In this article, I’m going to show you how to install macOS High Sierra on VMware on Windows 10. In WWDC17, Apple has announced their new products and some cool features. MacOS High Sierra 10.13 is one of the announcements at WWDC 2017.

Please and we'll pull it back in. Horizon for mac. This might not be a solution exactly but it's an idea. It does seem that some people have had success cloning Mojave installs to HFS+ volumes. Potentially, you could do a V2P migration, upgrade, clone to HFS+ and then P2V. Depending on the set up of the VMs you might be able to get away with running up a base install of Mojave cloned to HFS+ and imported as a VM and then use migration assistant to move data/apps from the existing Sierra VMs. I have a vague memory of needing to do something like this about 10 years ago.

It might also be possible to do pass through of a USB mass storage device direct to a VM and use that to 'speed up' the process. I'm way late to this party, but finally found a way to make it go for me. I made a bootable.iso of the 10.14 installer. I made an.ISO of a Mojave install by installing and then cloned the install to a HFS+ file system, then making a.iso of that.On ESXi I made a 64 bit OSX custom machine. Booted from the the installer.iso and used the installer iso disk utility to restore the pre-installed Mojave.iso to the VMWare disk and it worked! The 10.14 installer aggressively turns everything into APFS which VMWare can't natively boot from yet and you would have to use a secondary boot loader like clover to boot.

For customers who are running Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) or newer in a Virtual Machine, you may have noticed that you can no longer set a custom display resolution beyond the default 1024x768 in either VMware Fusion and vSphere, regardless of the amount of video memory that has been allocated. The reason for this behavior is that Apple has changed the way in which it remembers previously used modes and would automatically fall back to this versus retaining the custom mode using the Display Preferences.

Given this is a non-trivial fix, VMware Engineering has been working hard on a providing a workaround which would still allow users to set a custom resolution from within the GuestOS. The workaround that has been developed is a tiny standalone command-line utility called vmware-resolutionSet which runs within the Mac OS X Guest and allows you to configure a custom display resolution. You will need to ensure you have VMware Tools installed and running before you can use this utility. As of right now, customers can get a hold of this utility by filing an SR with VMware Support and referencing PR 1385761. Although this tool has not been officially released and must go through the standard release process, the plan is to include it in a future update of VMware Tools and will available for use with both VMware Fusion and vSphere.

Word for mac keeps crashing endnote error. UPDATE (12/11/15)- Thanks to reader @elvisizer, it looks like the latest VMware Fusion 8.1 release now includes an updated version of VMware Tools (10.0.5) which includes the vmware-resolutionSet utility. You can find it under '/Library/Application Support/VMware Tools'. One thing to note is that there is a right now for VMware Fusion 8.1 related to NAT and port forwarding, you may want to hold off on upgrading if you rely on this feature.

The syntax for the vmware-resolutionSet utility is pretty straight forward, it accepts a width and height argument. Make sure to use 'sudo' if you want the display resolution to persist through a system reboot. For example, to set a 1920x1080 resolution, you would run the following command:./vmware-resolutionSet 1920 1080 Note: Ensure you have sufficient video memory configured for your VM for larger display resolutions. In the example above, I have 16MB configured for my Mac OS X VM which would give you a max resolution of 2560x1600. If everything was successful, you should see that both the 'Requested resolution' and the 'Effective resolution' match in the output.
