This usually means that you are not a member of the vboxusers group or you do not have write permissions to the .virtualbox folder.

maybe but i can't check my usb permission with the terminal - the command syntax seen in the topic 'http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=23701' does not work

Is the flash-disk mounted in the host-system? (i.e. shown in Finder sidebar as "Volume") - if yes, just eject (in host/Finder) and see what the Guest does. If no -> there's an update at http://frank.heydlauf.de/jm2c/archive/8 ... -usb-drive. Search for "kextstat". May help....

This seems to be to do with the VM being in fullscreen mode, as described in Ticket #14356.

Go to the settings of the VM, then User Interface and click on the View box to turn it off.

Seriously? Did you even read the thread?
- It's more than 6 years old.
- It's about host OSX 10.6.1.
- It's about VirtualBox 3.0.10.
- It's reported as fixed in 3.1.12.
I fail to see how relevant your answer might be.
