Freely available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris x86 platforms under GPLv3: Platform. With the MacOS Dropbox location known, I could reinstall MacOS Dropbox and be happy again. Oracle VM VirtualBox Base Packages - 7.0.8. I understand from your response that Dropbox in Windows 11 VM is not supported. If there is a stable folder location visible to the Windows VM, I would not need Dropbox on Windows VM. I can’t reach them with my Windows programs now. If you have an Apple Silicon Mac, dont even think about using VirtualBox, because it wont run at all on an M1-based Mac, not even with Apples Rosetta 2 translation layer that makes many Intel. provisioning host-accessible virtual networks for you), it wasn’t designed to run a whole OS under one container, and it’s more ‘fiddly’ than using VirtualBox as a provider. It conceals the location of files stored in the MacOS side. It’s not as versatile as VirtualBox (e.g. 64-bit VMs work just fine on typical x86 non-ARM Intel & AMD PCs and Intel Macs. My quick Google-fu seems to say that the M1 is an ARM-based CPU, so no-go on Vitualbox keep that old Mac running, or get a refurbished x86 when your war chest builds up again. The trouble began a few days ago when I upgraded to the most recent MacOS Dropbox. Virtualbox will not work on an ARM host computer. (BTW, I do not use, cannot use, Windows in S mode.)įor example, in Windows 11 on the new Macbook M1, I could see the MacOS Dropbox folders as something like Z:\dropbox\family\.
In fact, they worked fine when I installed Dropbox on the MacOS side of my new Macbook M1 a month ago. all worked perfectly in this dual environment (MacOS and Windows 10). Net) for backup, organization, photos, etc. I have used it on a virtual machine on my Macbook pro for 8 years.
MAC M1 VIRTUAL BOX INSTALL
If you havent given your Mac permission to install programs from Oracle previously, its highly likely the installation will fail at this stage. With VirtualBox 7.0, users can finally create and run virtual machines on a Mac equipped with an Apple Silicon chip, which includes the M1 and M2 chips. Yes, I am a newbie on the Forum, but I have used Dropbox for over a decade. If you want to change where and how the VirtualBox application installs, click 'Change Install Location.' When everything is the way you want it, click 'Install.' If asked, type the password for your Mac. Thanks for responding (and so fast!)-very encouraging to this newbie.
