• How to do a clean reinstall of vmware fusion and windows 7 x 64? Please HELP back to HAppy

  Initially, I installed vmware fusion and windows 7 x 64 about 2 to 3 months ago. Everything was fine until quite recently when vmware or windows has become very agitated and would freeze on me after 2-3 minutes whiles work in windows 7 and the merger. Will have to restart merger every 2 to 5 minutes or more.  So as a result, I went to my local apple store (thinking that I had a problem to apple/mac) and they recommended I uninstall windows and vm fusion. then re-install fusion vmmware and windows .Although this second time I missed something because instead of installing windows taking under an hour and a half, the facility has taken from one day to the next and never finished.

  When I rebooted vmware, I get the message.

• Kernel panic reproducible when using VMWare Fusion and Cisco VPN

  I can reliable reproduce a kernel panic when I use VMWare Fusion and Cisco VPN set.

  Using either done alone causes no problem.

  I'm on a mac book pro using the latest updates from Apple for Leopard.

  My question is: How can I report this to VMWare without having to pay for support?

  When I go to the VMWare fusion support page he wants me to pay for an incident.

  I really do not want to pay them to help solve a kernel panic.  (They pay me .)

  Announcing the details here (don't forget to join the panic.log as in HOWTO: ask (and answer) Questions) will work.

• 17 GB of drive space missing after the crash of vmware fusion and force restart

  During my last installation of SuSE Linux, I had to manually reboot my system because my system crashed.

  After the reboot, I deleted the virtual machine of Susa and started again installation. To my surprise 17 GB were mission on my hard drive and I can't find the files responsible for this. I checked my system of files larger than 500 MB via ' find /-size M + 500 ", but found nothing: (.)

  Do you know where are the 17 GB or where vmware fusion may have experienced a system core dump or something like that?

  Please help, I need the 17 GB for resettlement :).

  Thank you.

  Simon

  I have discovert that was missing only 3 GB of the 20 GB that I deleted before trying to install SuSE. But I deleted all the files that I specified after the crash. The trash is always empty so I'm a bit confused were are the 17 GB.

• VMware Fusion and confidential data

  Hello!

  Apologize for my poor English.

  I would like to create an encrypted virtual machine that will be dedicated for processing confidential data on an external hard drive. Therefore, no data should be written to the internal hard drive for security reasons.

  VMware Fusion locally stores all data (temporary log file, cache,) related software that is running on the virtual machine? Or other data like pictures of the screen, the data at the network level?

  Hope my question is clear enough

  Thanks in advance for your answers

  Hi Dasaly

  No VMware Fusion writes all the data pertaining to your VM off the virtual machine folder.

  All data is located in the folder of the virtual machine, things like caching of thumbnails, swap, is by default located in the virtual machine folder.

  VMware Fusion also offers the possibility to encrypt the virtual machine under settings, other-> restrictions and encryption of the Virtual Machine.

  The only part I'm not sure without research is if drag of OSX is encrypted or not.

• VMware Fusion and Macbook Pro bi - GPU.

  Hey you guys,

  I have vmware fusion before on my white macbook. I was watching the bi - GPU 17 "Macbook Pro and

  I was wondering witch GPU would have use of VMware if I installed Windows XP on double 17 GPU "Macbook Pro.

  The GPU on board is a NVIDIA GeForce 9400 M... The dedicated is an NVIDIA GeForce 9600 M GT.

  Waiting for answer,

  Thank you

  P.S. The VMware rules

  N ° all THE graphics are emulated, and all instructions are carried out by the host CPU.  Well, technically, the graphics are drawn to the video card in the host / drivers... video and 3d graphics require certain levels of video hardware and driver support.  So if you want 3d graphics in your comments you will need a video card that can support it. but I think that NVidia card, you mention will support him.

• Selection of the method of Installation of VMWare Fusion 7

  So I take an edx online course: Introduction to computer CS50x. I am following the installation of VMware Fusion instructions found at the following link: https://manual.cs50.net/appliance/2014/fusion/

  I followed the instructions in step #4: I double click the icon of VMware Fusion. I clicked on 'Open' when prompted. I typed my administrative password. I accepted the license agreement. I inserted the license key. I am now in the window "select the installation method. But herein is the problem. I do not know what installation method to choose, and there are no instructions on it. My options are: (1) import of disk or image; (2) import existing PC; (3) install OS X from the recovery partition; (4) import a virtual machine existing; (5) installation of Boot Camp. and (6) create a custom virtual machine.  There are no instructions or advice to navigate through these options.

  Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  From what you have posted, it seems to me that the merger has been successfully installed. The dialog box "Select installation method" you see is Fusion trying to be helpful and you guide in the creation of your first virtual machine.

  At this stage of VMware Fusion and eject the mounted disk installation image (so that you do not open the installation program when you must open the copy installed on your disk). Continue to step 5 to download your virtual appliance of the format .ova.

• resize boot camp partition, formatted and installed windows 7 - now cannot open in vmware fusion

  Here are the steps that I took...

  1 has started with the copy of Windows XP in the boot camp partition. "This is accessible from VMWare Fusion."

