Trying to use my iPad mini 4th as a second screen with my early 2015 macBook Pro. Just upgraded to Big Sur and I see the Sidecar icon, but don't have the preferences in System. Error message below
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.1
Sidecar requires a 5th generation or newer iPad Mini.

Looks like it's not compatible even thought Big Sur is compatible with the computer. How dumb. Apple should fix this.
I'm fairly certain Apple can't change a 4th generation iPad into a 5th generation or later iPad. It's an iPad hardware issue.
Sidecar preferences missing
