Q: Upgrading to OSX. Questions about Parallels
I am about to upgrade to OSX El Capitan from 10.6.8. (I know it's about time)
My questions(s)?
1.) Will Parallels Desktop 9 for Mac (v. 9.0.2451) run on OSX?
I use Parallels to run Windows 8.1, which I use to run Quicken Home and Business 2015 R 11 (24.1.11.1).
So I'm assuming if Parallels 9 is compatible then the Windows and Quicken will be as well?
2.) I am also running Office 2008 for Mac - which I assume will not be working after the upgrade?? Does anyone have any experience with Office for Mac on OSX.
Thanks for any insight or info you can pass on.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Nope, both (might) need updates. Parallels at least to version 10, but preferably to 11. Office 2008 might still work, but reports vary; version 2011 works fine for me.