  2 resized (from 6 GB to 18 GB) and formatted the boot camp partition.

  3 successfully installed Windows 7 directly in the resized partition boot camp (not through VMWare Fusion).

  4. starts in OSX (latest version), open VMWare Fusion and attempted to access the partition to boot camp/vm. Received an error message charging me to disassemble and reassemble the physical disk changes. However, since I did it, he cannot find a bootable disc, therfore making it the useless bootcamp VM.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Paul

  Note: These steps assume that you have a default Apple installation of Windows and a VMware Fusion Boot Camp Virtual Machine default partition and if you changed the Boot Camp partition the Virtual Machine to add additional hard disks to be virtual or RAW disk then do not use these instructions unless you backup the Boot Camp partition the Virtual Machine package first.

  1. If the merger is open, close it.

  2. in a Terminal (/ Applications/Utilities/Terminal) copy and paste command, as the following and then press Enter and it will remove the Boot Camp Virtual Machine meta-data partition. Note: This does not affect the Boot Camp partition to install Windows. Also make sure that you copy the entire command below "rm" line at the beginning of the ' (quote) after the p in the Camp. "

  RM - dfr "/Users/$ the specified item was not found./Library/Application Support/VMware Fusion/Virtual Machines / Boot Camp."

  3. start Fusion (/ Applications/VMware Fusion) and select the Boot Camp partition on the library of the Virtual Machine window, and then click the run button.

  Notes: Then, an authentication dialog box appears. "VMware Fusion requires that you type your password." Enter your name and password, and then click OK. (It is necessary to remove the Boot Camp for the merge partition to access it directly).

  Then, we should see a Boot Camp partition message stating "VMware Fusion prepares your Boot Camp partition to run as a virtual machine. This may take a few minutes. This occurs once. »

  When the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine starts for the first time after this VMware Tools may want or will install/update and restart the virtual partition Boot Camp Machine.

• Port sharing ethernet physycal between the Mavericks and Ubuntu using VMware Fusion

  Hi all

  I use VMware Fusion on Mac OS Mavericks 6.0.2, and I need to connect a physical device to manage using a Ubuntu 12.04 VM. In addition, the host computer is connected to a public network, using a Wi - Fi connection.

  I put the ip of the physical device by USB configuration, but I was unable to get by using ethernet or the guest or the host computer. I tried to configure the NIC of the NAT guest, as well as the bridge too. Nothing seems to work. I don't know if the virtual machine is able to handle the physical Ethernet port.

  Ideas for the configuration of the network device (NAT, bridget, etc.) or the ip configuration?

  Thank you very much in advance.

  Sorry, I left an important step.  You must also configure the host's Ethernet card to use a manual IP address in the same subnet assigned to the Virtual Machine and the sensor.

  1. connect sensor card via USB and set the IP address and subnet mask, disconnect USB.

  2. connect the sensor to the host (Mac) Port Ethernet card.

  3. in the Apple menu > Preferences system... > network > Ethernet > configure IPv4: manually, then set the IP address: and the subnet mask: properly.

  4. from the Virtual Machine settings > network adapter > Bridged Networking > Ethernet

  5. in the guest OS virtual machine to set manually the appropriate IP address and subnet mask.

  Example:

  The IP address of the host on the Ethernet adapter: 192.168.3.1 subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

  Guest OS Ethernet adapter IP address: 192.168.3.2, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

  Sensor onboard IP address of the Ethernet card: 192.168.3.3, subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

  In this example, the sensor Council will be addressable by the host or the guest to 192.168.3.3.

  BTW I just tested it using my Thunderbolt Display Ethernet with a normal cable (straight not crossed) RJ45 connected directly to a device addressable IP, VMware Fusion and a virtual Windows machine.  Although the same works with an Ubuntu VM as I have in the past also.

  This should work without any problem but make sure that the firewall or other security software on the host and guest are not blocking communications!

• A product key from an old computer can be used for vmware fusion on a new mac?

  We used to own a Dell computer with windows XP Professional OS. Lately, we have switched all of our Mac computers and no longer use the old windows computer. I have the product key for this OS and I was hoping to use the CD of windows XP on VMware fusion and relocation (in order to play video games). So far, the installation was almost a success until it would not accept the old operating system product key. Is there a way to get a new product key?
  PS The only purpose is for the PC games we have.

  can I get another free product key? I still have the old computer

  you need to know if the old pc had an O E M version of windows, because

  windows OEM versions are locked to the motherboard of the PC they where first installed at.

  If the product key you have is from a version marketed Windows (non oem) you can install the version on another pc if you take away the first pc.

  in other words, a version on a pc at the same time.

  You should check with the microsoft Web site dealing with pirated software and product keys.

• PC VMware fusion migration agent: can I migrate to an external drive

  I'm evaluating merger 7 and try to migrate existing PC. Is there a way I can create a vmware file which I can move in a HARD drive rather than perform the migration on the network?

