    Hi,
    I'm running Parallels 17 on a Intel Mac running MacOS 10.15.
    I need to run some apps in an older MacOS.
    I have a drive with a barebones MacOS 10.9.5 installed.
    Is there a way to import the MacOS 10.9.5 HD into a VM to run in Parallels?
    Basically clone the HD into a VM.
    The main reason is that MacOS 10.9.5 is no longer signed by Apple. So is proving a pain to install directly. And I found I had a nice base install on an existing drive.
