Beeping iPad connects to iTunes in VMWare's Windows 10 but not in macOS

"""tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Location &amp; Privacy. This will also reset your location and privacy settings. You can also untrust all computers by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on the ipad/iphone"""

I guess the last part is what fixed my problem as on macOS the question came up if I wanted to trust this computer. After that it worked again. I hope this helps other people looking for a similar problem.
