ほとんどの人が見逃す隠れた機能

  • 旅行 モード: Actions, then Travel Mode, caps power draw when you work on battery.
  • Free trial VMs: The download wizard installs Linux, Windows and other OSs at no cost.
  • Game controller support: Pair a controller and play windows ゲーム like Rocket League and Fall Guys.

Parallels Common Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake #1: Giving the VM every core you own

❌ 間違い: Assigning all CPUs and RAM, which starves mac os and slows both sides.

✅ 右: Give the virtual machine half your cores and roughly a third of your memory.

Mistake #2: Skipping Parallels Tools

❌ 間違い: Running windows without Tools, so drag-and-drop and screen resolution scaling never work.

✅ 右: Install Parallels Tools right after setup and reboot the guest once.

Mistake #3: Expecting Intel software on apple silicon

❌ 間違い: Buying old x86 software and hoping it installs on an M-series Mac.

✅ 右: Check the vendor page first, since Intel applications run through emulation and can stumble.

Parallels Troubleshooting

Problem: The VM will not start after a macOS update

原因: The kernel extensions no longer match the newest Mac OS build.

修理: Update to the latest versions of Parallels, then restart your computer once.

Problem: Windows keeps asking for activation

原因: Parallels supplies the installer, but not the windows license itself.

修理: Buy a key from Microsoft and enter it under Settings, then Activation.

Problem: Shared folders are missing inside Windows

原因: Sharing was switched off, or Parallels Tools failed during install.

修理: Open Configure, then Sharing, and set Mac folders to Share All Disks.

📌 注記: If none of these fix your issue, contact Parallels support.

Can Parallels be trusted?

Yes. Parallels International GmbH has shipped this software since 2006. Over 7 million mac users run it. Apple notarises the app, and it sells through the Mac App Store.

What is the purpose of Parallels?

It runs windows and linux inside a virtual machine on your Mac. You get access to windows apps without rebooting into Boot Camp or buying a second computer.

Paid. Standard Edition costs $49.99 and Pro Edition costs $59.99. A free trial is available, but Windows itself still needs its own licence key.
