    Hi,
    I've downloaded the .dmg image from your website, but though I've tried several times, when I double clicked the finder does not recognise the image :confused: , so no installation possible
    Could you help me?
    Thanks,

    I have the same problem, and I've downloaded it three times on two different Macs. The problem is with the Parallels-2.1.1658.24-Mac.dmg file.

    Looks like a problem while downloading.
    Look at the file size and md5 from server:
    md5: b21617cae62136abf5b61253b7250341 Parallels-2.1.1658.24-Mac.dmg
    size: 18388294 Parallels-2.1.1658.24-Mac.dmg

    Looks like it's downloading more...it's at 13.1 MB downloaded.

    Update: Download successful. Image mounts fine.

    BTW, I've submitted a story about this to Slashdot, so if it goes up, you should be prepared for a massive load on the servers...

    image problems

    Hi,
    All my images go from 5 to 8 mb, it seems the transfer stop at some moment. I've also tried to download with Firewire instead than Safari, but the same result.
    Thanks

    Ok, thanks. We are working on this problem.
    I've tell you when we fix it.

    Also if you have wget installed can you try to download via it ? (run in console)
