macOS Sierra and Parallels Desktop
With every new release from Apple, Parallels Desktop consistently builds a better product for customers. With macOS Sierra’s release, we wanted to touch base and provide some peace of mind. Simply put: we’ve got you covered. Our engineers have been hard at work since they got their hands on the developer’s release!
Upgrading to macOS Sierra provides huge benefits that make your Mac even more useful and fun while ensuring that you have the latest security features and performance enhancements. Here are two more reasons to upgrade: It’s free and easy!
Allow Apple Remote Desktop to access your Mac Use Remote Management in Sharing preferences to allow others to access your computer using Apple Remote Desktop. On your Mac, choose Apple menu System Preferences, click Sharing, then select the Remote Management checkbox. If prompted, select the tasks remote users are permitted to perform.
Then there’s your desktop, which is different from Mac to Mac, and doesn’t work very well on the average cloud-based solution. Apple’s solution is just to move it all to iCloud, which is perfect (provided you have enough iCloud storage). Now, your desktop will be the same on all your Macs, as will your documents folder. Curious if you know that the correct MS Remote Desktop app is being used. There is a version that comes with Office 2011 for Mac, not sure about 2016 for Mac. Installing the new does not remove the old. I've had occasions when the old came up. You can verify by having your user describe the icon for the app.
What are we most excited for with macOS Sierra?
Siri: Our favorite virtual assistant makes her debut on Mac. No matter what you’re doing, Siri is always available to help you become a multi-tasking pro.
Universal Clipboard: Copying from one device and pasting on another? It may be 2016 with technological advances progressing faster than light speed, but this is easily one of the best upcoming features for macOS Sierra and iOS users.
Optimized Storage: Is your hard drive filling up or maxed out? macOS Sierra can automatically store rarely used files in iCloud and keep them available on demand. Additionally, think of all those old files you no longer use. Find and remove them with ease so you have room for new ones.
Auto-Unlock with your Apple Watch: Rockin’ an Apple Watch keeps getting cooler. Automatically log into your Mac when you’re wearing your Apple Watch. No typing. No password required. Seriously awesome.
