    While in Mac OS 10.8.2, Parallels 7 not running, while using Safari when I try using the Safari sharing tab to email web page or web link, I cannot. Get dialog box which appears it is trying to get into virtual machine's Safari:

    "The "Safari" application cannot be started. The application is installed in a virtual machine that cannot be located. Make sure that the virtual machine hasn't been deleted or moved..."

    Since the virtual machine is usually not running, how can I get Mac Safari to respond as if there never was installed?

    To complicate the matter further, this occurs only on the Mac Mini, but the MBP Safari acts as it should, i.e.. opens mail with page or link inserted in new mail message.

    Hi tgbunzini,

    I'm not sure if I got the issue right - you're using Mac Mail and when you click on the link in your email, you see the error message. Is that correct?

    If that's the case, it seems you also have Windows version of Safari installed in a VM?

    Try to go to Virtual Machine option at the top Mac menubar > Configure > Options > Applications and set the Web Pages to "Open in Mac".
