In case you are wondering though, the event log that I mentioned earlier does provide the reason for the failure.

Once again, the error message is less than helpful because it doesn’t provide any information that tells why the VM cannot be started. Here is what a network-related VM boot problem looks like: I’m not even necessarily talking about a VM that has been configured to perform a PXE boot. Therefore, a misconfigured virtual DVD drive can cause a VM boot failure, even if the VM is not attempting to boot from the virtual DVD.īelieve it or not, virtual network configuration errors can also cause a condition in which a VM is unable to start. If you look at the virtual machine’s settings, which you can see in the next screenshot, you will notice that this VM is configured to boot from a virtual hard disk. You can see what this looks like in the screenshot below.

In the case of the event logs indicating that the reason why the VM cannot start is because its virtual DVD drive is pointing to an ISO file that no longer exists. In many cases, this log will tell you the exact cause of the error. Specifically, I recommend checking out the Applications and Services \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Hyper-V-VMMS \ Admin log. When faced with a VM that is refusing to start for an unknown reason, the very first thing that I recommend doing is checking the event logs. The guest OS cannot boot until the VM reflects a state of “running.” Hence, the problem is tied to the virtual machine’s configuration, not to the guest operating system. Remember, the error message indicates that Hyper-V is unable to change the virtual machine’s state. While it is true that guest operating system corruption can cause a boot failure, error messages like the one shown above occur before Hyper-V even tries to load the guest OS. The biggest mistake that I typically see admins make as they try to resolve the problem is that of assuming that the virtual hard disk is to blame. I have encountered this and similar error messages on real-world, production systems on a few occasions. Upon doing so I received the error message shown below. This morning, for example, I tried to boot a previously healthy virtual machine that I hadn’t used in a few months. Other times, however, Hyper-V does not give you any information regarding the error’s underlying cause. If, for example, the VM is asking for more memory than what the Hyper-V host can provide, then you will receive an error message like the one shown below. When a virtual machine fails to start, the underlying cause is usually obvious. In this article, I wanted to outline a few different potential causes and solutions in case you find yourself with a Hyper-V virtual machine that won’t start. Brien’s solution saved many IT admins from days of stress, and that’s why this article is one of our 20 Best of 2020.Īlthough Hyper-V is normally very reliable, I have on occasion run into situations in which a previously functioning VM refuses to start. In this tutorial from January, Brien offers answers for a perplexing problem: What to do when a Hyper-V virtual machine won’t start. One of the problems with Hyper-V is that it is usually so reliable, so when problems arise users are at a loss. In both scenarios, I do have local administrator rights to the machine.For our readers who use Microsoft Hyper-V - and there are a lot of them - Brien Posey’s advice, knowledge, and in-depth tutorials are indispensable. Also, I would not be able to "purchase" the free app under the corporate ID as I would not know its password.

(So, for example, I'd be allowed to install Homebrew, or stuff from SourceForge, etc.) However, the machine is logged into a "corporate" Apple ID, and thus I cannot re-associate it to my ID even temporarily. The IT management says that employees are permitted to install any apps onto the machine as long as they are free.

#Os x vm not able to apple id password#
(Assume that before giving me his machine, my friend set his local system password to something generic so I would be able to know it, but has obvious good reasons to not do this with his Apple ID password.) It wouldn't be a reasonable request to me to ask my friend to provide his Apple ID password to me.

My friend is not present and thus I do not have his Apple ID password to download it under his account. I do not wish to log into my own Apple ID on my friend's Mac, for a number of reasons: having to deal with de-associating and re-associating my friend's ID with his machine, the fact that there is an apparent limit as to how many Macs can be logged into the App Store under a single account, etc.

This tool is available for free (and does not use in app purchases) from the Mac App Store, but isn't available as a direct download from the developer. To proceed with the task at hand, I need a specific tool.
