Your welcomz:)”. I did your step by step instruction. Everything was clear. Setting is ok. CMD code run successfully without error message. But when I want to start the machine, only a black sreen appear with critical error.

I replaced the virtual machine name in the cmd code. There wasnt any problem with this. Virtualbox didnt run while I apply the cmd commands. The problem is something else.
But I found a solution for this issue. I hope this will be help for those who have the same. So the solution is: Virtualbox / virtual machine settings / general tab/ basic I change the version to Mac OSx 10.8 Mountain Lion (64bit) from El Capitan. After that, I could run the machine without problem.
I dont know what does it do in the background, but it solves this issue. The way I found: I try to install the Mountain Lion version with virtual box. And this worked without any problem. So I tried to apply that preferences to the new OSx. I think it is a same situation like, when a device work properly with windows7 drivers on a Win10 OS, while it has a win10 driver which isnt good. I hope this solution will help some people who has the same issue.

If you get the below error message and you have tried all suggestions but still getting the error, you MUST login as local administrator, with Windows 8/10 if you are logged in with your hotmail account and even if you run the command prompt as admin you will get the error message.
Create or log in with your local admin, setup the virtual box under the admin account then rund the command prompt as admin under local admin login and try again it works perfectly. I was getting the error because i was logged in using my personal account on the pc, Also watch out for the quotation mark, do not copy and paste from the website.

However, as a Linux user I had to make some changes to the VBoxManage commands: – Of course, forget about the “.exe” in the first command – Replace “Your VM Name” by ‘Your VM Name’, so double quotes replaced by single quotes if there are spaces in the name, else you can forget about the quotes at all – Remove the double quotes in the values, except the value which contains.(c). Put the whole value inside single quotes, like ‘ourhardworkbythesewordsguardedpleasedontsteal(c)AppleComputerInc’ With these minor changes this tutorial also applies to VirtualBox users running Linux.

When I connect a USB device (only checked with an iPhone) the machine froze. I tried the settings listed above in Gabriel’s last answer but that didn’t fix the issue. Eventually, I changed the USB settings of the VM from 2.0 to 1.0 and now it seems to be working.
Any idea why it freezes when the USB are set to 2.0? My host machine is a Lenovo X220 with i5 CPU and 16GB ram, running Windows. The guest (OSX) gets 6GB RAM, 1 Core and I set the graphics memory to maximum.

Thank you for posting this, I am working through it Not sure if I will have an issue with dual 6 core xeons at all?
I have just downgraded virtualbox to 5.0.26, not sure if this will be an issue or not, someone else mentioned this and I did not see a responce. When you first create a new VM in virtualbox 5 there is not option in the pull down for a 64bit OSX only 32bit sierra listed? This is before I get to the step where I load the VM image should I just select 32bit sierra for now? There does not seem to be another option.
