Can i install mac os high sierra on 32 bit virtualbox
I’m pretty good with this stuff, but this has me stumped … I went through your process VERY specifically (even deleted and started over) … but no matter what OS I select, it still starts to a black screen … nothing moves.
I’m on an 8 core Windows box with 64GB RAM so I allocated it 32GB ram and put the vmdk file on the local SSD drive. Should have plenty of resources…
Any thoughts?

https://tobiwashere.de/2017/10/virtualbox-how-to-create-a-macos-high-sierra-vm-to-run-on-a-mac-host-system/Friends, I configured 128MB of video memory in VirtualBox but the Mac OS only recognizes 4MB.

hi , ho can i decreasery space on drive cause 100Go is too muche for me
Hey dear, you can’t do that, for that we have to create a new file, which is very time consuming for us. Sorry for that but now we can’t do it.
I am not able vmdk file from download1.hfsx
hi Friend after running commands, i click on start button on virtual box and its just showing me blank screen without any information. Please help me on this
Hello,
i: Change the Video Memory Size to 128 MB from Virtual machine settings
ii:Change operating system version from macOS 10.13 High Sierra (64-bit) or macOS 10.12 Sierra (64-bit) to just the Mac OS X (64-bit)
Is there a way to transfer files to this macOS from my windows host?
Thank you.
Not on VirtualBox but you can transfer files from your windows host to macOS on VMware. https://www.wikigain.com/install-macos-mojave-on-vmware-windows/
Hi does anyone know if it is possible to run this on older CPUs? I would be interested to know.
In my testing I could only get this booting on a system with an Intel Coffee Lake CPU, otherwise it would just give a blank screen, or hang at the line Got boot device =
Did you select Mac OS X 64 bit as a version??
Yes I changed the version to Mac OS X (64-bit) but get the same issue

Then run the code properly. Change your VM name in the code. Quit VirtualBox before executing the code.
Hi I have followed the article and used the code but still have the same issue.
Hello dear, What the error you faced so we can suggest you, what to do?
Hi,
Thank you for the tutorial, it is really great. Though, I have a problem: I can start my VM and use it normally, but it is painfully slow.
VirtualBox and my VM are on a SSD disk. I give more than 6 Go of RAM to the VM, and it is still really slow.
What can I do for that?
Thanks for the guide.
But I have a problem. I just download macOS 10.13.5 High Sierra iso file from another source and searched through the internet for an installation guide and found your page. And during following the guide, found out that I don’t have any ‘vmdk’ file. Could you give some download link or email me only the vmdk file, please? Or I have to download the whole 5-6 gigabytes again?
Here is the link for macOS High Sierra VMDK File.
This worked great. I have tried before with other systems and had problems, but this was very easy to get MacOS up and running. The only problem is the reason I wanted MacOS is to run Xcode, but the current Xcode requires at least 10.13.2 but the image here is only 10.13(.0)
I haven’t yet worked out how to update the OS nor how to get a new later version image. It would be great if you could do an update or another article about how to upgrade.
Try this .iso, its 10.13.4: https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1NCYqmwqgbt_PahzmVmiTtYw59lpArjV7&export=download
Hi Alvin, I cant install it, could you please make vmdk for this please

