virtualbox - iPod not recognised in Windows guest on Kubuntu - Ask Ubuntu
i need sync ipod touch (6th gen) on windows 7 guest using virtualbox on kubuntu machine. in process, ipod not getting detected on windows host.
i have installed guest additions on guest os , moreover, ipod detected on kubuntu machine (as 5th gen!).
bus 003 device 006: id 05ac:12aa apple, inc. ipod touch 5.gen [a1421]
when using ubuntu, issue did not occur , ipod got detected on virtual machine without configuration.
is problem kde plasma? possible perform sync?
here of details system:
os: kubuntu 16.04 (64-bit) kernel version: 4.4.0-45 kde plasma version: 5.6.5
i have tried many virtualbox versions:
version 5.1.8-111374 extension pack of same version version 5.0.28-111378 extension pack of same version version 5.0.24-108355 (downloaded discover) extension pack of same version
i answering own question have found solution particular problem.
after rostislav, discovered none of usb devices being recognized in virtualbox itself!
- the extension pack installed.
- the guest additions installed in windows 7 guest machine.
- i had selected usb 2.0 controller in settings.
i needed run sudo adduser yourusername vboxusers
(and logout , login again)! installation process of virtualbox did not automatically. this answer helped me solve issue.
if else having same problem, can check if member of vboxusers
group or not.
cat /etc/group | grep vboxusers
i hope helps!
