I updated to MacOS Catalina and now I cannot share my app screens. I can share my desktop, but that is all others can see.

Found it.

System Preferences

Security & Privacy

Privacy

Screen Recording

My system had an entry (unchecked) for Microsoft teams. I think it asked me as I was launching but I blew by it. Not sure how you'd add it if it's not there. You just have to turn it on, and Teams screen sharing will work.

    Dear Betty,

    I have been trying to share my screen from my mAc in MS Teams but when I hit the share button, it only pops up the desktop screen sharing and any other browser which I might want to share doesn't show up. Although, I have changed the permission settings, it still doesn't show options for already opened tabs to be shared.

    How do I resolve this?

    Kindly advise!

    Thanks.
