Cannot connect to apple id using Virtual Box Mac OS High Sierra












0















When I try connecting to the app store, itunes, etc. it returns an error that says "Unexpected error occured". That's it, nothing else.



I have a virtual machine running Mac OS High Sierra. I am using Oracle VM VirtualBox Manager. I have given my mac environment a "serial number" using VBoxManage setextradata “MacOS High Sierra” VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiSystemSerial "number" When I go to Apple>About this Mac it lists the correct serial number I assigned it too. Before hand, it would just list the serial number as 0.



My question is, how do I connect my mac environment to my apple id for app store, itunes, etc?

  • Did you check console to see if it provides more information? The rest of your question would appear to be an XY Problem

  • @Giox I couldn’t figure out a solution using Virtual box. I switched to VMWare and that is working for me so far.
