Shared Clipboard

Is this in the beta? I can't seem to copy from a Mac app then paste to my XP install.

No, this feature not supported in beta, but will be supported in next versions.

Thanks! The Beta is quite stable so far. I am running on a 20" iMac. Ver. 10.4.5 with 1GB ram and with Win XP as my guest OS.

I've actually gotten this work, by using the menu commands (Edit - Copy) on the Mac side, then Edit - Paste within PW. Takes a sec for it to appear in the synchronization clipboard, but it does.

This is dirty workaround and it can not working at all Also you must install Parallels Tools before use this.

Can you explain me a little more how did you do it it copy and paste?
I follow your instructions and it do not work.

Also parrallels guy told to download Parallels Tools but they are not available to OSX.
Is any way to copy and paste? its doesnt matter if its difficult but we really need it, as we have installed windows to run a very important software and we need to copy text from mac and past it on win hundreds of times a day.

thanks for you help

On my machine, I can use the Mac copy command (Apple+C keys) and then in Windows, I use the Windows paste command (Control+V keys) ... seems to work just fine. Going the other way, you use Control+C in Windows and Apple+V to paste back into Mac.
