apple screensharing didn‘t work after Catalina update

Hi community,

after updating a remote computer from Mojave to Catalina Apples screen sharing - located in iMessage - didn‘t work anymore.

If I try a connection from my MacBook Pro (with Sierra) to the remote computer running with Catalina he get the call, but when he accepted the call, nothing happened till an error message appears on mine.

Any solutions?

Hey there, since87!


Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities. I understand from your post that you are having trouble screen sharing with another Mac computer via Messages. I'm happy to help!


What I would recommend is that both computers go through the steps and information outlined in the Apple Support article Share screens using Messages on Mac - Apple Support to make sure they're set up properly. Then, use the "If you can’t share a screen" if issues continue.


Best.
