Hi Michael, eventually I had to purchase Parallels 9 because VirtualBox wouldn’t allow to successfully run Mavericks guests on my Mavericks host running on an i7-iMac.
Parallels usually works fine if you _disable_ power saving on the guests!! Sometimes but I experience hanging guests! Only chance to recover from that is to kill the VM in question from within the host system and restart it (which means a cold reboot). This usually happens when there is a lot of load with e.g. two VMs running with 7 cores each on the i7 (which has 8 real cores only). This can also happen when you’re creating a snapshot, while the 2nd machine is very busy. Sometimes also the keyboard’s CAPSLOCK is engaged, although the keyboard’s CAPSLOCK LED isn’t lit. Recovering from that you will be pressing the key a couple of times until the LED is back in sync with what you type.
