Hi all.
Suddenly, universal control is no longer working between my iMac and Macbook Pro/iPad Pro. I don't know if I changed any settings, but articles I find online to enable universal control don't work. I feel like there's a setting that got changed somewhere that isn't a common thing for people to point out when relating it to this feature.
Does anyone know of anything I should do that would fix this issue? It works between all my products except for my iMac. (It is also worth mentioning that it did work initially, and I have no beta software on the iMac.)
AirPlay/screen mirroring and Universal Control cannot be used at the same time.
