    having the same issue

    thought i would point out that (if you are unfamiliar with witch)

    using witch requires that assisted devices be enabled.

    otherwise it doens't actually function.

    there must be some connection between the two. my guess it's the same issue as voice over.

    If you have assisted devices on, but nothing enabled. it's okay.

    if you have assisted devices on, and witch or voice over. crash

    if you have assisted devices on and witch installed. you are fine. as witch is inactive.

    lasty, assisted device support on, witch off. works fine.

    (that's what i've observed on my machine.)

    btw... if you leave assisted devices on and turn witch off. launch crystal. and turn witch back on. No problems using both.

    it must be something the conflicts in the actual launch of crystal view. cause a suspend and return to the machine creates the same crash. (as does going back to regular view with assisted and witch enabled.)

    Can be a solution!

    Hi everyone... I have the same problem with the upgrade of parallels 5 for mac, in my VM i still have the kapersky antivirus 6.0 for workstations and when i update to the new version of that antivirus, i mean upgrade the license install a new one and all it's ok... but when I try to see the configuration panel of the kapersky I can't then i switch to the window mode configure the updates of the antivirus and discover that the kapersky deactivate the functions of crystal and coherence mode...

    I desinstall the antivirus and solve it! Parallels teams you have any suggestion about that???

    Same here

    I'm having the same problem: if Assistive Devices is on, Parallels will crash when I enter Crystal mode (although Windows seems to be running somewhere and the Windows drive is still mounted on my desktop). If I turn off Assistive Devices, all is well.

    Really would like to see a fix for this -- until it arrives, I'm not upgrading.

    It is not so simple. I have same configuration but nothing crashes. I have found the problem with VoiceOver but can not reproduce it with Witch. I'm working hard to catch the bug.

    Sorry for giving you troubles.
