Before install the lastest parallels,you must change one little string... Right click the package to "Show Package Contents".You will find a file "info.plist".Open it and change this TestObjectGenuineIntel to TestObjectAuthenticAMD Save the changes and try again...

onurthemonur Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I'm trying to install Parallels Desktop on an AMD machine, and I tried to change the info.plist file as AuthenticAMD as u told... but the system doesn't save the file and I still can't install parallels... when I try to close the file it asks if I wanna save... no matter if I say save or save as... it keeps asking... sometimes it asks for the root password but nothing happens after I enter the password... it keeps asking for the save... I'm a newbie about macos... could u help me about that plz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
