MacOS unable to share screen
- 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.
Did all this setting till problem is not resolve? Please guide
- Hi, I have the same problem, and I found the solution:
1. Go to System Preferences > Click Security & Privacy > Privacy tab.
2. If there is a Team Application, try to delete it first by select the "Teams Application list" and klik the minus " - " sign in the left corner of the selection box
3. When finished, click the plus " + " sign in the left corner of the selection box, browse the Application > select the Microsoft Team (work or school).app and click OPEN
4. Now retry the share screen on Teams, it should work.

I use Mac OS Catalina 10.15.7, and Microsoft 365, for work. It's very unconvenient.
Despite unocked icon, there is no checkbox in front of Microsoft Teams and no + sign under to add an application. - Sam_Van_BogaertCopper Contributor
- RyanN580Copper ContributorI have two options: share the entire screen, or share the Teams window. So, no option to share other windows.
As a workaround, if I exit full screen, Teams can share other non-fullscreen windows.- Sam_Van_BogaertCopper Contributor
RyanN580 workaround is fine! Thank you.
- chrand1335Copper ContributorI have the same issue as BMarkley: I follow all the steps, the lock is unclicked, but no apps appear in the window to check. When I use the + to add Teams from my applications, it asks to "Open then Restart" Teams, but then never adds it to the box in System Preferences. I am not able to add any applications there.
- philipjc_devCopper ContributorThis is the same for me. I select the padlock etc, and enter the password. Then click the + icon, find MS Teams, select 'open' or double click and then nope it does not appear in the list.

All settings are okay on my daughters Macbook 2020, but when I click share button in teams, only a blank square appears and no choice is available. Can you help?
