If so, we'll need to isolate the issue further to ensure the right steps are taken from here to reach a resolution. If you haven't already, create a test admin user account on your Mac and log in to that user to see if Sidecar works as expected. You can find the steps for creating a test admin user account listed below.

1. Click the Apple logo towards the top-left, followed by System Preferences
2. Click Users & Groups.
3. Click the padlock icon, then enter the current admin user account login information.
4. Once unlocked, click the (+) and follow the prompts to create a new admin user.
5. After the test user is created, click the Apple logo towards the top-left.
6. Then click Log Out [current user].
7. Sign in to the test user, and see if Sidecar works as expected.

Let us know the results!
