Please come up with a way to disable the automatic machine pause in Coherence mode. This is really annoying. Also, P6 takes a long time to start up and run. I'm using 10.5.8 with no immediate plans to upgrade OSX.
I find the automatic pause in Windows mode also annoying and time wasting. For example, I try to copy a file from Windows to Finder and find that halfway through, the Windows side has paused.
I would love to see this feature as well. I am required to use a vpn and the automatic pause disconnects that connection. This is a daily frusteration with this product for me. There is no reason why there should not be a option to disable or delay this automatic pause.
Disable pause in virtual machine configuration menu There is a checkbox to disable pause when no programs are open. Perhaps this will work for you. Visual here... http://kb.parallels.com/6860 Wakester
unlucky enough, the checkbox only appears for windows guests, but others (mac OS im my case) also auto pause. Does anybody know how to stop a mac OS guest from auto-pausing?
