No USB Devices Found

Post by Tano2 »

Host: OSX Mavericks.
I've updated VB from 5.0.2 to 5.0.8 installed the extensions. Before the update it could read my devices via USB1, when updated no USB Devices are found even if the drivers from my devices are updated.

Does any have this problem; what can I do to solve this?

Attach a vbox.log for one of your guests.

With the VM fully shut down, right click it in the VB GUI. Select "Show Log" and save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip file. Attach the zip here.

BTW, about the only USB 1.1 devices are keyboards and mice. Switching guests to USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 should help.

The log you sent says you are still running VB 5.0.2 with no extension pack installed.

Run a guest, shut it down then attach its VBox.log.

What does that have to do with USB devices?

Still need the log.

Nothing, that's what happened when I tried to power on the VM, Kali won't power on. Should I just try to reinstall VB?

No. There is something wrong with your Kali guest set-up. Without a log it's impossible to tell what's wrong with it.

Oh, dammit. I'll see if the reinstall works with the current version.

You need to edit the title of your first post btw. It has nothing to do with your problem.
