To resolve this issue:
1. Check if VMware USB arbitration services are running on the Mac.
To Check the above, Launch Activity Monitor (Make sure "All Processes" option is selected from Activity Monitor view > All Processes)
Search for the process "vmware-usb arbitrator", if the process is running, then please follow the article "Unable to connect a USB device to a virtual machine (2118442)"
If the "vmware-usb arbitrator" is not running follow to the next step.
2 . Make sure Fusion application is running, go to the Host Mac > System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General > You will notice an error similar to the following:
“System software from vendor “VMware, Inc.” was blocked from loading.” with option to click on “Allow”.
From there, click on "Allow."
NOTE: You need will need admin privileges to allow the application.
找了好久，安装了最新的vmware，参照上述官方论坛的说法，也就是没有给权限的原因
