Mouse cursor not jumping between Macbook Air and iPad Air

The settings are correct, they are both signed into the same Apple ID and are on the same WiFi network. I feel like the issue is with my iPad. It's a real pain when I'm working as I basically use my iPad as a second screen, so I don't want to mirror my Mac to my iPad, I just want to use my mouse for both my Macbook and my iPad. It has only been an issue recently.

Universal Control randomly disconnects or pointer disappears I love the idea of Universal Control, but it's not stable for me. M1 Pro Macbook Pro running latest OS of (non-beta) Ventura and M2 iPad Pro 11" running latest (non-beta) iOS. Disconnect happens when both devices are sitting next to each other (maybe 1 ft apart). Happens in the middle of tying on iPad. Sometimes, the mouse pointer is gone altogether (even on the Mac) and the only way to get it back is to lock the iPad screen. I should also add, the Macbook is most often closed and connected to Apple Studio Display. Anyone else have this issue?

I can't Connect my mouse to my MacBook Air I can't Connect my mouse (not an apple mouse) to my MacBook Air. I also tried connecting it to other MacBook, and it doesn't work. I Don't think it's a Problem with the mouse because the LEDS are on. Two Days ago, it was working, and yesterday when I tried using it, it didn't worked. ( I'm having also problems with WhatsApp and widgets). [Edited by Moderator]
