Sharing iPad screen not possible

[42deluxe]

Hey guys.

I'd like to share my iPad screen via a wired connection as described in: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201379235-Sharing-your-iOS-screen-from-the-Zoom-desktop-cl...

My problem: there is no button for iPhone/iPad via cable.

Yes, my iPad is connected via cable and it is trusted.

Any ideas?

Hi 42deluxe,

In the article you linked, it says you can share via the Zoom Desktop client using a wired connection to a MAC. Is the PC your running the Zoom client on a Mac?

Hi Chris,

sure. The latest app on a Mac (M1) wired via the original USB-C - USB-C iPad cable.

And it makes no difference if I connect it before clicking on Screen share or afterwards (as described in the article).

Have you also verified that you meet all the prerequisites?

[42deluxe]

Yes. macOS 13, beta 7, iPadOS 16.1, USB-C cable (iPad Pro has no lightning 😏

One last thing to check. "If the Disable desktop screen sharing for meetings you host setting (located in your Settings) is enabled, it will prevent the ability to use either of these sharing options. "

Boom. There was the problem. Thank you very much.

I think, Zoom should add this to the FAQ. Not easy to find.
