Hint connecting Neximage to windows VM in Parallels
I've spent a long time trying to get a Neximage 5 working with a MacBook Air on OSX Lion running Vista Home 2006 on Parallels 8. Everytime I plugged the Neximage in to the USB port nothing was detected so I couldn't tell Parallels to use it on the virtual machine, and I couldn't find a driver that would work for OSX to get past that problem. Finally I found if you go into the Parallels Desktop -> Preferences then there is a section for USB prefs, here you have the option to connect any new USB device to the active virtual machine, and Bingo, plug in the Neximage and it is immediately detected by the windows VM, and you're away.
