    Hello,

    I have a MacBook Pro and Parallels 6 installed. I have a Windows7 Guest OS that I have been using for a while now. I have a very annoying issue with Parallels that I can't seem to find the answer too.

    I use a second monitor quite a lot when I am at work with Parallels in Coherence mode. When I leave for the day I unplug my monitor from the MacBook Pro and The Mac OS automatically switches everything back to the Laptop LCD. The issue is any applications within Parallels that I had on the external monitor can not be seen anymore. The only way I have been able to get them back is to close the application from the start bar and then start the application again.

    Is there some kind of key sequence or setting that can be used to tell Parallels to switch all the applications back to a single monitor?

    Thanks for any help,
    Dan

    Any luck with this. I'm having the same problem and it's really annoying. I can't even shut the application down and get the missing windows back. I need to hook up the monitor again and drag them all back.