  Thank you

  Ravi

  ravi123201110141 wrote: he talks about the installation and use of "Vmware fusion migration Agent" to perform the migration. Is this different from "VMWare VCenter converter"

  While the two results in a P2V and share some code/software between then, however, they are different products.  The Agent of Migration of VMware Fusion is a limited subset of what VMware vCenter Converter Standalone is able to do.  You said in your OP ""is there a way I can create a vmware file that I can move in a HARD drive rather than perform the migration on the network?". VMware vCenter Converter Standalone is the way to go if that's what you want to do.  Personally I would never, under any circumstances use the Agent of Migration of VMware Fusion and instead use other disk imaging software then manually create a Virtual Machine VMware vCenter Converter Standalone is the way to go otherwise.

• Windows 7 on VMware Fusion

  I scoured some trail and error to install Windows 7 on my Virtual Machine. But after giving him a well-founded logical thought that I have accomplished the task. Most frequent concerns resulting was with SCSI controller problems. AFET overcome only by downloading files from the website of VMware and install in the folder C: / drive on my virtual Arena I could select it driver in the Windows 7 Installations pane and continue with the installation of the operating system.

  However, I also had to ensure that the VMware Tools was up-to-date inorder to some hardware problems correct. However, there is always this problem with my computer internet setting virtual driver.

  First of all you need not download any drivers SCSI from VMware to install Windows 7, if you do it right.

  If by chance it was a Machine virtual Windows XP you upgraded to Windows 7 well you should not have wasted your time because Windows XP is not directly upgraded to Windows 7 and since it is a Virtual Machine, all you have to do is just to cross the new VM Wizard by selecting the version of Windows using your and if you use upgrade media then use the information contained in "[clean install Windows 7 with upgrade Media | ]. "[http://www.winsupersite.com/Win7/clean_install_upgrade_media.asp]" to the install/activate.  I use 2 method successfully.

  If it's an upgrade, you can then delete the virtual Windows XP Machine after you have saved your user data and you have Windows 7 running.  CTR-click simply the target virtual machine on the Machine's virtual library and select Delete.

  If you want to transfer files and settings, then take a look on:

  Windows Easy Transfer for transferring from Windows XP (32 bit) to Windows 7

  Or

  Windows Easy Transfer for transferring from Windows XP (64 bit) to Windows 7

  =========

  In any case as ' However there is always this problem with fixing my VM internet pilot. "if it was an XP upgrade then this would explain and you need to change the Type of operating system to Windows 7 or Windows 7 x 64 and it can make the Virtual Machine library.  You also remove the network card under the parameters of the Virtual Machine, and then add again.  Note that you must do this with stop the Virtual Machine, not suspended.

  Otherwise, take a look at the collection of information for VMware Fusion and archive and attach a copy of the configuration as well as the vmware.log file .vmx file.

• Can I run a machine virtual de VMware Fusion, VMware Server 2?

  I looked at a bunch of documentation confusing but couldn't find a clear overview of what VMware Server 2 does in fact.

  I hope that I can take the virtual machines that I've created with VMware Fusion and download them on VMware Server 2 on a server somewhere and run it from there.

  Is this possible?   Is there any clear, simple documentation that indicates how to proceed?

  Thanks for any information you can give me!

  Hello

  If you run the virtual machine in fusion directly in vmware server, these are the steps to follow:

  (1) find out where are the fusion virtual machine files.

  (2) stop & remove merge (do not remove fisically hd!) virtual machine.

  (3) copy files of the virtual machine of fusion to the vmware server host (with the .vmx file and the hard should be enough) in the directory you designate as data store for vm vmware server files in the installation of vmware server.

  (4) use the "adding a virtual machine to inventory" to navigate to the file .vmx of the virtual machine that you copied before

  (5) the machine running and try. (if a question arises, you say that you copied the VM).

  Maybe you should do some additional steps as reconfigure it the virtual machine under vmware virtual network install, but there are minor and easy changes.

  Here is some information about the files that make up a virtual computer: http://www.vmware.com/support/ws55/doc/ws_learning_files_in_a_vm.html

• Cannot run VMWare Fusion on Mac 10.9.4 6.4

  I use Fusion for some time on my Mac (Mavericks 10.9.4). Recently, when I went to launch Fusion 6.4, I received this message:

  Cannot run VMWare Fusion

  VMware Fusion is damaged and cannot be repaired. Please move the VMWare Fusion application to the trash and reinstall VMWare Fusion

  So, I removed the merger application and downloaded again. When I installed it, I got the same message. Well, I thought that this must be one of these 'hidden' files, see you must be corrupt, so I used App Zapper to get rid of the merger and all files related; emptied the Recycle Bin, so merger was gone, gone, gone. Uploaded a new image, the same thing!  No matter what I do, I can't use Fusion. Suggestions?

  Do not use Zapper App - merger, running specific uninstall scripts.

  I've seen that occur when get-Gatekeeper confused about how something has been installed, when permissions are confused, or when a hard drive is running out.  If you have VMWare Fusion and have installed and it run under an administrator account (default in OS x unless you change it), then first use disk utility to first 'check disk' (if you want something better, look for smart voltains software utility), then repair permissions.  If this does not work, try to right click on the merger in the applications folder, and choose open.
