Problem adding VDI file on OSX

Post by ebt »

Sooo, I've previously installed to VM's from iso images. Now Im trying to import a VDI file and it generates the following screen to enable me to pick a VDI.... except NOTHING on the screen can be clicked/selected. My mac just pings/flashes the screen and sits there. Even the cancel button doesnt work and the only way to leave the screen is to hit the 'esc' key.

Soooo, any words of wisdom?

i43 [dot] tinypic [dot] com [slash] 2lx74au.png is a screenshot of the dialogue. I cant create it as a link due to board restrictions on new accounts.

Create a new Machine
Select your host OSes, and Ram
When it comes to Hard Drive, Select Use Existing, browse to it and open it. Continue as normal.
