Can't share screen on Teams
Hi, I have just downloaded the Teams App and am unable to share my Powerpoint on the Share Screen option. Do you have any suggestions?
EFWalker This worked for me - it was a privacy setting on my MacBook Air - this should resolve it for you too! https://windowsreport.com/teams-screen-sharing-not-working-mac/
EFWalker I work for GE and use teams everyday. I have had the issue of not being able to share content because of the spinning circle several times. Usually when it happens it will happen all day and rebooting or reloading will not help.
If you haven't try Gabriella365's fix... it just worked for me.
Click the Apple menu.
Then, go to System Preferences > Click Security & Privacy > Privacy tab.
Click Screen Recording.
Click the lock icon to make changes.
If required, enter your admin password.
Finally, click the checkbox next to Microsoft Teams.
A notification window will ask you to restart it. Agree.
Then, try again and see if the issue persists.

Thank you so much! I was able to resolve the issue so easily following your instructions, considering the fact i consider myself as technologically challenged.christie2280
