Hi, I've been using Parallels Desktop 5 (French release) for months without any problem. Everything was perfect and under XP I was writing my work files to Mac OSX file system through sharing custom folders. I've upgraded to version 6 (US release, as FR is not available yet) and now, when I want to save a file in Winword, Excel or Powerpoint (MS Office 2007, FR) with accent in the path (on sharing folder), this is impossible. However, this works fine when : * I move file through explorer. * I save file on windows drive instead of sharing custom folders * I use other software (such as PSPAD Editor) Thus, I suspect a problem with PD 6 sharing file system and MS Office FR Maybe this will be solved with PD 6 FR release, but will it be possible to upgrade to FR release when available even if I have an US release installed ?
I have same on my Mac OS X (v10.6.4) with Windows 7 on Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac (Build 6.0.11820). I can save contents on Wordpad and Notepad. But I couldn't save on Microsoft Word/Excel/Powerpoint. It is a shared folder on 'psf'. And there was no problem with Parallels Desktop 5 for Mac. Has anyone got any idea?
Fine ! As I daily use PD 6 and Microsoft Office for business can you please give an estimation when the nearest update comes ? Is this a question of days, weeks, (please no months ! ) ? ... Indeed, even if it can be easily bypassed, this bug is really boring ...
The update will not take long, i think. As a workaround avoid to save files to locations, containing non-latin characters in their host paths.
german "speichern unter" Same problem here with the german version of parallels 6. "Save as" from Microsoft Visio 2010 (guest OS) to mac-folders with german letters in the foldername like "ä", "ö", "ü" ect. does not work. This problem does not exist in parallels 5.
