Hi, I've purchased the parallels this evening but I'm having much difficulty getting it started up. It seems like ir wont allow me to install windows? but perhaps you can take a look at it. Im not technically savvy, I've been at this for some hours now but its time to call in the calvary. Im lost. please help.
 
Double-click the downloaded Parallels Desktop installation file with the . dmg extension to mount it to Finder. Then double-click the Install icon. Enter your Mac user account password to begin installation.

To configure Parallels Desktop do the following:
Open Parallels Desktop and click Parallels Desktop > Preferences in the menu bar. Then click General and select the Start Parallels Desktop as a service option.

A typical installation process of Parallels Desktop will only take 5 minutes and if you have an iso image file of Windows 8 then Windows installation will not take more than 20-25 minutes
 
Hi and thanks for your feedback. I've done what you suggested, unfortunately I'm into I think my 4th hour now. Something isn't right. Any other assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
So, basically I sent the files to the trash and downloaded everything again. Looks like its worked. Possibly a corrupted file which is now resolved.
