We all know VMWare start to supporting Mac OS X as VM on latest ESXi hypervisor releases. According to Apple licensing policies, VMware only supports the virtualization of Apple Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) client or server, Apple Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) client or server, Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) client or server, Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) client or server, Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) client or server, 10.6 (Snow Leopard) server and 10.5 (Leopard) server.

Aug 08, 2017  This works to create a custom keyboard shortcut in macOS and Mac OS X, the technique is compatible and behaves the same in basically every version of Mac OS system software dating back well over a decade. Here is how this excellent feature works.

The End User License Agreement (EULA) for Apple Mac OS X legally and explicitly binds the installation and running of the operating system to Apple-labeled computers only. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Server, 10.6 Snow Leopard Server, 10.7 Lion client or server, 10.8 Mountain Lion client or server and 10.9 Mavericks client or server are fully supported on VMware Fusion while running on supported Apple hardware.

In this HOWTO, provided the steps to create an Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks as a VM in ESXi 6.0 Host for a test case scenario. Before deployment, you must read EULA for Apple Mac OS X license, given link at the end of this HOWTO.

8 Steps total

Step 1: Steps to do

1. VMware ESXi 6.0 doesn’t support OS X out of the box. So, the first thing you need to do is to customise the hypervisor layer by executing an Unlocker script by insanelymac.com. You will need to register on the site in order to download the Unlocker tool.

2.You need to enable SSH server service on your ESXi host. In order to do that, login to the host using VMware vSphere Client and navigate to Configuration->Security Profile. From here click on Properties in the upper right corner where it says Services. The dialog Services Properties should appear and from here you can click on SSH->Options and choose Start and Stop with host. Click Start and then close all the open dialogs.

3.Transfer the Unlocker-files to the host using any SFTP client. Make sure you extract the files somewhere on your client before transfer and connect to the ESXi host using the user root. Once connected navigate to /vmfs/volumes/datastore/, replacing datastore with your actual datastore name. Create a new folder (mkdir) called tools and transfer your unlockerXXX directory.

4.Now cd into the uploaded directory and ensure the ESXi scripts have execute permissions by running chmod +x esxi-install.sh. Now run ./esxi-install.sh in order to install the Unlocker.

5. Reboot ESXi host.

Step 2: Download and create the bootable OS X Sierra ISO

Grab the Sierra installer app from the Apple App Store. Note, you need a Genuine Mac machine in order to download and convert the Sierra installation disk. Once downloaded, minimize or close the installer.

Open the terminal and run the below command one after another.

# Mount the installer image

hdiutil attach /Applications/Install macOS Sierra.app/Contents/SharedSupport/InstallESD.dmg -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint /Volumes/install_app

# Create the Sierra Blank ISO Image of 7316mb with a Single Partition – Apple Partition Map

hdiutil create -o /tmp/Sierra.cdr -size 7316m -layout SPUD -fs HFS+J

# Mount the Sierra Blank ISO Image

hdiutil attach /tmp/Sierra.cdr.dmg -noverify -nobrowse -mountpoint /Volumes/install_build

# Restore the Base System into the Sierra Blank ISO Image

asr restore -source /Volumes/install_app/BaseSystem.dmg -target /Volumes/install_build -noprompt -noverify -erase

# Remove Package link and replace with actual files

rm /Volumes/OS X Base System/System/Installation/Packages cp -rp /Volumes/install_app/Packages /Volumes/OS X Base System/System/Installation/

# Copy Sierra installer dependencies

cp -rp /Volumes/install_app/BaseSystem.chunklist /Volumes/OS X Base System/BaseSystem.chunklist cp -rp /Volumes/install_app/BaseSystem.dmg /Volumes/OS X Base System/BaseSystem.dmg

# Unmount the installer image

hdiutil detach /Volumes/install_app

# Unmount the Sierra ISO Image

hdiutil detach /Volumes/OS X Base System/

# Convert the Sierra ISO Image to ISO/CD master (Optional)

hdiutil convert /tmp/ElCapitan.cdr.dmg -format UDTO -o /tmp/ElCapitan.iso

# Detach the volumes

hdiutil detach /Volumes/install_app
hdiutil detach /Volumes/OS X Base System/
hdiutil convert /tmp/Sierra.cdr.dmg -format UDTO -o /tmp/Sierra.iso

# Rename the Sierra ISO Image and move it to the desktop

mv /tmp/Sierra.iso.cdr ~/Desktop/Sierra.iso

Note : Once done it should have created a file called Sierra.iso on your desktop.

