I love Parallels. I favor it to any competing software for Desktop productivity (more than VirtualBox, VMware, KVM). But this wired article (which was similarly rumored back in 2014) which explains Apple's plans to switch Desktops to ARM A8 chips by 2020 has some merit...

Hello! I have currently issues using a shared clipboard between mit host OS (MacOS) and guest (Ubuntu). If I use the default window manager, everything works as expected. But if I log out and log in again using i3wm, the clipboard is not working any more. Even the resolution is not updated...

Hello, I can't seem to successfully install or reinstall the Parallel Tools into an existing VM, like Ubuntu, LEAP, however there are no issues with it in regards to Windows 10. What do I need to do to get a successful install or reinstall? When i try to reinstall, I get a message about...

...Or maybe give people a big warning not to upgrade to latest kernel on your Linux VM. Most distros will be on 4.15 soon !!! (4.16 is already out). The whole point of running VMs for many people is to test new OS versions. I like the Parallels product and I have used it for years but If it...

After seeing slow boot ups and lots of ntp traffic on boot up of Mint, I did some digging. Mint installs with a pile of ubuntu ntp servers defined in /etc/ntp.conf. When using a NAT virtual connection, the VM does not see any local time servers (like my router). The network traffic to...

I use Mint on a laptop so I know all the tweaks and tips to running Linux in a laptop environment. Has anyone experimented with setting up a laptop Mint environment under Parallels to maximize battery time, reduce SSD wear, etc ? I would assume that the normal "bare metal" setup tips apply to a...

Hi there - does the Touch ID feature only work with Parallels instances of Windows 10? Or, can it be customized to work with Linux installs too? When I was reviewing the literature, I thought that it'd be great to be able to use touch to login to VMs, but I'm not seeing that as a possibility...

Hi, I tried Google I read the other posts regarding this but nothing helped. I consistently get slow DNS-resolution no matter how I resolve. I created a trace of a dig request with trace enabled where you can see that the initial resolve takes 5 seconds. I have a lot of vms which are created by...

Is the information at http://blog.parallels.com/2015/03/31/virtual-machine-performance-myths-debunked/ still current? In other words, are 2 virtual cpus the sweet spot for Parallels VMs? The referenced article talks about Windows - same thing for Mint (i.e. Ubuntu) Linux?

My use case is this: I have source code on my macOS filesystem, which I edit there using an IDE. That same code is transpiled and executed in a Linux guest, via Parallels Shared Folders (PSF). In the Linux guest, tools like node are using inotify to know when to re-run the compilation. The...
