Parallels desktop for Mac frustrations.
Hello everyone, I'm writing because I'm extremely frustrated with many issues in this software. The largest issue that I'm experiencing is the problem software not recognizing any comports. I think this is a function of my arm based Mac. I in a licensed radio amateur. That means I must use radio programming software. This software according to the company that produces the software should run in a virtual machine that of course is the Arm 64 version of Windows. This appears to be true on the surface, meaning that the program, and your programs will install. Unfortunately when it comes to actually connecting the radios to the computer, because of parallels insistence that there must be an inaccessible dialog box that demands that you okay the communications port to be opened meaning it identifies the cable connected properly but then refuses to actually allow USB data to pass. My question to the group is if the time to go back to VMware? Will VMware run better when it comes to dealing with USB cable communication? Two a completely different frustration. It appears that I cannot do anything without the ubiquitous search box from popping up. Not to mention when the search box isn't popping up, Microsoft teams takes its place. The only workaround that I found it seems to be effective for these two situations is to turn voiceover, and interact with the OS X portion of the computer. Meaning that I go back to doing things on my Mac, meaning going between Windows. Navigating between Windows that are open using voiceover. This approach works about 90% of the time. The other approach is that if there are too many applications open, and my MacBook Pro begins to freeze, I can go over to the force quit applet, and pick the application that is causing all the trouble and forcibly stop it from running. The final frustration occurs when I even attempt to which out to the company for technical support. While I have no problem with "signing in" it would be nice if my only option were not to have a chat and then t. Just simply because most of the time those chat clients are not accessible when one uses either voiceover, or jaws So far, it appears that the only positive take away is the fact that I can use dictation software without too many problems. I am curious to know what people on the list thank you? Just for the record, I have the professional addition of parallels desktop for Mac. I am currently running Mac OS Sonoma 14.1.1 on aM2 Mac. Does anyone have any pearls of wisdom regarding everything I've dictated about? That brings me to the end of this, if there's something that has been written about that dictation software did not catch, please ask me what did I really intend to say. I will be happy to clear up any unintended errors that the dictation software they have created. Sincerely Maurice mines. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.

Best headset to use with navigation apps out and about
Hi I’d like to start experimenting with navigation apps. I will need to purchase a good headset, and I guess this will have to be bone conduction one as I’m totally blind and need to monitor other sounds in the streets. Could you share your experience with such? I know many of you use navigation apps to enhance independent mobility. For me, it’s going to be a tremendous learning curve.
