sidecar not working on 16inch MacBook Pro 2019 core i9

-Both the Macbook and the iPad are connected to the same network

-Both had AirPlay turned on, so did they have Bluetooth.

-I opened my AirPlay and the iPad just -wasn't there its totally missing from the menu bar on the MacBook too.

-I then read the manual for sidecar and noticed that it had to be turned on in the system preferences, but when he opened them ; there just wasn't an option for it, nor it the search bar.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 10.15

Hi Sterling,


I have both the MacBook Pro 16 and an iPad Pro 3rd Gen. I’ve reset both devices so many times and made sure all requirements have met. But I came across a complain in this platform. The person had same issue as me. He said it’s an issue with the MacBook Pro 16. They don’t have better Bluetooth. It’s either It get triggered by a dongle and stops working. I just purchased both devices recently brand new so I don’t know why I’m having issues it. I don’t want to send my MacBook in for another one cuz I’ve wrapped it with skins
