Mar 24, 2021 New Apple Silicon iMacs discovered in macOS Big Sur 11.3 beta 5. Parallels now supports Apple M1 systems. (Video) Apple releases macOS Big Sur 11.3 beta 8. IPhone 13 smaller notch design. I installed Big Sur public beta as a VM in Parallels 15. Booting up and logging in fine, but display is stuck at 1024x768. I tried installing parallels tools but that made it not be able to boot, so I had to re-install Big Sur as a VM. So I am on a clean install but the graphics are poor. Parallels Desktop 13 for Mac got its official release on Tuesday. The thirteenth version of the Windows virtualization software comes with numerous new features including support for macOS High.
Parallels 13 Big Sur Ca
Apple has at last released macOS Big Sur! First previewed at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in June 2020, and then finally released to the world in November 2020, macOS Big Sur has had the longest beta development cycle of any macOS release in recent history.
The silver lining: engineers at Parallels® used this time to work in lockstep with their Apple counterparts in an effort to ensure that users will have the best possible Parallels Desktop® experience once migrated to macOS Big Sur.
The greatest amount of Parallels engineering work came in response to a significant change in the underpinnings of macOS Big Sur. As a Mac user, you may have seen dialogs (like the one shown in Figure 1) when using macOS Catalina or macOS Mojave.
The change in the macOS necessitated the re-architecture of Parallels Desktop (seen in Figure 2).
While this figure illustrates what may appear to be a small change, it required the largest amount of engineering work in Parallels Desktop 16 and the equivalent of 25 man-years of engineering effort. This change means that even more of the performance and security of Parallels Desktop will be derived from Apple’s updates to the internal architecture of macOS going forward.
In addition to the work diagrammed in Figure 2, the Parallels engineers have added a number of new features to Parallels Desktop 16, and to bundled products Parallels Toolbox and Parallels Access, including:
- macOS Big Sur support
- 3D support in macOS VMs
Learn more about these features in Video 1.
