Can I Get Teams on My Mac?

Are you experiencing frustration trying to start meetings on your iPad with the Microsoft Teams app? You're not alone! Many users have reported this issue, and it seems to be a long-standing problem since 2017. Despite troubleshooting efforts, some people are still unable to find the button or location where they can initiate a meeting from within the app.

If you've enabled meetings in your school's Microsoft Teams setup, you should be able to start a new meeting on your iPad. However, it appears that this feature is currently unavailable on iOS devices. The workaround is to remote into a Mac, log into Teams in Chrome, navigate to Calendar, and click 'Meet Now' to create a new meeting.

Another option is to use your iPad as a tablet and connect it to your laptop via AirPlay or another wireless display technology. This will allow you to continue sketching on the iPad screen and cast it to your laptop. You can then share your laptop screen with students, enabling them to follow along with your presentation.

Microsoft Teams provides an excellent platform for remote learning, offering features like video conferencing, file sharing, and threaded chat. With an Office 365 subscription, you can receive and make high-quality calls from your computer or mobile devices, making it easy to stay connected with colleagues and students.

For those struggling to start meetings on their iPad, the issue seems to be related to the app's inability to recognize video conferencing capabilities on iOS devices. Microsoft has not provided a formal solution to this problem, leaving users to rely on workarounds or seek alternative solutions.
