As I already pointed out, I tried to upgrade iOS of an iPad 2 by USB. I don't listen to music by crappy lossy codecs, anyway, using an USB mouse and transmitting an app, a PDF or text file, a few pics does work, but could also require a restart of the host. Everything works fine after downgrading virtualbox. I'm not the only one and it's not the first package that is broken and btw. I don't use any DRM crap and I dislike Apple myself, I won the iPad, however, the USB issue is _not_ caused by Apple, virtualbox is broken. You should read all threads about this issue and you should read them completely instead of guessing. Regards, Ralf
