- Vmware workstation tools mountain lion mac OS x. Ask Question Asked 7 years, 1 month ago. Active 6 years ago. Viewed 39k times 18. I installed Mountain Lion and then I tried to run and then got this error: The virtual machine cannot enter Unity mode because: - The guest operating system does not have VMware Tools installed.
- Browse the Mac OS X Lion.vmx. It comes with a safe official Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10-8-5 offline. Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan Free Download; Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9 Free. Mountain lion iso. Try it for free today. My VMware; Partner. Mac OS X 10.12.5 or later. Do I need to download VMware Fusion again if I am converting my trial license.
All right, your almost there in setting up VMware. Now you need to load up VMware from your Programs List, Click File and then select Open. When it shows a dialog box to select the vmware file, just navigate to the folder “OS X Mountain Lion” and select “OS X Mountain Lion” in it.
Download OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion VMware Image and Run It on Windows 8 Mountain Lion is the world’s most advanced desktop operating system. In March 2012 Apple was released Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion Developer Preview 2. In this new developer preview we see some bug fixes, stability improvements a shift in focus to bringing iOS 5 apps to OS X.
Now you need to click “Edit virtual machine settings” and you could see another dialog box with settings.
Here you can increase the RAM to 2 GB or more, increase the processors to 2 or 4
Another important thing here is to select “CD/DVD (IDE)” and select the setting “Use ISO image file”, after that click Browse and navigate to “VMware 8.x SeriesTools” and select “darwin.iso” (Please download the file by clicking the link).
Why are we loading this? Well basically if you run Mac OS X Mountain Lion for the first time, you would see it in 1024 x 768 resolution and for those who has monitors or laptop’s having screen resolution more than that like 1600 x 1200 which is mine, you need to run this tool. I will explain how to run it at the next step.
Now, If you want to access some files from Windows, then select the “Option” tab, click “Shared Folders”, select Always Enabled option on the right and click Add. Now just go click Next on the dialog box and select “Browse” option and select a folder you would like to share. (For example, Music folder)
All right, now that’s all for the settings and now select Ok and Power up select “Power on this virtual machine”. Please note that it would take up to 5 minutes for the first boot and later on it would take up to 1 minute! So don’t worry about the delay as that’s a usual delay!
Now go through the setup in which you can see on the screen, Connect to iTunes if you want, and that’s it for the installation and you can see the desktop with maximum 1024 x 768 resolution. Now you will see VMware Tools drive in the desktop of Mac, open it and you could see a folder and inside that folder, There is a file named “Install VMware Tools” and I want you to double click that file and run the installation. While you open that installer, you will see a box which says “This package will run a program to determine if the software can be installed. To keep your computer secure, you should only run programs or install software from a trusted source. If you’re not sure about this software’s source, click Cancel to stop the program and installation.” Please ignore that message & click Continue because this software is perfectly fine to run and it just gives you the ability to run your Mac on the full resolution that your computer can support. After that it will ask whether to reboot, so go ahead click reboot and wait for the Mac to load up. Again, for some users, it would say “The installation failed.” well, don’t worry about that, you just need to reboot the virtual machine manually (Click Apple logo on the top to select Restart options). After it Mac loads back, select the full screen option in vmware and you can get your native display resolution!

Now you can see the beautiful desktop in full screen with your native resolution of your computer and yes almost all the functions available on the Mac OS X Mountain Lion is available (Depends upon your hardware and VMware limitations).

Windows users can take the fluid of Macbook direct from his Windows based Pc or laptop. Using Vmware Mac Installation a windows user can avail all the mac features including cd/dvd rom access, usb drive access, network and internet sharing etc. In my previous tutorial I have mentioned how to configured internet connection on a virtual Mac OS X Mountain Lion. One can easily use internet dongle using vmware NAT setting. Now people use to google a simple question i.e. “How to share files, folders with Host and Virtual OS”. In general we could not find any physical common hard drive section of the Windows host while we use Mac Os X with a Vmware based virtual Machine. But enabling ‘Shared folder’ option one can easily access a common folder from both Windows and Mac Os x. Apart from folder, you can share a whole drive and use it as a shared drive option using Vmware.
Set Up ‘Shared Folder’ for a Virtual Machine : Quick Tip
Run Mac Os On Vmware
At first open Virtual Machine (Vmware) and start Mac Os X. Now from the Vmware top menu section select VM and navigate to Settings. Click ‘Settings..’. It opens up a new window that is “Virtual Machine Setting” window. Now open Options tab. Select ‘Shared Folder’ and under Folder Sharing Option (at the right pane) choose ‘Always Enabled‘. Now click add button and browse the folder or drive that you want to choose as a shared location and give it a name ( this name will be visible as a shared folder name for your virtual drive ) and save it. You can add more than one folder as a shared folder. Note: If you want a folder to be shared for one time then choose “Enable Until Next Power off or suspend” option rather than using ‘Always Enabled’. This second method ensures more security for your host computer. Now open Mac OS X home screen and press Apple Logo and select restart option to restart your virtual machine. After restarting press Shift+Windows+Shift button together to open Computer list and from there select “Vmware Shared Folders” to find the shared folder or drive. This video tutorial will make you understand the whole procedure in a detail fashion.
This works truely great for me. It is the most trusted method to share files and folders with Windows Host and Vmware Mac OS X. What do you think?Mac Os 10.12 Vmware Image
