Hi, I am running a web server in my Windows 7 guest OS, while I want to access it from my Mac host OS. The web server is running and I can access it from my guest OS, but not from its host. I'm using Parallels Desktop and I've tried to change the networking mode from shared, bridged, to host-only with no result. This is for development...
I've recently got a new Mac laptop and am running VS2010 in a Parallels virtual machine. It's mostly working out well for me, but I'm having some problems with debugging specific project types, related to the fact that the projects are being accessed via a network share. Test projects don't run because the test runner can't load the te...
The setup: Windows XP guest OS running inside Parallels 5 on a OS X 10.6.2 host. I have a win32 application that runs in windows that communicates with other programs by sending out keystrokes to the program in focus. I can run this software inside parallels just fine, but I need a way for it to communicate (via keystrokes) with native...

I want to be able to leverage my local RoR environment with SQLServer as a backend. I can't get the VM to respond to any requests from my Mac and I ha...

I have recently moved to C#.net 4. I love Parallel.For, but not sure when to use and when not to. I know that when order is not important for me - I'll use it. But are there any tests regarding the overhead of working with Parallels? Meaning, if my loop runs only 10 times (and performs very little logic) - should I avoid Parallels? Are...
I would like to run virtual machine on parallels desktop 6 from boot camp partition. Is it possible to run virtual machine in coherence mode ? I mean run windows application in separate window like its native OS X application. ...
I've looked everywhere for this but can't find an answer, so: I have a VHD image created for me by a client -- he installed Win7 on a machine and then used a tool from SysInternals to create a VHD which he shared with me and a colleague. I can mount the VHD on my Mac using Parallels Mounter and see the contents, but I can't for the l...
