[RESOLVED] Apple ID login in macOS guest OS

[JonC8]

I've been unable to login with an Apple ID in the Big Sur guest that is offered at Parallels install time. The error is the same for my normal Apple ID and one newly created from within the guest OS.

Logging into iCloud from System Preferences generates a 'Verification error'. All generic stuff and seems to happen a lot with Apple devices.

When I log into appleid.apple.com I can see that VirtualMac is a connected device, but I'm not logged into the OS.

It feels like an Appel problem but wondering if the VM is causing something to fail?

macOS 15 beta 1 release notes say:

• Users will not be able to sign-in to iCloud and related applications. (128924562)

The issue is supposed to be fixed in one of the next macOS 15 updates.

I'm really excited and I'm really looking forward for this. This will enable so many possibilities.
My current use case would be installing encrypted IPAs which are bound to an Apple ID, an according to my understanding, I shouldn't have any problems doing so provided I could sign into my Apple ID.

Question: Does this limit you to sign into the same Apple ID as the host, or could you log into any (new) account?
The whole split secure enclosure thing confuses me.

iCloud login was fixed in MacOS 15 beta 2. When is Parallels going to implement the features into Parallels Desktop?

Hello!
Sign-in to Apple ID in macOS virtual machine on Apple silicon Macs works in macOS 15 beta3 and newer virtual machines running on Mac computers with macOS 15 beta 3 and newer operating system.

I am running 15.0 beta 5 - 24A5309e both on my MacStudio and my Parallels VM.

I cannot sign into Apple on the virtual machine. I still get Verification failed / Unknown Error.

Me too. 24B5024e on host and in guest. How do we know if the new bit, using the Secure Enclave is working?

Login to Apple Account in the System Settings app still isn't working. Running build 15.0 (24A335) on both host and guest. Only gives the same old "Verification failed" message.

I successfully downloaded macOS via the Parallels Control Centre, let it install, logged on as a local user first, then successfully signed into my Apple iCloud account. For me it works as intended

I forgot to mention! Host machine is macOS Sequoia 15.0, as is the VM, and Parallels is version 20.0.1 (55659).

Using 20.0.1 under Sequoia, I was able to use my Apple ID when creating a new Sequoia virtual machine, but I still get "unknown error" when trying to update account settings in the guest system.
