Disconnect the device that you are using from your host machine. Start your VirtualBox Guest machine. Wait for the machine to boot up completely.
You may have to install the VirtualBox USB drivers, right click on the USB icon or select from the dropdown device list, this should start the process.

VirtualBox allows simple USB device connection, a feature most other VM programs do not offer, though this feature has been found to have a low transfer rate. Take a virtual image of the current state of your system with a 'snapshot'. Snapshots can be created and deleted while the VM is up, making this feature an excellent alternative for system backup or disaster recovery.
This is helpful when backing up a VM, testing different guest OS levels, and to play around with different VM configurations. VM groups can be sorted and organized, making toggling back and forth and finding your desired VM quick and easy.

VirtualBox goes head to head with the industry giant VMware in this comparison. Both products are free, however VMware Player is only free for non-commercial clients. Portability is another win for VirtualBox with its ability to spin up multiple VMs in one environment but run them in another environment. As with my freeware offerings, VirtualBox can be buggy and sporadically slow.
VMware states that their Player program has the same level of reliability and stability as their higher product offerings, making it a clear winner here. All in all, any industry professional would agree both of these are excellent, free options for someone new to virtualization or with low maintenance VM needs.
