Question

I can't share my screen on Teams meetings. Why?

Anonymous

Teams prompts me to allow screen sharing in my privacy settings, so I do. But even after that it won't allow me to share. It just prompts me to change the settings again. Any idea why this is happening? I'm using a Mac. Thanks

Hi Dominic, My name is Umar and I'd be happy to help you out with your question.

Please note: This is a user-to-user community forum. We are users just like you who help others. We are not employees of Microsoft.

If you're experiencing issues with screen sharing in Microsoft Teams on your Mac, there are a few steps you can try to resolve the problem:

Adjust Screen Recording Permissions:

Open System Preferences, go to Security & Privacy, and select the Screen Recording tab. If Microsoft Teams is not listed, try unchecking the "new meeting experience" in Teams settings, restart Teams, and then attempt to share your screen again.
