Copied running OSX Mavericks 110.9.4 virtual machine from Apple iMac to A;pple MacBook Air, as advised by https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=55003. Started on the MBA the vm, went away, came back; the verbose virtual console has last text "hfs: mounted Mac-HD on device root_device". After approx. 5 minutes, powered of the vm.

Please could you stop compressing your log files? It's additional work to uncompress them.
Regarding the forum article: This is a suggestion from the forum moderators. It might work but there is no guarantee that it works. The official method to move a VM from one computer to another is to re-install VBox on the other computer and export+import the VM as I already mentioned in the other ticket.
Now regarding your actual problem: As your VM sees to at least come up on the new computer I would like to see a screenshot from the actual problem. The VBox.log (Air_VBox.log) file does not show any problem.

Replying to frank:

How do I upload the Video Capture (.webm) file ?

macOS guest support has much improved in 6.1 and no activity for over 5 years, closing.
