Therefore, we need to have the relevant CD image (i.e. Since, it is to be installed on a Virtual Machine. can only be enabled after installing Guest Additions in our Virtual Machine. Features like shared clipboard & folders, better video performance, mouse pointer integration etc. As the name suggest, VirtualBox Guest Additions helps us get additional functionality in our Virtual Machines. I can only use mouse in the window, when I want to use it in my host OS I need to hit the host key again.In this article, we would discuss how to install VirtualBox Guest Additions in Ubuntu 22.04. I clicked capture in the box that appears. Like stated in message 1 (in the above question) I pressed host key. After that I acted as if mouse integration was not available in my machine. On the left above menu under the section Machine (on Mac) I clicked the button that says Disable Mouse Integration (Host key + I, Host key is left command key for me). Solution Edit: I found one way to use mouse in the Virtual Box guest OS window. If the mouse is currently captured, it will be automatically uncaptured. This means that you do not need to capture the mouse pointer to be able to use it in your guest OS - all mouse actions you perform when the mouse pointer is over the Virtual Machine's display are directly sent to the guest OS. The virtual machine reports that the guest OS supports mouse pointer integration.The currently assigned host key is shown on the status bar at the bottom of the Virtual Machine window. You can press the host key at any time to uncapture the keyboard and mouse (if it is captured) and return them to normal operation. This will cause the Virtual Machine to automatically capture the keyboard every time the VM window is activated and make it unavailable to other applications running on your host machine: when the keyboard is captured, all keystrokes (including system ones like Alt-Tab) will be directed to the VM.
I checked other questions on similar problems, but couldn't find a suitable solution.
When I start Ubuntu, I cannot make my mouse work in the window that it operates it disappears in the window most of the time. I installed Ubuntu 14.04.2 (64 bits) to my Mac OS X 10.9.5 (64 bits) using Virtual Box version 4.3.24.
