Enabling USB Devices inside of macOS Catalina VM

Post by georgecox17 »

Trying to get iPhone to be recognised in my Mac VM (from a Windows machine) - i've tried enabling usb 1.1,2.0 and 3.0 and enabling them in Devices > USB dropdown bar

Anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

Running MacOS on non-Apple hardware is not supported here: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=92649

If you are running your Windows installation on Apple Hardware via Boot Camp, which is the only Windows installation method Apple supports, then you need to submit a zipped copy of VBox.log for the Virtual Machine which is affected by this problem using the upload attachment Tab on the message screen.