Step 3: Create a virtual Mac OS X VM

The next step should be fairly simple if you have used ESXi before. As usual open your datastore and transfer the iso to wherever you normally store your installation files.

1. Create a New VM
2.Select Typical and you should be able to select Other and then Apple Mac OS X 10.10 (64-bit). Complete the wizard, mount the ISO and install Mac OS X as usual.

Step 4: Mac OS X Installation steps - Language selection

Choose desired language once you see the welcome screen

Step 5: Mac OS X Installation step - Formatting the hard drive.

Also note that you must format the hard drive using the disk utility before it will be visible in the install wizard.

Step 6: Mac OS X Installation step - Choose Virtual disk and erase the partition

Choose Virtual disk and erase the partition

Step 7: Mac OS X Installation step - Choose Virtual disk and erase the partition 2

Give a name and click “Erase”.

Click “Continue” button on the next consecutive screen, choose the Virtual HDD which is created and proceed the installation with on-screen instructions

Step 8: Configure Mac OS X after install

It’s very important to install the VMware Tools as soon as possible after the install has finished. Without it Mac OS X might not awake from sleep and in general be very unreliable.

Very Important : I also recommend to turn off sleep and the screensaver in settings as these may cause issues.

Finally, reboot and start enjoying your virtual Mac on non-Apple hardware.

You may also wish to read the software license agreement for Mac OS Sierra provided in the References section.

As said, using Apple Mac OS X as a VM on vmware environment is subject to apple EULA. VMWare recommend to use VMWare fusion for installing Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks.

    Tried this - didn't work for me. Never made it to install screen. Did I miss anything that says this is for Apple hardware only? There's a ton of these guides out there that are generally the same - to my knowledge those that include the unlocker step are for non-Apple platforms.

    Yes, We tried with Yosemite and Sierra macOS only, since it was the latest that time. We have not tried with Mojave yet, and not sure process has changed.

    Since updating to Mac OS Catalina my original Photoshop no longer works, (32bit installer) not wanting to purchase a monthly subscription I went this way and got Photoshop Elements. It is a dumbed down version of Photoshop.Had trouble installing and registering, the product an called Adobe. Older Elements versions were released prior to the Catalina OS release, which was released in October 2019. Adobe recommends that customers using older versions of Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements (versions 2019 or earlier) DO NOT upgrade to macOS 10.15 Catalina. Free photoshop elements for mac.

Hi everyone,


When I used the beta of mac OS 10.12.X, I had some problem with my built-in keyboard after every update, but after doing this, it will work fine:


1) Turn off mac

2) Now turn on in recovery mode (⌘+R keys when turning on).

3) On the top of the screen, click on 'Utilities tab' and choose Terminal.

4) Write 'csrutil disable' in terminal and press enter

5) Reboot my mac

Dwg for mac os x Plus, there’s a 3D perspective tool which lets you snap different objects to the grid.Remember, this software is designed to work like a charm on older hardware, and it does. Nonetheless, there are still more than enough brushes, color and layer options, and settings to create cool-looking vectors. In terms of tools and features, FireAlpaca doesn’t offer as much as some other entries on this list.

6) Go to System/Library/HIDPlugins/ and replace 'IOHIDKeyboardFilter.plugin' with this one: IOHIDKeyboardFilter.plugin.zip

7) Enter in recovery mode again and in terminal write 'csrutil enable' and press enter.

Now that I have mac OS 10.13 I can't solve this problem with the guide above!

I can't adjust brightness of the screen or keyboard, I can't change the volume from the keyboard.. so I can't do nothing with the fn keys (from F1 to F12).


Another thing: If I try to change 'modifier keys', it won't change anything, the keys do not work as I choose, they work by default .


Even if I logout from my account, the fn keys don't work.


This problem is on my macbook pro retina 15inch mid 2014.


I have another macbook pro retina 15inch 2016 with touch-bar and it has no problem at all.


Can please someone help? I don't know how to fix this. I tried to migrate my account from my 2016 macbook to the 2014, but it won't fix..


I know it's not a hardware issue because when I use the 'keyboard character viewer', every F key (from F1 to F12, and the fn key) is showing when I press it.


Maybe if I do a clean mac OS 10.13 installation in this mac (2014) and then migrate again from my 2016 macbook, it will work?


Please help..
