than not showing the message for a very long time.
    When I use the web-based version of Outlook, it instantly shows everything.  An A-B comparison of Outlook and Mail sometimes even has some messages not having even been downloaded into Mail, even though I have clicked on Get Mail.
    And—in the iPhone and iPad, everything is fine 100% of the time.  Works wonderfully.
    Any ideas?

    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"

    Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"
    The files are not corrupt. The problem is occurring with all DMGs that are apparently formatted in MS-DOS FAT16. No the file will not mount with Disk utility or any other disk mounter programs I have found.
    This is now the second time this occurred and now effects my MBP and my iMac. First time i spent days with Apple support and the only solution was ultimately back up the data, reformat the HD, start over from scratch and reload everything. That lasted about a month before the problem resurfaced and is now an issue on both iMac and MBP.
    I tried to identify all the programs I installed immediately before the error, as I am convinced it is the result of a software conflict.
    Recent programs includes:
    1) upgrading from Parallels 5.5 to 6.0 on both machines.
    2) using an HP secure II usb drive and setting up a secure disk.
    3) installing new itunes 10
    4) new update to Flip For Mac.
    The files affected are downloaded dmgs, including personal brain and google earth, both which are formatted in FAT16.
    Any help or thoughts? Apple has now spent hours trying and they say i now have to reformat and wipe and start over. That is unacceptable and based on pasted experience the problem is likely to repeat itself. having to wipe and rebuild a HD ever month is not an solution. i need to fid the root problem.
    In the meantime, anyone got a real solution on how to extract the data for a DMG using a different method?
    Message was edited by: remaia

    Where you able to find the solution, i am having the same problem, all was fine till i install some programs only same one i saw did we both did was flip4mac i uninstalled it but the problem is still there, i also restored and erased the hardrive but im not up to doing that all over again. If you found anything out let me know i would greatly appreciate it

    I am running Yosemite and have just bought Pro Tools Express with the intent to Upgrade to Pro Tools 11. Pro Tools Express is not compatible with Yosemite and will not install. How can I get this done?

    I have had this problem for close to a year. I have an Extreme base station, two Airport Express's and multiple G4 Mac's with up to date software. I have spent a huge amount of time trouble shooting, resetting, reapplying software and finally calling Applecare without any help. It would be great to get this problem solved.

  • Buy new computer with Yosemite and downgrade to Mountain Lion?

    Is it possible to buy a new machine with Yosemite and instead somehow downgrade/revert to Mountain Lion?  There's a program I like to use that is no longer updated by the developer and isn't terribly stable on the latest two releases of OS X...

    No, except by running it inside a program such as VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop, or VMware Fusion.

    Anyone having issues sharing a document on Numbers with Yosemite and iCloud drive? I am just getting a connecting to iCloud when I hit share by email but it never does, just keeps spinning

    Yes, I am having this problem too (although I was sharing via a "copy link" command, not via email). My workaround fix was to log into iCloud.com via Safari and get the share link there.

  • My iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    my iPhoto will not work with Yosemite, and it says that it was purchased under a different account, but that's not the case.  Any ideas why I cannot update iPhoto?

    How did you buy iPhoto? Did it come preinstalled on your computer with Lion or later, or did it come with Snowleopard on system installer disks?
    Which version of iPhoto?
    If you have a version of iPhoto '11 and it is showing on the Purchased tab of the App Store, with your Apple ID, then delete iPhoto from the Applications folder  (don't empty the Trash) and download iPhoto again from the Purchased tab.
    If that does not work, contact The App Store Support  from the Quick Links on the AppStore main page.
    Only apple Support can fix problems with apple ID.

  • Experiences with Yosemite and Mainstage

    Did any of you try Yosemite yet? I'm eager to upgrade but I'll wait with upgrading till next week when I have a couple of days without gigs. Would like to hear your experiences with Yosemite and Mainstage (3).

    I tried Yosemite with MainStage a while back, while Yosemite was still in beta.  At first, everything seemed fine.  About an hour or so after starting MainStage, we took a break.  When we got back on stage, I went to play and there was about a full second of latency!  I had to restart MainStage in the middle of a song.
    After about the third time this happened to me, I reverted back to Mavericks, and the problem hasn't happened since.  Thus, I'm nervous about upgrading to Yosemite again...

    IMac with bootcamp and parallel boots into windows 7 but won't boot into Mac OS lion?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your suggestion. Actually that was not the problem, because I had the Mcintosh drive set as my boot drive. The answer was that my Lion Os got somehow corrupted and I had to reinstalll Lion. This was all after I discussed the situation with the Apple Support people.

