VMWare Fusion 3 won't run after Lion 10.7.4 update

1. Try reinstalling the software. This should clear any software glitches.

2. No, you can't downgrade Mac OS X, other than the original Lion install (on your install disks)

3. Yes, you could probably do that. You could probably back up VMware software to your external drive (or the rest of your stuff), install Lion on your Mac HDD, then put everything back on the old HDD.

Lesson learned: if something is wrong with a program, check for updates.

osx 10.7.4 will not work with vmware 4.1.1

i get the same erros

"Unable to retrieve kernel zone size"

"Failed to initialize monitor device."

"Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to"

Thanks, solved my problem too.

i have the same problem, and solved, thanks

Alanis,

How can I update to VMware 3.1.4 ? When I click on the VMware menu/look for updates, it sends me to the VMware website where they try to sell me version 4, for 50 USD.

Thanks.

also not work with

Version 4.0.2 (491587)

Just noting the original post on this issue by Alanisnotalwayshappy, I had the same problem

Running 10.7.2, VMWare Fusion 3 and WinXP and got the following errors:

"Unable to retrieve kernel zone size"

"Failed to initialize monitor device."

"Cannot find a valid peer process to connect to"

Used this link to update to VMWare 3.1.4
https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/info/slug/desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_fus ion/3_0

And it fixed the issue!

Thank you

Thanks had same issue updating VMWare solved problem🙂

update from 4.0.1.to 4.1.2 will resolve this issue, if check for update is not working still you can manually download 4.1.2 from VMware web site.

Thanks,
