In a Sequoia beta host + Sequoia beta virtual machine configuration, and perhaps others where Sequoia is involved, there is a bug where the memory usage of the virtual machine service will double on restart, so, for example, your 8 GB virtual machine will take 16 GB. In some cases, the RAM usage...

I have Mac Sequoia Beta 3 (24A5289g) running in a Parallels VM. I tried to sign in my Apple ID in the VM's Mac App Store and still get an "unknown error" like before. Is this working/not working for anyone else? I thought beta 3 was supposed to enable this feature

I've done some searching and haven't found an answer for what seems to be a basic question. Loads of clicking around in the settings and other places, still no luck. Hopefully it's something basic that I'm missing. I've got two VMs - one linux VM that I usually use headless - and a MacOS VM...

I just created a Sonoma VM to do some testing. I went to clone the VM and don't have room on my hosts's disk - it turns out that the VM is almost 140GB in size. I don't need a VM that big... If I could get away with a 40GB VM, I would do that. As expected, I can't shrink the disk once it's been...

I installed a VM of Sonoma on my M1 Max. Install went smooth as expected. I was going to try and install the Beta of Sequoia but it said I did not have enough hard drive space in the VM. Computer itself has over 200+ gigs free. I thought it would be like my Windows VM where I can just shut it...

Is there a plan to support connecting a USB device (in my case a camera) to a VM running on Apple Silicon? One of the tasks I would like to use Parallels for is testing against old versions of MacOS. I only support my app to Monterey and yes I cannot test x86, but I have no Ventura machine and...

Can you give me a hint, please? I created a Mac Somnus virtual machine. Made many copies. I need each copy to have a separate IP with SOCKS5. But I have no way to connect Socks there. It just drops the connection if I try to connect it there. Can you please tell me how to deal with this...

I installed Arn64 macOS in a VM. The installer didn't ask me the size of the partition / desk space. Now when I'm trying to upgrade it to the next version of macOS it tells me that there's not enough space. How do you increase it?

In a typical configuration behind a router with a ipv6 prefix /64, macOS will connect with 2 or more ipv6 addresses, a permanent "secured" address with a suffix based on the network controller's MAC address, and one more temporary addresses with random suffixes which make it harder for the MAC...
