Why does my sidecar disconnect repeatedly when I connect my iPad Pro (OS15.3.1) to MacBook Pro (13in, M1, 2020; Monterey 12.1) ?

1. Sometimes ipad freezes & disconnects 2. other times it just disconnects abruptly

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.1

Redefine iPad setting. Use Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset all settings.

You don't loose data but you have to reconnect to your wi-fi (same Network for the Mac) .

It works for me


I have MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) and an iPad Air 3rd generation.