You’re welcome and thank you for sharing your feedback.
Hi nobodei,
How did you do step 5 on your linux system? I will be lgad if you can explain this to me.
Okay guys so I manage to go through step 5 and it worked well. Thanks
Hi saint,
Virtualbox’s network settings should be identical whether on Windows or Linux, and on both platforms, using the guide’s defaults (also the Virtualbox defaults for me) worked.
Does the machine work, but you simply lack an internet connection? If so, it could be as simple as ticking the “connect network adapter” box on the VM’s panel. Otherwise, and this might sound dumb if you already did it, but make sure you added the extension pack to Virtualbox since things probably won’t work/show up without it. Odds are you’ve tried these already but good luck!
Hi there! I’d like to install the Xcode App but it asks for a v10.13.2 or later, and when I try to upgrade it doesen’t work. Can you help me, please? Thanks in advance.
Did you figure this out?
Could you find solution for the upgrade issue?
I did all necessary steps needed to do after that the booted it worked perfectly but when it finished everything it rebooted again resulting in the codes coming back
Same here…
Same here.
Is there any fix?
My fault. Names on step 5 were not the same.
Thank you for feedback. Good luck
Has someone already connected and used with iTunes his iPhone to the High Sierra virtual machine?
OK. having an issue with amd ryzen 3 cpu running on win 10 professional. vm loads but only see a black screen. already changed all of the video settings to ones stated before. any suggestions for a fix?
You can follow this updated guide: https://www.wikigain.com/fix-virtualbox-macos-high-sierra-screen-resolution-1920×1080-4k-5k/
I have a problem with the USB devices.
The VM has been perfectly installed. Everything is working. I’ve installed xCode. However, I can not connect my iPhone to this VM. Indeed, I have activated all the options in USB (2.0), I mounted my iPhone and when I launch the VM, the iPhone is well captured however I do not access to it.
Itunes tells me that no device is connected to my VM.
I do not know where the problem may come from. I tried everything, but to no available.
I use as host Windows 7. The version of virtual box that I use is 5.2.8. I installed the oracle extension which has the same version of virtual box.
If anyone could help me.
I’ve tried many sites macos high Sierra installing on virtualbox 5.2.x but got same error: I start the vbox, then it shows virtualbox logo, then it shows codes in black screen, then it restarts the VM and again the same process repeats. I’ve tried many solutions and many other sites macos. Please give me any solutions for this problem to fix. Thanks in advance. From regards Chandra Das
Select the version Mac OS X 64 from VirtualBox Settings.
Also done not helped
I cant find the 64bit stuff on virtualbox. help
You need to enable Intel VT or AMD VT from your computer BIOS.
“Welcome” instalation screen freezes when I try to choose a language… :/
The VM is slow even if I’ve set all the memory and processor settings. Any idea?
The virtual machine it’s really slow. Is this normal? I’ve set 128MB video memory and 4GB RAM and 4 CPU and I have 16GB RAM on my host. Any idea?
How can I increase VRAM (Display ram from within iOS)?
Umm.. so for those of us with unstable internet connections, any chance of getting a .torrent version of this 5GB+ file. Thanks if it’s doable.
when I paste this command line(
VBoxManage setextradata “MAC” “VBoxInternal/Devices/smc/0/Config/DeviceKey”
“ourhardworkbythesewordsguardedpleasedontsteal(c)AppleComputerInc”)
tells me it is not recognized as internal or external command
What’s your Virtual Machine Name that you’ve created?
virtualbox showed the error at startup, it was enough to disable it in the USB options 🙂
All virtual box versio code is same are not?
No, they are different. You’ve to run all the code to cmd one by one. Make sure quit VirtualBox before running the code.
Thank you so much! It just works)
Welcome and thanks for sharing your positive feedback dear.
Great work. The install works fine. For going full screen I used next command: VBoxManage setextradata “VM station name” VBoxInternal2/EfiGraphicsResolution 1920×1080
But I’m wondering if there is a fix for following issues which I am facing:
Location service: seems to fail. However my windows host is able to perform this without any issue. I guess this is the reason why Maps remains black as well.
iMessage and Facetime : unable to log in.
Mail and Safari: whenever I hover over a hyperlink, the full frame becomes black.
Currently, There is no fix to this issues on VirtualBox because macOS do not support it and but in VMware, there are not this issues.
Remember that iMessage and Facetime don’t work on VMware too because Apple knows that it’s not real MacBook or iMac then it can’t authenticate.
It worked! Thank you so much for providing this tutorial.
I am experiencing 1 problem, cannot log in to itunes for use of imessage.
Any insight on how to correct?
Hey dear, I am sorry but everyone has this issue, and it can’t be fixed right now.
It worked!
But i cannot connect to the internet.
I cannot select NAT Network…
Thanks for sharing your feedback. Quit VirtualBox and reopen then go to the VM settings and you should be able to select NAT.
P.S. make sure the Virtual Machine or macOS is shut down.
Internet is working after restarting and following Faiz Orz directions.
then I suggest you install macOS High Sierra on VMware because it’s supported there and work very well.

