I'm trying to mount a USB device, an IrDA adapter. Virtualbox finds the vendor-id and the product-id, but when trying to mount V-box returns:
-----------
Faild to connect to USB-device Okänd enhet 9710:7780 [0001] to the virtuel machine Windows.

USB device '<unknown>' with UUID {a85c2519-77e7-404d-8524-11c413180d16} is in use by someone else.

Resultatkod: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)

I understand the there is a conflict somewhere but can't figure out where to solve it....
Suggestions are most welcome

Try releasing it from the MAC host before you attach it to the guest.
