Hi, I'm very new to all this and I have installed Virtualbox and I'm having a couple of issues after installing macos x. Just to explain a little why I am setting up a VM, I have an idea for an app and I need a mac to do it on. Firstly, I can't get the resolution to fit my monitor for my Mac to fit on my screen.
In our previous post we have shown you that how to install macOS Sierra 10.12 on VMware and now in this article, I’m going to show you that how to install macOS Sierra 10.12 on VirtualBox. Apple has announced the next version of its Mac operating system: Sierra.Of course, the real change is that, after fifteen years, Apple has finally ditched the “OS X” moniker.
I've tried everything. I have Youtubed and read everything and the message I'm getting is that my Mac which is in/on my win 10 and I'm the host, and that means I can't get vbox guest additions installed and working properly, because I'm not the guest. Is this right or am I doing something wrong? And, Secondly, when I try to intall xcode it gives a message that I can't install because mac version needs be older than what is installed in the virtualbox, before you sayanything I updated VB to the new version 5.14 and it still does the same as 5.12. I hope this all makes sense and I hope someone knows the the answer to these riddles. Thanks Aldo Posts: 2 Joined: 4. Jul 2018, 17:16.
I split your post from the thread ', your questions did not really fit in. We're going to need to see a VM log from a complete VM run:. Start the VM from cold-boot (not from a paused or saved state) / Login / Shutdown the VM (force close it if you have to). With the VM completely shut down (not paused or saved), right-click on the VM in the VirtualBox Manager and select 'Show Log'. Save only the first 'VBox.log', ZIP it and attach it to your response. See the 'Upload attachment' tab below the reply form.
It’s not impossible, however. Some of the folks at the have figured out a process that works.
The only thing not working is sound, which for some reason is highly distorted or nonexistent. Other than that, though, this is macOS High Sierra, running smoothly in VirtualBox. To make things a little easier for people, we’ve combined methods from a few different forum threads into a single, step-by-step tutorial, complete with screenshots.
Let’s dive in. RELATED: NOTE: In order to get this working, you will need access to a real Mac in order to download High Sierra. You could, we suppose, obtain a High Sierra ISO by other means, but we don’t recommend it. Borrow a friend’s Mac for an hour if you don’t have one, and you should be fine—everything beyond step one of this tutorial can be done on your Windows PC.
If you’re on a Mac and want a macOS virtual machine for use on that Mac, we recommend checking out out instead, because it and is a lot easier to work with. Ready to get started? Let’s jump in! Step One: Create a macOS High Sierra ISO File To start, we’ll need to create an ISO file of macOS High Sierra’s installer, so we can load it in VirtualBox on our Windows machine. Grab your borrowed Mac, head to the Mac App Store, search for Sierra, and click “Download.” When the process is done, the installer will launch—that’s okay, just close it with Command+Q. We don’t want to upgrade your friend’s Mac; we just need the downloaded files. To convert those files to an ISO, we’ll need to use the Terminal, which you can find in Applications Utilities.
