mpack wrote:"Busy with a previous request" always means that something else (i.e. the host) is already using the device, which basically can't happen if you followed the advice that should have been found by Googling:
- Install the extension pack.
- Enable USB and EHCI in the VM settings.
- Add a USB filter to match the device.
- plug the device in AFTER the VM has finished booting up, and say yes when prompted to allow the VBox USB driver to be installed on the host.
- Unplug and replug the device.
Hello all,
I just ran into this issue and think i might have found the missing step, that may work for the rest of us.......
To keep mpacks's list in order, I would place this step in-between 3 and 4.
- Open up Window's Device Manager, on the HOST, Expand the Tree that your Device is related to(in this case Network adapters), Right click on the Driver and Uninstall.
Also, if you have any 3rd party tools or driver software running on the HOST, please remove it or make sure the services and applications are not running.
On step 5, if unplugging and replugging the device doesn't do the trick, try Unplugging ALL the USB devices on the HOST, wait a few seconds and plug them back into the same ports they were pulled from.
Good Luck
