Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac is the fastest, easiest, and most powerful solution for running Windows applications on a Mac –– without rebooting. Easily switch between Mac and Windows apps. Powerful performance lets you run Windows productivity applications, and demanding graphical apps, without compromise. I also have Parallels 10, Windows 8, and Dropbox is installed on my Mac OS X 10.10.5. Prior to upgrading to Windows 8 and Parallels 10, I had no problem syncing Dropbox between Mac and Parallels. After the upgrade, anything Microsoft Office related cannot be opened from the Mac side.
This downloadable version of Parallels Desktop 14 Standard Edition for Mac supports systems running Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 or later and comes with a 1-year license. This fast, user-friendly, and powerful application is designed for running Windows on a Mac without needing to reboot. Get up and running in minutes and bring your files, applications, browser bookmarks, and more from your Windows system to your Mac. Switch between Mac and Windows applications, launch Windows applications from your Mac's dock, and use Mac gestures in your Windows applications. You can also use the Touch Bar with Windows, as well as copy and paste or drag and drop between Windows and Mac. Powerful performance lets you run common Windows applications, like Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office, and Visio, or easily run more demanding applications, such as Microsoft Visual Studio or Adobe Photoshop.
Keep the look and feel of macOS, or use the familiar Windows desktop, and leverage Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, or other cloud services. Parallels Desktop 14 runs on macOS High Sierra, macOS Sierra, and OS X El Capitan, and supports a variety of operating systems, including Windows 10, Ubuntu and other Linux distributions, and older versions of Windows. In the Installation Assistant, select your primary usage scenario, such as Travel Mode, which extends battery life on the go, and Parallels Desktop will optimize performance for you. Allocate up to four virtual CPUs and 8GB of virtual memory per virtual machine. 24/7 premium support is included for 30 days, as is Parallels Toolbox, with over 30 utilities to help simplify everyday tasks, such as cleaning your drive, securing private files, taking screenshots, or downloading videos, all with a single click. Virtual Machines that were created in Parallels Desktop version 3 or 4 and never run in any other version are not going to work in Parallels Desktop 14.
