I confirm this bug has not already been reported

I have searched the issues and this bug has not been reported previously

Describe the bug
I needed macos for some testing, I installed it using quickget macos sonoma. it downloaded a recovery image. previously it used to download recovery image for sonoma, but this time it installed the sequoia recovery image. I installed it.. everything works. Now when I tried to sign in into the apple store (to download xcode), it showed an error message "an unknown error occured". I thought what if the Apple ID was blocked, or the password was wrong but that wasn't the case as I was able to sign into account.apple.com wihtout any issues.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

quickemu --vm macos-sonoma.conf
try to sign into the apple store using an Apple ID.

#!/usr/local/bin/quickemu --vm
guest_os="macos"
disk_img="macos-sonoma/disk.qcow2"
img="macos-sonoma/RecoveryImage.img"
disk_size="256G"
ram="24G"
cpu_cores="24"
macos_release="sonoma"

Expected behaviour
I would be able to log in using my Apple ID.

similar behavior here, it downloaded sequoia and unable to login to an apple account.
I did rename the ethernet to en0 per the docs.

I am getting same issue. Tried logging in via App Store, iTunes and from system settings. I did complete the en0 recommendation. Ventura works fine.

Same issue.

Only Sonoma has this problem, even after that I follow the indications

Ventura and previous are ok to login for Apple ID

Same issue. Wanted to download Sonoma but it downloaded sequoia instead. Installation worked but unable to login into the Apple account.

EDITED, typos corrected, some things clarified and expanded.

AFAIK, this is a generic issue with QEMU Macos guests, and relates to using a "default" or common ethernet MAC address, Mac serial number and UUID.

I struggled with this for over a year starting with OSX-KVM.

I FINALLY got this sorted within the last few days in a Ventura VM, and later Sonora by doing the following:

When creating the VM and installing, DO NOT login with or create an AppleID during installation.
Go to https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Post-Install/universal/iservices.html#using-macserial . Read from the top of the page. I have NOT had luck with GenSMBIOS, others have, YMMV.
CAREFULLY follow the instructions for macserial to generate the required values, which replace those in config.plist in the OC folder of the EFI partition. Figure the values out while in the host os, then boot the vm, and from within, mount the EFI partition, edit the config.plist
To mount mount the EFI partition from within the VM, open a terminal and type "diskutil list". You will see TWO physical disks, and ONE synthesized disk. The first, smaller disk corresponds to the Opencore qcow2 image, the second, larger disk is the virtual mac's HD. Opencore uses the EFI folder on the FIRST disk, so mount it with the command "sudo diskutil mountDisk /dev/disk0s1" NOTE: this is how my systems is laid out, it's concievable that yours might be different, so view the output of the "diskutil list' command and adjust appropriately. If the mounted EFI partition is empty, you got the wrong one.
A video which helps with what to do and how within the VM is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbSq1Ns7qcQ . This steps you through mounting the EFI partition from within MacOS, editing the plist file, and validating the serial number.
I was careful to generate a MAC address with a proper Apple OUI, or Organization Unique Identifier. Ethernet MAC addresses are centrally managed, with the first 6 digits (the OUI) being reserved for the vendor, and the rest assigned according to the vendors whim. It's important to use a "proper" or at least plausible Apple MAC address. Google Apple OUIs, pick one, and generate the remaining bytes randomly. There are several sites which will generate the MAC for you which let you supply the OUI, just google. The MAC address MUST be the same in the "external" configuration file that QEMU uses to create the virtual hardware, and in the config.plist which Opencore uses. Check this from within the macos vm by opening a terminal, typing the ""ifconfig" command and verifying that the virtual mac's address matches.
With all of the editing done, reboot. Even if you have an existing and valid AppleID, don't use it yet. Attempt to generate a new one from the top entry in the control panel. If you proceed to the point where it asks for your birthday, you have succeeeded. Either proceed and generate a new AppleID, or cancel and log in using your existing one.

I hope this helps.......

FWIW, I have NOT been able to get this to work with Sequoia, and reading around in the hackintosh community, this is apparently a known issue that hopefully will get addressed sometime soon.

I could only get Monterey to work with the instructions from @redleg.

It's good enough for what I am currently doing.

I could not get any of the more versions working with a new Apple ID, even with a valid phone number.

I did manage to get it working with an Apple ID that's attached to my Iphone however.

This looks automatable. I'll try to get it done in a few weeks after I've handled some more pressing concerns.

First attempt of the @redleg 's procedure failed

I can't mount the EFI disk (no folders in EFI disk), so I can't access the plist file properly

I'll try to reinstall Sonoma

Re-read my original post, as I have edited it. You probably mounted the wrong EFI partition, so no need to reinstall everything if you have an otherwise working VM.

I was able to upgrade the OS from Monterey and my apple sign in stuck through the upgrade process. Everything worked except the most recent version of MacOS when it finally detected that I was in a VM and disabled things like iMessage but let me continue using the store To download stuff like Xcode. Sonoma was fine, Seqouia had like 80% functionality via the VM.
