   If you are using a newer MacBook Pro, it’s the fn+F8 key combination, not the apple key and f8. The fn key is at the extreme lower left corner of the keyboard.

   None of these suggestions worked for me. Any other suggestions as to start a Parallels machine in Safe Mode on a Mac 10.5.5?

   Marie, you need to post what the actual computer is. You posted the OS version, which doesn’t help.

   Thanks for the post. I had a virus in XP and couldn’t delete the offending files. This solution on your forum really helped me solve this.

   make sure Spaces is disabled… fn+F8 will cause Spaces to intervene before you can get to the boot screen

    you can get to the Safe Mode by clicking the little keyboard at the bottom of the parallels screen and clicking the F8 upon startup of windows

    At newer macbook (like mine MacBookPro5,2) you need to press

    a. cmd+fn+F8 (if you have fuction keys as defaults)
    or
    b. cmd+F8 (if you have F1, F2, etc. keys as standard fuction keys)

    you can check yours from System Preferences–>Keyboard–>Keyboard “Use all F1,F2, etc. keys as standard fuction keys”
