Can't Receive Device Input

Post by Mashimaro7 »

I know this has been posted before, but I'm unable to use my mouse or keyboard on Mac OSX Mojave.

I installed it and got to the intro screen, it says auto capture is turned on on the top, but I can't proceed with the installation because I can't use my mouse or either of my keyboards(laptop one or external), touchpad doesn't work either. I read somewhere to make sure "Mouse integration" is turned on, but the option is greyed out for me. Also, I removed all my filters which was another solution i found, still no luck.

Can somebody help me figure this out please? Thanks.

Edit: I forgot to mention, i should also note that in my USB settings, it only lets me pick USB 1.1, which might be what's causing the issue? There doesn't seem to be any way to select USB 2.0 or 3.0.

Sorry, I found a fix. For anyone with the same issue, you need to install the extension pack from the Virtual box download page, i cant post a link, but it shouldn't be too hard to find.
