I have created a new virtual device on Genymotion but I can not get it to run. When I click on the "Start" button on the Genymotion GUI nothing happens.

enter image description here

I was able to run the virtual device from Virtual Box. The virtual device is apparently well configured, with internet working and all.

enter image description here

My current environment:

  • OS X 10.10.1
  • Genymotion 2.3.1
  • Virtual Box 4.3.20 r96996

It is worth mentioning that I recently formatted the computer and installed everything (even Yosemite) from scratch, so I could me missing a dependency or something.

Any help or tip on how to fix it or get logs to know what the real problem is will be appreciated.

Thanks

    Have similar situation, including recent reinstall. Genymotion logs show just `Jan 5 21:14:23 [Genymotion] [Debug] Starting player at "/Applications/Genymotion.app/Contents/MacOS"`, then nothing else. Have had success manually starting the device with the [instructions here](https://www.genymotion.com/#!/support?chapter=start-virtual-devices-command-prompt#faq). Note: instructions are obsolete - `genyshell` is currently in `Genymotion Shell.app`. – user3452758 Jan 05 '15 at 21:23
  • @user3452758 have you been able to solve this problem? I am still experiencing this, even after a fresh install of Genymotion. – david.schreiber Mar 18 '15 at 08:26
  • @david.schreiber Sorry, no. Just set up an alias as a workaround. – user3452758 May 08 '15 at 15:13
  • @robert-estivill did you fix this? – Hades Aug 20 '15 at 01:27
  • No, had to format the computer for other reasons and after reinstalling it started working just fine. Weird – Robert Estivill Aug 24 '15 at 00:27

I meet the same problem, but I find a way to start vm

go to /Applications/Genymotion.app/Contents/MacOS

and type the following command (change to your vm name):

./player -n "Google Nexus 4 - 4.2.2 - API 17 - 768x1280"

  • You can also try to look. for `/Applications/Genymotion.app/Contents/MacOS/player.app/Contents/MacOS` – Necronet Jan 18 '19 at 19:16

I am using Genymotion for MAC, I was facing the same issue on my machine. I have done the following steps to solve this issue, hope this might help you as well:

  1. Remove Genymotion and Virtual box
  2. Reinstall Genymotion and Virtual box
  3. Restart your machine.
  4. Now start your genymotion and it should work fine.
