As you said - there must be a very significant portion of Parallels customer base that is buying the software for this sole purpose - I can't hardly imagine I'm in the minority on this. It seems totally absurd that the only posts I can find on this are 6-12 month old and have no replies (or totally useless replies from some foreign support agent) and that there is no documentation on the site for accomplishing this. Hardly any configuration required, and worked nearly out of the box. VirtualBox, a free software, all I had to do was add the default gateway to my hosts file and it worked. ![]() I have spent probably 4-6 hours searching google and these forums, trying different configurations, and still can't get it to work. Parallels is fairly expensive software that I bought solely for the purpose of testing my Angular app in IE/Edge, and I can't even get it to work. Here how to do it: Ĭlick to expand.I completely agree with you. I am giving up - downloaded Virtualbox (free) and the now also freely available windows OSes. (and none of what is said here results in me being able to access mac localhost from the virtual internet explorer - I have been successful with varying setups in the past, but now again, I spent hours, no luck though) I am not really interested in networking and that side of things should "just work". There must be a considerable amount of people buying parallels for the same reason as I did. I don't understand why there are no clear instructions on how to do this. ![]() Every second new release of parallels recreates the problem from scratch, every new windows OS too. ![]() It has been such a hassle to find out how to hook up IE to the mac localhost. The only reason I need it, is to check my (ruby on rails) web apps on Internet Explorer - using my development server, i.e. I have been a user of parallels for very many years.
