While I was in Cincinnati, Parallels had trouble suspending, and just hung. I killed it, and now it won't start back up - it's saved in the hung state. Anyone have any idea what to do? The menu options for restoring a snapshot are all disabled...

Update: I called Parallels support, and they were helpful. There was a silly request to reboot the Mac, but the basic problem was two files that made Parallels believe it was still backing up:

  • bigUglyName.mem
  • config.sav

The .mem file had a large hex looking name in curly braces - deleting that and the .sav file made everything work again.
