How can I sign in my Apple ID on iMac Virtual Machine?

I have to use an adapter for Wifi and I have Ethernet (which is what it says is connected to but clearly isn’t) and I don’t know how to even connect my hotspot from my phone...

Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...

System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.

System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.

The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.

Sys Prefs>Network>highlight the Interface you're using>Advanced>TCP/IP>Configure IPv4: Using DHCP.

If using Wifi, instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.

System Preferences>Network>choose interface>Advanced>Proxies Tab, make sure none are set, like for HTTP & HTTPS.

System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...

-------

On the App: Use NAT for the network adapter.

Which Protocol to Use:

• DHCP is for your Mac
• NAT if for the App --that is what to select for the Network Adapter.

"I am using VirtualBox though its for personal use especially cause I need to find my iPad or iPhone often and so I can get the verification code on my iMac aka virtual machine"

-------

Contact the Developer:

Seeing this post, then contact the Developers of VirtualBox. Google their Contact Us info, or find it in the Help menu of the app.

"ohh also btw the wifi is gone again"

WiFi for the VM or the Entire Mac?:

VM WiFi:

Go into the settings and enable DHCP to get the IP Address.

"How can I sign in my Apple ID on iMac Virtual Machine?: I clicked allow it showed me a 2 step verification code, but my computer didn’t ask for one, instead it offered to reopen the app and this has left me pressed and confused, please help!!! P.S. I think it’s my wifi but I can’t fix it neither can I make it appear on the menu bar"

Signing in to iCloud on iMac VM:

Using a Windows 10 VM on VMWare Fusion, I do not have this issue. So, be certain you are allowing for DHCP and FTP to be enabled. Without it, you cannot connect to the internet.

So, did you try the steps n making a New Location?

"Actually I’m trying to get it to work but it still won’t let me sign in"

-------

2FA:

As for a Two-Factor Authentication --you will get this directly on the Virtual Machine itself. Not on the macOS.

Lukmurmurs Said:

"I’m talking about the 2FA apple forces for things like when you go on iCloud"

-------

2FA and VMs:

That's what I am referring to, as well. When logging in on your VM, that pertains as its own device.

You are welcome.
