Do you have Shared Profile enabled , if yes, Desktop is Mac OS desktop, and thus you actually not copying, also check that you have Shared Folders are enabled

 

Hi John,

thank you for your reply. I have show and Shared Profile are not enabled but Shared Folders are enabled. I use Lotus Notes in the coherence modus. When i drag and drop a file from Lotus Notes direct to my OSX Desktop but the file doesn´t copy to OSX Desktop. You habe any idea?

Could you please try the same in single Window mode?

 

In the single Window from XP Desktop to OSX Desktop works fine, but from the Lotus Notes program doesn´t work. I don´t see a green + to copy.

 

It looks either Parallels Tools are not working correct (I do not think so), either some software blocking it, try to copy file to Finder Window

 

Hi,

i have try to copy the file to Finder Window. I have add a attachment you can see the Lotus Notes program and i want to drag and drop the Excelfile from the EMail to the Finder Windows but it doesn´t work.

 

I meant open Finder Window, I am not able to notice Finder opened on screenshot (I mean Finder window not Desktop)
