If so, perhaps you could check the error message and post that, as it is hard to guess what might be going wrong from your description.

If so, you must set up a USB filter in VirtualBox (see the user manual) describing the device and make sure that VirtualBox has read-write access to usbfs on your host. Note as well that USB is only supported in the non-OSE version of VirtualBox, i.e. the version you can download from virtualbox.org.
