Unauthorized: Allow in headset after installation Sidequest VR to my quest 3

Oak.ay 8 months ago | 1 comment

Hello all, I was able to connect my Quest 3 to my MacBook Pro and downloaded the Sidequest VR to my Quest 3, and it works fine. However, I'm trying to connect my Quest 3 to the computer to sideload APKs, but it says, "Unauthorized: Allow in a headset." There is a message inside the quest to authorize it, but when I do, nothing happens.

Any tips?

If you don't see the USB debugging prompt pop up, check the following:

USB cable, use as many as you can find or buy a new one preferably.
Different ports on your PC.
Restart the headset and PC.
Toggle debug mode off and back on again in the Meta Quest app.
Removed secondary account on the headset.
Use a different device. Any Android phone, Chromebook or PC will do using our web installer here https://sdq.st/download

I hope this helps.
