They can either both be plugged in all the time. Try to have at least two Time Machine drives. Corrupted drives can't be cloned.Ĭorruption is real, as you know. Once a Time Machine drive gets corrupted (hardware failure, or being disconnected / losing power at a bad time) Disk Utility can take days, weeks or never to try to fix it. Glad I could share some info, even if it doesn't truly help all that much. I'm just trying to avoid any more mistakes. Thank you so much - I appreciate your comments. I've had to do that in the past and it's pretty annoying to have to reboot your computer to work on another program (and not have access to email and other programs in the process), but it may come to that. I may end up doing as you recommend, i.e., having a separate boot drive.

kind of forced into it.Īnd, I'm retired now and farming full time and I can't afford ArchiCad anymore. So, I'd like to have all of those functions working again on my desktop, but that means that ArchiCad no longer functions. I host a database for my sheep that is synced with my iPhone, and I was having real compatibility issues with that as well. Pages and Numbers can't swap out documents with the other devices.

The email on my iMac just continually crashes. I upgraded to Mojave because my email, Pages, and Numbers are having issues because they aren't in a compatible state with my iPhone and iPad. I couldn't clone it onto a new hard drive. I tried to clone it with Carbon Copy, but you get an alert that Apple's code is copywritten and can't be copied. It is still sorta working sometimes, but given that a whole rewrite takes 5 hours, I'm very nervous about trying to go back to Sierra based on this hard drive. After the install, it won't even mount sometimes.

My "BackUp" drive started failing right after completing the upgrade to Mojave. You are probably familiar with Time Machine. I haven't done the Parallels conversion, yet. But, backups always recommended before any major changes anyway. Have never installed an old version on top of a working installation before, so don't know what would happen. Since you created the VM from installation media, I assume you can backup your iMac, reinstall Sierra, then restore any missing user files.? I know nothing is lost when reinstalling the same MacOS version or moving forwards. If you have any possibility of restoring your iMac to Sierra, or reinstalling Sierra, that would be the best option if you need to remain on AC 19. but I've found that that doesn't perform very well either.

You can also create a Windows virtual machine (requires a 64 bit Windows 10 license) and install the Windows version of AC in that VM. Conceivably you can share the applications folder with the VM and launch the app that is stored on the iMac's drive vs installing into the VM's virtual drive - but I'd not recommend that.

You would be better to reboot your iMac from a bootable Sierra partition, but it sounds like it might be too late for that.įor your questions: Yes, you have to install AC 19 in the virtual machine - or at least download and install the WIBU driver - and then assign the USB keyplug device to the virtual machine (devices can only be connected to the host or a VM - not both at the same time).

The MacOS VM does NOT run in Safe Mode - rather, Parallels just does not offer much in the way of virtual graphics acceleration, regardless of how powerful your host iMac's graphics adapter might be. It works - and is useful for running an old version to help with a conversion, or just to open an old project - but I've found it not usable for normal work. The main issue is graphics acceleration - whether it is a MacOS or Windows virtual machine. ARCHICAD under Parallels Desktop is not something I'd recommend based on a few limited tests of my own over the years.
