I have been unable to use Apple Sidecare with Photoshop - I have all the correct specs and everything is updated. I am able to use sidecar with all other Adobe programs like Lightroom, Bridge, etc. except Photoshop.  Anyone else running into this issue? Is this a bug? is there a fix?

Correct answer Kevin Stohlmeyer

Hi @rachelleaphoto the workaround is:

  1. Quit Photoshop
  2. Disconnect sidecar
  3. Connect sidecar again
  4. Relaunch Photoshop

    It doesn't work for me. I can move Lightroom to my iPad Pro without any problems, but the option is greyed out in Photoshop (25.9.1). Very frustrating!

    @lagedor222 did you ever figure this out?  I'm having same issue, PS 25.11 + iOS (iPad Pro) 17.6.1 does not allow sidecar connection.  All other apps, including LR allow me to connect ("send to ipad").  What gives?
