1 post in this topic

Recommended Posts

I am sorry. I did perform a search first but did not get an answer after much reading. Searching much older and outdasted posts revealed a solution to me, but for anyone wondering on the same issue:

 

I had the oddest problem: I could not install any version of Parallels ; I was told that my system does not meet the system requirments

 

The solution is:

 

1) Download it

2) Mount the image

3) Launch Parallels.pkg... Ta-daaan! XD It says that you haven't a compatible system, in italian it says "Parallels non può essere installato in questo computer. Assicurati che il tuo sistema possieda i requisiti necessari.", in english "Parallels cannot be installed on this computer. Make sure that your system meets the requirements."

4) Copy Parallels.pkg on your desktop

5) Right click on it and choose "Show package contents"

6) Right click on "Contents", show informations and under "Ownership and permission" make you owner of it with a read/write access

7) Apply to enclosed items...

8) Open "Info.plist" with TextEdit and delete the follow:

<key>IFRequirementDicts</key>

<array>

<dict>

<key>Level</key>

<string>requires</string>

<key>SpecArgument</key>

<string>machdep.cpu.vendor</string>

<key>SpecType</key>

<string>sysctl</string>

<key>TestObject</key>

<string>GenuineIntel</string>

<key>TestOperator</key>

<string>eq</string>

</dict>

</array>

9) Save and exit

10) Go to Resources folder and delete InstallationCheck and pkmkshellutility

11) Exit and launch your modified Parallels.pkg

12) Install it! ^___^
