Most people have this problem. one or two do not. Hopefully they will fix this one day

NOTE USB 3.0 ports are not currently supported by VirtualBox for use with USB flash and hard drives. If you get the error "USB device [name and UUID of device] is busy with a previous request. Please try again later.", try using either a 2.0 or 1.1 USB port (many desktops include both 2.0 and 3.0 ports, but newer laptops may only have 3.0 USB ports).

Hi everyone, I have had the same problem and I tried with two different USB 3.0 devices. The thing is, I think that was the problem, because when I changed to USB 2.0 device it worked immediately (without any filters, although you need to have the USB 2.0 support enabled before booting your VM).

So if nothing else works for your USB 3.0, try a USB 2.0 device instead! :)

PS. All my USB ports in my laptop are USB 3.0...