Updated: The video is removed from YouTube 'Sorry guys'For sound install unmodified AppleHDA.kext from 10.13.1 using Kext Utility 2.6.6. Remember to disable SIP first as you can’t change system kexts with SIP on. It should also speed things up little bit.
Thank you for the great job! Once installed, can it be updated within the guest machine/virtualbox?
Yeah it can be updated, but sometimes it doesn’t work then I don’t suggest you to update it, in that case, we will try to update the file to the latest version as soon as possible.
Very Helpful! I now have maxOS and Xcode running on my Windows 7 after following the steps and using the files provided here! Thank you very much!

That’s awesome and here is the guide to fix screen resolution: https://www.wikigain.com/fix-macos-high-sierra-screen-resolution-virtualbox/
I’ve followed the instructions, but the install screen goes through the inital white lines of text and then it reboots. Never gets to the Mac OS install splash screen.
The problem is this that you did not quit the VirtualBox before adding the code to cmd.

Please post link here when you update how to fix screen resolution!
Stay up to date with us. Today or tomorrow. I’m going to post this (Fix screen resolution on macOS High Sierra on VirtualBox) article.
1 i downloaded the parts how do i combined them?
2 will macos uppdate automaticly?
Just right-click on one of the parts then extract it via Winrar or 7zip.
ok, i will try again today. can you tell me whats about old and new code? do we use just the new code? or both maybe?
First, use the old one if it didn’t work then give a try to the new code.
Use:
cd /D “C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\”
(note the added /D to also change drive) in case you run the vbox code from a different drive such as D:
Also, I found that choosing just “Mac OS X (64-bit)” instead of macOS 10.13, etc, cured the black screen issue for me.
Thanks for sharing your feedback.
This actually worked for me. Thanks!!
Good 😀
How great you people are. I loved the way you share your opinion with other visitors.
How does one update such an installation? I’m on 10.13 beta 1 (17A264c), App Store sees an update to beta 6, but I tried installing twice, and it remains on beta 1.
I have tried to install this a couple times. I get to the screen with the coding installing it then it gets to the point where is says boot-args =usb=0x800 keepsyms=1 -v -serial =0x1 as the last line and it freezes from there and doesn’t move.
Do you quit VirtualBox before adding the code to CMD?
No i had virtual box open. Is that maybe my problem?
Yeah, You did not read the article carefully. Exit the VirtualBox before adding the code to cmd.
I thought it meant the virtual machine itself not the whole program. I will try that though. Thanks
Good luck
when i am trying to put the code in cmd i keep getting errors that these are not recongnised as commands
Did you change the Virtual Machine Name in the code?
I am not getting the white coding on the black screen. please guide me
Set your video memory to 128 MB, and change the operating system version to OS X (64).
Works, a little unstable at times but works. Cheers
This is the beta version. Some problems it has.
I know, was merely to make sure other people were aware

Worked like a charm. The only problem i had was VM was not giving me the option to implement a 64 bit virtual machine. All i had to do was to enable “virtualization” in the BIOS. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your positive feedback dear and It would help a lot of other people also.
Sven, black screen indicate that 128 MB has NOT been assign to the Display. Make sure to slide the Video Memory indicator from left all the way to the right.
Regards
For Black Screen set your Video Memory to 64 MB and Chipset = PIIX3.
Got it working on VirtualBox on my first try! Great job man!
Thanks for sharing your positive feedback dear.
Did all steps multiple times. All ended with apple logo loading and then unresponsive grey screen. Please help.
Hey dear, you need to wait for a couple of minutes on the gray screen after that It will be live. Watch the video tutorial and make sure you didn’t miss any step: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ig7ENAUY470
The links download a virtual disk file for VMWare, not Oracle Virtual Box.
It works for both VirtualBox and VMware.
did all steps two times, same result. a black screen with no code . running win 10 enterprise, amd a10 , 16gb ram
Something is going wrong, I’m pretty sure.
Again watch this video
Had the same problem. Try to change “Type” to “Mac OS X 64 bit”, worked for my Kaby Lake processor.
Thanks for sharing your Feedback dear Mark.

Same Problem solved it like Mark thanks for this Hint
