Parallels is a software company based in Bellevue, Washington; it is primarily involved in the development of virtualization software for macOS. The company has offices in 15 countries, including the United States, Germany, United Kingdom, France, Japan, China, Spain, Russia, Australia and Ukraine, and over 800 employees.[3]

However, Parallels Desktop 11 is not compatible with Mac OS X 10.6. Hence you need to upgrade your Mac OS to the latest version to use Windows 10 using Parallels Desktop for Mac. Sathiya@Parallels, Oct 30, 2018. Sep 09, 2011  As Lion has dropped Rosetta support, I was looking for a way to still run my old programs after updating to lion without having to reboot my computer using a Snow Leopard partition. Parallels can run another version of Mac OS X, however due to licensing issues, it. Sep 09, 2010  Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac OS X is coming soon, and it brings with it an array of improvements and new features that make it more possible than ever to straddle the line between Windows and Mac.

Company history[edit]

Privately held server automation and virtualization software company SWSoft developed software for running data centers, particularly for web-hosting services companies and application service providers. Their Virtuozzo product was an early system-level server virtualization solution, and in 2003 they bought Plesk, a commercial web hosting platform.[4]

SWsoft's acquisition of Parallels was more or less kept under wraps until January 2004, two years before Parallels became mainstream.[5] In 2004 SWsoft acquired Parallels, Inc.[6] and Parallels Workstation for Windows and Linux 2.0[7] was released, with Parallels Desktop for Mac following in mid 2006.[8] Later the same year the corporate headquarters moved from Herndon, Virginia to Renton, Washington.

At Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference 2007 in San Francisco, California, Parallels announced and demonstrated its upcoming Parallels Server for Mac.[9] Parallels Server for Mac will reportedly allow IT managers to run multiple server operating systems on a single Mac Xserve.[10][11]

In 2007 the German company Netsys GmbH sued Parallels' German distributor Avanquest for copyright violation (see Parallels Desktop for Mac for details), then Parallels Server for Mac was announced at WWDC - and later Parallels Technology Network.[12]Outlook update for mac high sierra.

Parallels For Os X 6 7

In 2008 SWsoft merged into Parallels to become one company under the Parallels branding[5] which then acquired ModernGigabyte, LLC.[13][14]Parallels Server for Mac was launched in June[15] then in September Parallels Desktop 4 for Windows and Linux, a rename of Parallels Workstation for the 4.0 release,[16] - and Parallels Desktop 4.0 for Mac[17] later that year. From the next version, 6.0, the Windows and Linux software became known as Parallels Workstation again.

Over the next three years the company launched Parallels Desktop 5 for Mac,[18]Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac,[19] Parallels Server for Mac 4.0 Mac mini Edition,[20]Parallels Transporter,[21] Parallels Workstation 6 Extreme,[22]Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac,[23] Parallels Mobile for iOS[24] - and Parallels Workstation 6.[25]

During 2012, 2013 and 2014, the company discontinued Parallels Server for Mac, Windows and Linux, launched Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac and Mac Management for Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager. and released Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac.

Parallels acquired 2X Software in February 2015,[26] rebranded their service provider business to Odin[27] - later selling the Odin Service Automation Platform to Ingram Micro.[28] They also released Parallels Mac Management v4.0 for Microsoft SCCM and Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac.

You all know that you can run Windows on your Mac with Parallels Desktop. Today, we want to show you that there is so much more to Parallels Desktop than running Windows on Mac. A large number of existing OSes can be installed in a virtual machine on the Mac with Parallels Desktop. Mac is the perfect platform as all OSes can be virtualized there; under the terms of Apple’s license agreement, Mac OS X can only run on Apple computers.

Free Systems

Parallels Desktop already integrates several free systems, and with Parallels Desktop 12, we have updated and added even more. With the Parallels Wizard (see Figure 1), you can easily find, download, and install the different OSes in a VM. This blog lists the different free systems and discusses the advantages of virtualization.

Mac OS X and macOS

Apart from Windows on Mac, there is a strong need to run different OS X versions in a VM on the Mac. This is especially useful for developers to test software and its compatibility in the specific OS X version. Another reason why VMs with an older version of OS X are frequently used by our customers is that third-party software is not always compatible with the latest OS X version, and new MacBook devices don’t support all OS X versions. In the Parallels Wizard, OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan is available, but all other OS X versions as well as the beta of macOS Sierra Updates can be integrated. An older OS X is pretty easy to find in your Mac App Store as long as you have purchased it. Some older versions (10.6, 10.7, 10.8) can also be bought in the Apple Online Store.

Windows 10 development environment

Parallels Desktop for Mac Pro Edition users can also use the Windows 10 development environment that is integrated in the Parallels Wizard. This button downloads a large VM from Microsoft with lots of developer tools pre-installed. These installs include:

Vpc

  • Windows 10 Enterprise Evaluation, Version 1511 (60-day trial)
  • Visual Studio 2015 Community Update 2
  • Windows developer SDK and tools (Build 10586)
  • Windows IoT Core SDK and Raspberry Pi 2 (Build 10586.0.151029-1700)
  • Windows IoT Core project templates (Version 1.0)
  • Microsoft Azure SDK for .NET (Build 2.9)
  • Windows Bridge for iOS (Build 0.1.160304)
  • Windows UWP samples (Build 3.0.0)
  • Windows Bridge for iOS samples

Modern.IE Test Environments

Modern.IE Test Environments are 90-day pre-configured test Windows VMs specially created for software developers and testers. The different test environments range from IE 6 on Windows XP to Microsoft Edge on Windows 10. To install the IE environment, please click here for further instructions.

Betas

A great way to use VMs is to install beta versions of software. As soon as a software manufacturer releases the first beta, you can install it in a VM without damaging your system and delete it in just a few clicks afterward. For example, right now you can install the beta of new macOS Sierra Updates and test what improvements and new features there will be.

Linux Distributions and Other OSes

There are many OSes that are completely free of charge. With just one click, they can be downloaded and a new VM will be created. The following systems are ready to be downloaded in the Parallels Wizard; of course, you can run a large number of additional OSes in a VM on the Mac.

  • Chromium OS
  • Ubuntu
  • Android
  • Fedora Linux
  • CentOS Linux
  • Debian GNU/Linux
