    I have just installed Parallels V7 onto my Macbook Pro, using Mountain Lion..All works great...except that I cannot see my local system
    This means that while in Mac mode I see my Win 8 Sever and Win Main machine...But while flipping over into bootcamp Win 7 mode
    I cannot see anytning except the Mac...I can use the internet while in Mac and while in Win 7...Bridged mode is greyed out and I am using shared mode


    Help......!

    Shut down Windows first before attempting to change network mode.
    You can launch Parallels from /Applications/Parallels Desktop.app (holding down option) without starting the VM.

    You didn't shut down the VM, you suspended it.
