Connecting iPhone to windows VM fails
Posted: 23. Aug 2021, 08:25
Hello there!
I have installed VirtualBox 6.1.24 on macOS Big Sur. So far, everything works fine, except for one crucial issue: I cannot USB-forward my iPhone to a Windows VM (32 bit Windows 10 (error "Failed to attach"), neither can I forward it to a virtual macOS 11). I tried it with USB 1, 2 and 3, no change. Other USB devices do forward just fine.
Due to privacy issues, I do not want to upload my whole log, but here is the crucial part:
I happen to remember that I had done the same thing using Parallels, and there was an extra Pop-Up asking me whether Parallels could access the iPhone (in the typical macOS-security pop-up style). Maybe Apple is a little overprotective of it's stuff here, can this implemented in VirtualBox as well? Or are there any other pointers?
Thank you very much for your time
