If I log out or restart my Mac, I need to re-authenicate to use iPhone mirroring. It is as if I reset iPhone access and need to set up mirroring access.....like I am using it for the first time. Is this normal? Anyone else having this issue?
Got a tip for us?

there are settings in the iPhone Mirroring app that offer options like "Ask Every Time" and "Authenticate Automatically". What do your settings currently show?

I have it set on Authenticate Automatically, but it keeps reverting back to Ask Every Time.According to this article:

Update: I just tried it after having the Mac closed for a couple of hours, and the mirroring worked fine without asking me to authenticate again......so, maybe I screwed up before....don't know.
