MacVertigo Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I just installed Leo last night, and I can't get Parallels to work.. it bounces, then can't open. Anyone else tried to get it to work? If it doesn't work, I'm going back to 10.4.10. ---- Ok I fixed it. I had to reinstall it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmni Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 VMWare's latest beta has experimental Leopard support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemiola Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I have returned to Parallels v 2.5 - it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmni Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 I've actually tried VMWare now, and it seems to work just fine. I'm not sure if I'll bother reinstalling Parallels. Doesn't seem to be a need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimms Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Parallels 3 just bounces and then crashes, Parallels 2 seems to run ok, but it seems a lot slower than on Tiger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACaroni Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Wierd I now have leopard as my Main OSX and Parallels works fine with me... Sometimes with the startup a rightclick menu bar frezes in parallels but when I restart PD its gone and Vista runs smooth. Im home in about 2 hours. Ill check the version of PD when im home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimms Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Weird. I just reinstalled Leopard on my MBP (it was installed on an external disk before). I installed Parallels, and the first time I launched it it worked fine. From thereon, any time I launch it, it bounces twice and then crashes. More updates: It appears to be an intermittent problem. I can now launch Parallels most of the time, however trying to start a virtual machine (either one brought over from my Tiger installation, or a new one created just then) results in the error: "Unable to communicate with hypervisor! Hopefully a restart will fix this - running a time machine backup at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrospek Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 The "Unable to communicate with hypervisor!" error is the same error I was getting.. In the end I installed VMWare and it works great ! make sure you get the latest version as it is compatible with Leopard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing here.. and I need XP to log in to my companies server. I'm going back to tiger.

Shimms Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I've switched to Fusion, however I don't like the way they've implemented Unity, but I can live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keltorsori Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 i'm using parallels 3.0 in the WWDC beta just fine. I'm only working off the bootcamp partition, though (Vista Biz). Even coherence is working well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francisco Silvaaa Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I think is one of the app Updates , i reinstalled Leopard and it worked fine until i finish to install all my apps and theirs updates, im not sure wich one is the responsible... the last thing i did install was iWorks en the updates of keynote, pages and the Superdrive upgrade, this one i can not install, the app does not open. i am not sure what to do, i supouse i can install some old version of parallels, but i already was fond with the 3d acceleration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shimms Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 The updates would match my experiences - I just never put two and two together. I've gone back to Tiger for now - as soon as Leopard hits the shelves I'll pick up a copy though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
