While most of the VMWare guest hardware is virtualized, the guest VM CPU reflects the same CPU features the physical host CPU has.This guide details the additional work that is needed to run OS X 10.8-10.12 with an AMD CPU under VMWare.If your AMD CPU supports SSE3 and SSSE3 (and SSE4.1 for OS X 10.12):The installation should be pretty simple:1. Install VMWare Workstation 8.0.6 / 9.0.4 / 10.0.4 / Player 6.0.4.2.
Prepare an installation ISO from the untouched 10.8 (Mountain Lion) DMG using.4. Create a new VM (select 'Mac OS X 10.8' as the guest operating system).5. Set your 'number of cores per processor' to 1 (the number of processors can be set to more than one).6. Trying to run macOS 10.12 (Sierra) inside VMware Workstation Player 12 (patched), on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit on a laptop with AMD PRO A10-8700B R6. However, on starting the VM, I get the warning popup, which says:'This virtual machine requires AVX2 but AVX is not present.
This virtual machine cannot be powered on.' However, CPU-Z tells me that both AVX and AVX2 are supported by the above AMD processor. How can one proceed to solve this issue?TIA,f74falcon74,Vanilla OS X / macOS does not support AMD processors, so to progress you will have to install a modified kernel that supports AMD processors.
The CPUID masking technique was tried by Donk, but could not get a consistently working OS X VM. SO I think a modified kernel is the best solution. Simple steps to create macOS Installer for Vmware on Linux or WindowsThis guide describes how you can create a Vmware image (vmdk) for installing macOS in Vmware. Most tutorials about this topic require an ISO installer file that was typically created in macOS or you have to download some preinstalled image file from unknown source.
None of them are ideal. Greetings!So I managed to get a Catalina 10.15 vm up and running in ESXi 6.7u2.When I try to install Catalina updates, however, it goes to the Apple logo, status bar moving ever so slightly, reboots again and this time hangs on the Apple logo. To fix this, I either remove or disable 'Mac OS' as an option in the bootloader. Is there a way to get these updates to install?In the meantime.I instead of restarting Catalina after choosing to update it, I shutdown the guest. After a restart it SEEMED to update with the time duration countdown.Prior to this I did run disk utility and checked Untitled and Untitled-Data for errors (I don't think it found any).So I just logged back onto the VM and the version is still 10.15 and NOT 10.15.2 as hoped. So weird.Any ideas?.
Hi,I've just upgraded to OSX Catalina from Mojave on my VMWare Workstation 15.5, running on Windows 10.The Sidecar feature is there, and after connecting my iPad Pro 12.9' 2018 running iPadOS 13.1.2 via USB cable, it is recognized as a display device in the Sidecar preferences.However, when I enable it, the Sidecar screen on the iPad is completely black / blank. I can't send anything over, and if I mouse over the green + on an app window (i.e.
Safari) to move it to the iPad, nothing happens and the screen remains blank. The sidebar will only appear after I turn it off and on again at Catalina's Sidecar preferences.
The buttons there actually work. For example, if I move Safari over to iPad, the screen is blank, but if I activate the on-screen virtual keyboard and type there, the text actually goes to the Safari's search bar (the Safari still appears on the desktop).Is this a compatibility issue with VMWare, where Catalina can't properly recognize the second screen? I've tried changing host VM settings too, i.e. To 'host setting' or 2 monitors, enable / disable 3D acceleration, nothing works.

The iPad is definitely correctly connected, as I can browse / backup its data at the Finder.Can anyone please advice on how to enable Sidecar properly in VMWare? Thank you.Below is a screenshot of how it looks like on my iPad:.
General informationWhat is SheepShaver?
SheepShaver is a MacOS run-time environment for BeOS and Linux that allows you to run classic MacOS applications inside the BeOS/Linux multitasking environment. This means that both BeOS/Linux and MacOS applications can run at the same time (usually in a window on the BeOS/Linux desktop) and data can be exchanged between them. If you are using a PowerPC-based system, applications will run at native speed (i.e. with no emulation involved). There is also a built-in PowerPC emulator for non-PowerPC systems.
SheepShaver is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). However, you still need a copy of MacOS and a PowerMac ROM image to use SheepShaver. If you're planning to run SheepShaver on a PowerMac, you probably already have these two items.
Supported systems
SheepShaver runs with varying degree of functionality on the following systems:
