Answer 1

To change to UBUNTU (unity 3D) you have to select the session at log in time by clicking on the circle on the upper right corner of the username screen and then select UBUNTU

1. Click on the upper right corner button as you see here-

1. Then you will get the following options(Atleast UBUNTU and UBUNTU 3D will be definitly be there)

FROM THERE SELECT UBUNTU

you will enter Unity 3D

Answer 2

Ubuntu will default to 2D if your graphics card does not support 3D acceleration.

I believe you need to enable 3D acceleration in the Virtualbox settings for the VM and install the guest additions. After that if it does not default to 3D, follow Nirmik's instructions.