  • Problems with Yosemite  so far?

    Problems with Yosemite  so far: WIFI still seems a bit problematic, Safari on new update doesn't play youtube (neither hyperlinks nor for youtube's site), Problem connecting iPhone 6 to my MBP (late 2013, BT compatible) and turning Hotspot using continuity. Sorry guys, but it doesn't seem like the apple we all like, perfection-wise. any suggestion what to do? Maybe downgrading back to mavericks (god forbid, but it was an excellent OS)?

  • Problem with JFrame and busy/wait Cursor

    Hi -- I'm trying to set a JFrame's cursor to be the busy cursor,
    for the duration of some operation (usually just a few seconds).
    I can get it to work in some situations, but not others.
    Timing does seem to be an issue.
    There are thousands of posts on the BugParade, but
    in general Sun indicates this is not a bug. I just need
    a work-around.
    I've written a test program below to demonstrate the problem.
    I have the problem on Solaris, running with both J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
    I have not tested on Windows yet.
    When you run the following code, three JFrames will be opened,
    each with the same 5 buttons. The first "F1" listens to its own
    buttons, and works fine. The other two (F2 and F3) listen
    to each other's buttons.
    The "BUSY" button simply sets the cursor on its listener
    to the busy cursor. The "DONE" button sets it to the
    default cursor. These work fine.
    The "SLEEP" button sets the cursor, sleeps for 3 seconds,
    and sets it back. This does not work.
    The "INVOKE LATER" button does the same thing,
    except is uses invokeLater to sleep and set the
    cursor back. This also does not work.
    The "DELAY" button sleeps for 3 seconds (giving you
    time to move the mouse into the other (listerner's)
    window, and then it behaves just like the "SLEEP"
    button. This works.
    Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

    I've had the same problems with cursors and repaints in a swing application, and I was thinking of if I could use invokeLater, but I never got that far with it.
    I still believe you would need a thread for the time consuming task, and that invokeLater is something you only need to use in a thread different from the event thread.

  • Problem with installing and running some applications or drivers

    When installing and installing some items, towards the end of the installation I get this message:
    /System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
    *was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update*
    The end result is that some things do not seem to work properly, such as my HP printer. Would anybody have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

    Thank you for your response. Originally, I had a problem with Airport and ended up reinstalling Snow Leopard. Since then, when downloading upgrades etc, such as HP printer drivers, iTunes etc., towards the end of the download when its running the script, I get this message: /System/Library/Extensions/comcy_driver_USBDevice.kext
    +was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it or contact product's vendor for update+
    Sometimes, the download hangs and is unable to complete. The main problem I've encountered so far with an application is when I use the printer to scan an image via Preview, it's blank: there's nothing there.

  • Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated by itself and now outlook and address book have each over 340,000. What should I do?

    Problems with outlook and address book contacts: my outlook contacts had around 3,000 entries. Outlook duplicated entries and have now 340,000. I reinstalled microsoft office and, thus, outlook, and reinstalled mac OS X system and applications. While I managed to delete outlook contacts so that I can re-sync with my blackberry, the contacts at Mac Address Book were not deleted and still have over 340,000 entries. I do not mind deleting all contacts since I have back up, but I have not been able to delete them. Also, when I go at Address Book and try to delete or merge duplicated entries, the system takes forever and never ends because of such large amount of entries. Worse, when I do so I run out of RAM memory.
    My Macbook pro is just 2 months old.
    What should I do? Is there a way to delete my Mac Address Book without having the problem above?
    Many thanks

  • Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)

    Problems with Safari and Firefox (HTTP?)
    On a laptop G4, 10.5.8 and Safari 5.02 I experience the following:
    On the account of my oldest daughter everything works fine, i.e. wireless internet works and no problems with mail or safari.
    On the same laptop, on the account of my other daughter, the wireless is OK, she can mail etc. But safari nor firefox works. It says: can’t find server (whatever site) and in the activity window it looks if safari tries to open files (in the safari preferences-folder) in stead of http. Same applies to Firefox, so maybe it has more to do with HTTP in general?
    What goes wrong? What to do? I tried the following on the host terminal (tips from Apple)
    defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false
    and
    defaults delete com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled
    but that did not help,

    I'm still wondering why it happens now at this moment in time...
    PC does seem to be a bit odd & inconsistent, the few times I've tested with it, at least so far as we content filtering goes; and if I remember rightly, you're not the first to report previously ok settings suddenly preventing some or all internet until pc is switched off altogether.
    It may work when re-enabled
