Host System:

Macbook Air
Mac OS X Lion
Parallels Desktop 6

Guest OS:
Windows 7 Enterprise.

Problem:

Insert USB stick, get pop up to which device I want to give it to. I select the Guest VM.

Stick mounts on Mac OS X, nothing appears in Windows.

I've ejected it a few times, double checked a lot of things, still can't find anything that would indicate why it is doing this.
 
yes i've submitted a ticket as well.

Oddly, if you tell it to give the stick to Mac OS X it just vanishes and never connects to either the VM or the OS that I can tell.
 
Thanks for also submitting a ticket; if everyone does, should help escalation.

Interesting, my USB drives mount fine if I tell it to give to OS X. Then again, considering that a reinstall fixes things for some folks but not others, I suppose it shouldn't be all that surprising that symptoms are not always identical. Thanks for the info.
