    Hello,

    i just purchased Parallels Desktop 5 and i am having an issue with the caps lock. when i am in windows and turn caps on, os x follows suit. but when i turn off caps in os x windows does not follow suit. if this happens it becomes very frustrating to get windows and os x to resync the caps lock function. any have any suggestion on how i can get windows to follow suit on caps from os x? like is said os x will follow suit from windows but windows will not follow suit from os x.

    Stephen,

    I have to confirm that such issue exists in the product. If you press Caps Lock only once while working with Windows application and then switch to Mac application, Caps Lock will be non-synced.

    Unfortunately, there is no workaround i can suggest at the moment, other then reverting Caps Lock back to its original state on either side before switching between Win/Mac apps. We're working on this issue. It's not a trivial one as there are some platform technical limitations related to it.

    Regards,
    Max

    The issue isn't going from windows to mac. its going from mac to windows

    when i turn on or off caps in windows it syncs to os x correctly

    but when i turn on or off caps in osx, windows does not follow. windows continues to perform in its last know state for caps lock
