[QUOTE="boberonicus, post: 632508, member: 50315"] The OP is asking a question that goes beyond simply plugging your USB-enabled camera into your machine. Maxdog, is there any reason you don't want to use your Mac to make serial connections natively? I know that the IOgear USB to serial adapter works on the Mac (a friend uses it). I have one I haven't tested it yet. For USB-to-serial to work within parallels, you'd have to be able to see what COM port the adapter associates with. And all that COM port stuff would have to work within parallels. I suppose I could test it for you via Hyperterminal, but I'm pretty busy just now. Maybe you could take a router and an adapter to an Apple store and ask an eager 20-something to assist? [/QUOTE]
