excel

I am a heavy excel user and I found that the excel zoom in and out shortcuts (Ctrl + Alt + -) & (Ctrl + Alt + +) do not work in the VM. Does anybody has the same situation and is there any solution? Thank you!

Hi - I'm experiencing a major issue where Excel and Powerpoint are essentially unusable as ALT lags significantly in parallels, therefore making accelerator key functionality not work properly. Essentially, the lag means that when I enter a key shortcut quickly, ALT won't register and I'll just...

Hi everyone, just installed Parallels 15 in my new 16" MBP and I am using Windows 10 and excel 2010 (via a remote desktop at work). The thing is, I cannot go to the end of the line/column, something I usually do with Ctrl + Up/Down/L/R in Windows. Hence, the Shift + Ctrl + direction does not...

How do I enable multi region select please on Excel running on Parallels. I have got most key commands working well, but it just keeps bringing up the windows menu when I hold CMD down to try and multi select. Thank you,

If I press the option key when using excel - nothing happens. Does anyone know how to make this work please when using excel 365 on my parallel's VM? Thx

I have my installation configured to share Mac applications with Windows. Basically, I want to double click a file in Windows Explorer and it launch the corresponding Mac application (Excel, Word, etc.). All the settings are correct and when I double click the file, it launches the "splash...

Hello, I am running Parallels Desktop (v13.3.2) for MacOS High Sierra. I have recently started writing VBA scripts in Excel 2016 to transfer data between MS Excel and MS Access. Since then, Parallels freezes often whenever VBA downloads data from MS Access to MS Excel. Parallels may work fine...

I've recently installed Parallels Desktop 13 and am finding it incredibly frustrating to use Excel as the modifier keys aren't behaving properly. Mainly, holding them down or releasing them in sequence isn't detected properly. This is absolutely critical for Excel, so I'm not sure how/why this...

I was notified today of an upgrade for Parallels for Mac Desktop (13.13.1 (43365)), and after reading the change log, I installed it. I am running software on a Windows XP SP-3 virtual machine, and this update introduced a huge delay between pressing the Tab key on my keyboard (wired, not...

This is super annoying and is causing my work to slow significantly. I can reinstall parallels tools and I will be able to scroll horizontally until I switch tabs. As soon as I move tabs, I am unable to scroll left to right in "Freeze Panes" again. It's driving me crazy.

Hello. I've been using Parallels 9 for several years without an issue, but recently I've encountered a bug when a particular application(Excel) can't be started from Mac OS(10.9.5). Clicking on the app link created by Parallels does nothing. If I try to drug and drop xls file on the app link an...

Hi, I use Excel in Windows extensively, so keyboard shortcuts are a necessity. I got everything to work except for one thing: I have to fully release the keys between shortcuts. As an example, to select all the cells in a column, I can select the top cell and press CTRL+SHIFT+Down, which works...

I'm running Parallels version 13.0.1 on an iMac, with Windows 10. We use Windows almost exclusively to run QuickBooks and Quicken. I recently purchased an Excel spreadsheet to do food costing for my wife's business, she is a caterer. The spreadsheet has complex macros, etc. and will not open...

The Ctrl- shortcut for deleting rows is not working in excel after a parallels upgrade yesterday. This is causing major losses in my productivity. I've tried everything: 1. Parallels prefs: set mac OS X system shortcuts to always 2. Optimised keys for games None of the above things is solving...

Just upgraded to the newest build. Running Windows 10 on a MacBook Pro also running the latest stable OS. Excel is the latest I use parallels for Excel primarily. At first f4 wasn't working for cell references (while f2 for entering the cell and f7 for spellcheck worked fine). I reset all...

I am running Windows on a MacBook Pro 15" (2017) with Parallel. I have figured out how to show the function keys on the touch bar at all times, and they are working. However, F4 does not seem to be working as it should. In Excel it does not do an absolute reference ($C$4). F2 for example (which...

I just upgraded from parallels 10 to 13. My main use for parallels is Excel on my mac. There are two shortcuts that aren't working for me ctrl + shift + = -- when a column is highlighted this inserts a new column or row next to the old one in excel and is no longer working for me ctrl +...

On Apple-machines, running Parallels for Windows, I want to be able to connect (bi-directional) Excel with a MySQL-database. For pure Windows/Excel there is an "Excel to MySQL" addon, that works great. My question is if this addon will also works with Parallels, or that other solutions are a...
