Sidecar not working | 2015 MacBook Pro (Sequioa) & iPad Pro 4 (iOS18.3) This feature used to work on Sonoma, but not used it since upgrading to Sequoia... until now. These two devices don't even recognise each other, including the message "iPad is not supported". I've been through the troubleshooting process; WiFi connection, bluetooth connection, distance between devices. etc. I've also tried a wired connection. I"ve also tried sidecar with my iPhone Pro12, which also used to work, and having the same problem. Devices: 13" 2015 MacBook Pro i7 iPad Pro 4 12.9 iPhone Pro 12 I've exhausted everything I know and hoping some out there has the answer. Thanks Kenny

sidecar issues I have been having a lot of issues with sidecar. The option just doesn't show up for me at all even though both of my devices should be compatible with this feature. I have followed tutorial after tutorial trying to fix this problem and just nothing works

Apple Sidecar is unusable I recently bought a Mac and an IPad pro in the hopes to replicate my prior PC dual screen setup. The sidecar function is so hard to get going that it's impractical at this point. Both the devices keep losing connection and it's frustrating to say the least. Very often they never connect to begin with. "Device Timed Out".
