    PPTP VPN on Sierra - any solutions?

    Ever since Apple dropped PPTP support, I can't connect to my company's VPN servers. A lot of PPTP supported VPN don't work well and are really buggy. For example, Shimo VPN connects but only 20% of things work. I thought about buying Parallels 12 and then connecting through PPTP on Windows, but...

    [wrong thread, delete]

    Ever since Apple dropped PPTP support, I can't connect to my company's VPN servers. A lot of PPTP supported VPN don't work 100% and are really buggy. I thought about buying Parallels 12 and then connecting through PPTP on Windows, but that seems like a hack. Does anyone know if this works or an...

    Storage question with virtual drive

    I've attached these two screens of my drive storage report. Since this is a MacBook Air I'm trying to watch my storage space and it appears as though this 30gb drive is virtual inside the 15gb, which is backwards so I know I'm not looking at it right. I'm trying to see if I need the 15gb, but...

    Better Touch Tool and Parallels

    Hi, I work with subtitles using a Windows program, where I'm constantly precision-navigating video files while typing. So far I've always used a Windows laptop where the built in numpad would control the video file, but I'm now looking to move all my work to my MBP. Using an external numpad or...

    Is anyone successfully running Encompass360 on a Mac that might be willing to give me some pointers? I have installed Parallels and Windows, but keep getting error messages about connecting to the server. Am desperate to NOT have to buy a POS Windows machine :) Thanks!

    VM, RDP or Parallels

    Curious, looking to see what everyone's take is on this. I work in I.T. and from time to time, I'm sure I'll need to connect to a Windows Server, or merely RDP to a Windows computer. For those of you that are 'into' this, do you: - merely RDP into the computer of choice - dual boot your Mac...

    Pesky icons in status bar

    Hi all! Does anyone know how to get rid of the icons in your status bar other than the command-drag option? I've had an icon stuck up there for about a year now that I can't seem to get rid of (see attached screenshot). Considering the "Windows Vista" in the top left, I'm assuming its leftover...

    Hamachi on Parallels

    Hello everyone, I'm running Windows 7 via Parallels 11 on OS X El Capitan. I would like to play Worms World Party Remastered (or any other game) over the network with my friends through Hamachi. I know how to install Hamachi and set it up properly because I have done it on Windows computers...

    Bootcamp/Parallels - Silly questions

    I am planning to run Windows on my new iMac. For work purposes I would like to treat Windows and OSX as two separate computers to keep work separate from my personal things and so I would like to use bootcamp. I do, however, have a couple of Windows programs that are not work related, so I...
