My Macbook Air won't connect to my iPad through screen sharing, when I click on the screen mirroring tab I get sent to display preferences. I'm using the same iCloud account on both and sharing the same wifi. I also have all my screen mirroring/sharing settings turned on for both devices. I'm not exactly sure on what to do.

iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi
