    Hi,

    I'm running Parallels 6 with windows 7 in Snow Leopard. Macbook Pro

    My problem is as follows; The keyboard will no longer automatically connect, though it did when I first installed the program. However, I can manually connect it by clicking on the parallels icon in the top right, selecting devices -> USB->apple keyboard track pad. Then the keyboard and track pad will only work in windows 7.

    The mouse will work in coherence mode but will not in any other mode.

    The keyboard only if I manually connect it.

    I've installed parallels tools and updated all the drivers within windows but nothing is working.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    KG

    I got the exact same problem.
    Did you find a solution?

    I can add that this is on a brand new MacBook Pro with 10.6.6 + other software updates and a clean install of the latest (6.0.11992 rev 625164) Parallels Desktop with a new install of Windows 7 Pro x64 Swedish.

    I just noticed that is in the wrong forum. Can we have the thread moved to the Windows Guest forum?

    I had to delete parallels and reinstall. That was the only fix I could find.
