Successfully installed Mojave (10.14.6) on my VB (6.1.40), and added the Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-6.1.40.vbox-extpack.
But I cannot get VB to have access to attached USB devices or to shared folders.Copy/Paste does not work either. Details:
(1) USB problem:
In Settings, I enabled USB Controller USB 2.0 and selected an external USB drive (Samsung PSSD T7). When connecting the drive to my Mac, I get the following error message:
(2) Shared Folders problem:Failed to connect USB device Samsung PSSD T7 [0100] to the virtual machine MojaveVirtual.
Details: Failed to create a proxy device for the USB device. (Error: VERR_PDM_NO_USB_PORTS)
In Settings/Shared Folders, I set up two of my host system’s folders as shared folders (Applications, and Downloads). I gave them a new name to be used in VB, granted full access, and set them to automount. However, none of these folders shows up anywhere when I run my MojaveVirtual machine.
I also tried to share these folders from my host using smb, without success (my host user name/pw is not accepted, and neither is guest access).
(3) Lastly, Shared Clipboard and Drag and Drop do not work either, even though they are set up as bidirectional in Settings.
My host system is Mojave 10.14.6 if that should be of any significance – I have not updated so far since I need some 32-bit apps, and want to make sure to get a VirtualMojave up and running before I upgrade my host. I have also tried to install a Mojave virtual machine on another Mac running Ventura (13.1) and VirtualBox 7.0.4, but there I failed to even install Mojave.
Thank you for helping me to configure my Virtual Mojave so that I can overcome the three problems mentioned.
