    Resizing Virtual Machine Screen

    I used to be able to resize the width and height of my VM by simply clicking on the right/left or top/bottom by clicking and dragging. For some reason I cannot do that anymore. I am running Parallels 9.

    Internet Connectivity in VM

    Running Parallels 9 in Windows 7 Pro - for some reason this am, all internet connectivity has ceased. Naturally, the internet connection on the Mac "side" is running flawlessly. Any clues?

    I am trying to run Timberline Software of a Win7 VM. It is very small in size and I cannot resize it. All other programs on the Windows side are running normally and fully adjustable. Has anyone else had this issue?

    Bouncing Icons - PD 9

    I installed PD 9 this am. I use AOL IM in the Windows virtual machine. Every time someone sends me a message, the icon "bounces" up and down in the System Tray on the Mac until I click on the AOL IM. Is there any way to disable it so it does not bounce?

    Parallels 8 and Windows 7

    I dialed into the Parallels support line and was able to get someone to work with me to improve my issue. A few things - under View, make sure you do not have Use MacLook enabled. Under Virtual Machine/Configure/Hardware/Video - make sure you have Retina Display unchecked. See if that...

    Parallels 8 and Windows 7

    I am still amazed that this version 8 was released without better testing. I am unable to use P8 as it makes every one of my Windows programs so small that I cannot use them.

    Parallels 8 and Windows 7

    Exact issue I am having as well. The VM simply replicates the resolution of the screen that it is on. VM is somewhat useable for me in my two screen configuration if I move it onto the second monitor, a 24 inch Apple cinema display. But this is not how I use my VM - I have everything set up -...

    Parallels 8 and Windows 7

    This is terribly disappointing that there has been no response or help to this issue. I am now also noticing that on some Windows programs in the command boxes that several sub-boxes such as Save, Cancel, etc. do not show up. Come on Parallels - do paying customers deserve this?

    Parallels 8 and Windows 7

    It is on - and there is no change to the resolution. Still is microscopic and I cannot change the resolution on the VM.

    Parallels 8 and Windows 7

    I foolishly did it again - downloaded a Parallels update without reading the forums here - shame on me. I choose to operate my MBP Retina Display in the setting with maximum resolution (more space). Unfortunately, that means the resolution on my Windows 7 is 3840x2244 and everything is so...

    Mouse "Snap To" Functionality

    Sadly, I brought this up many moons ago - October of 2007 and was promised it would be made available in the next Parallels update/version. Well, I am still waiting Parallels. I use my Mac with two screens - Windows on the laptop and Apple on the external monitor. Disabling Smart Mouse...

    Time Capsule with PD 6

    Here's something interesting since upgrading to PD 6 - whenever Time Machine does a backup, the size is 3.63 GB and it keeps eating up more space on my Time Capsule. Running 2.66GHz i7 with 8GB of RAM. OS X 10.6.4.
