Command-q quits parallels 5 too?

This is a bug i think..

when running in crystal mode, start any app (say internet explorer)

on the mac bar on top, you can pull down and choose "Quit Application (Command-Q)" and it works correctly.

however... if you use the keyboard "Command-Q" it not only closes the app, it closes parallels too!

arrg..

anyone else have this prob?

This by design, it works like that now. Thanks for the post, we consider your opinion in our feature-improvment plans.

 

delphipgmr,

you can avoid this by switching off the keyboard option in Parallels Desktop preferences:
Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> "Enable Mac OS X system shortcuts"

 

So your telling me that even though in the menu it basically says "press command-q to quit the application" and doing so SHUTS THE WHOLE SYSTEM down, that its a "Feature"?

I thought i gave up those kindof "Features" when i got a mac.....

 

I agree with delphipgmr. It would be extremely nice, if command-q could be used to quit the active windows application instead of the virtual machine.
One sticks to old habits, and hitting command-q to exit is a habit. And crystal is very nice, you forget about working in Windows. But then you hit command-q...aargh, I'm in Windows, has to hit alt-F4 instead.

 

actually, yuri was right, if you change that setting it works fine.
