    Hello all,

    How can I screen capture in MAC OSX and paste it to Parallels Windows XP Guest OS? In MAC I use Pathfinder's screen capture to clipboard but for some reason Parallels does not allow me to paste to the guest OS??

    Any ideas?
    thanks,
    Rob

    Save the captured image as a *.jpeg or any other image file type. Save this in the Parallels Shared folder and open it in the Guest OS...

    Thanks for your reply. Basically I have been doing that but its a darn hassle. Is there no way I can paste directly from MAC OSX to the guest operating system?

    Same Trouble

    :( I'm having the same issue as well. It's painful to run through the extra steps to tranfer image from mac to pc. I would love to see parallels save clipboard in between operating system.
