    I get a notification there is an update for Parallels, so I select the "Download and Update" option. It hangs at downloading 0.0 of 0.0 KB for quite a while before providing me with a message "Unable to download ParallelsDesktop-10..." and to try again later or contact support if it persists. Well after several days of trying to resolve this on my own, I'm resorting to bothering others on the Forum. Is there a way to manually get the disk image? Currently, it is ParallelsDesktop-10.1.3-28868.dmg that it informs me I'm unable to download, but perhaps it will be a later version by the time I get a response? ;o)
