I have a bizarre think happening and I can't figure it out.

I recently purchased 3 Yealink RoomCast appliances licensed for and running Zoom Rooms. The plan is to use these as both digital signage machines and airplay receivers so that our teachers can mirror their screens. We have six total Zoom Rooms (Logitech Taps/Windows NUC) that work more or less as expected. I've also purchased a handful of Azulle Ally windows appliances with Zoom Rooms to do the same thing. They perform their functions, but are a bit tricky to manage. 

The weird problem I'm running into is that the Yealink Devices work as expected from 8:00am EST until about 12:00pm EST. My teachers can airplay to them and all is well. By 1:00pm EST, however, all three of the Yealink devices disappear from being seen by any of our Macs or iPads or iPhones. The device is still turned on. It is still visible and controllable via the control panel at zoom.us in my account portal. I can reset it or reboot it...but it stops being visible for Airplay Screensharing for at least 30-45 minutes. As I type this, they just came back into visibility. This happens daily. All of the system settings in Zoom are identical to my Azulle and Logitech appliances, but only these new Yealinks are dropping from visibility. Has anyone seen similar behaviors on their Zoom Platforms? Does anyone have a handy solution? Thanks!

I'm on Zoom Version 6.3.11 (50104) on MacBook Air MacOS 15.3.2 (24D81)

I have been teaching online since lockdown and I use Classic whiteboard for notes.  I often switch to share a webpage or a pdf then come back to the whiteboard and continue the notes.  This works fine.  I share the notes with the student after the lesson.

Today, following the update, every time I switch back to Classic whiteboard all the notes are gone and I've got a blank whiteboard.  This is exceedingly disruptive as we normally carry on with the same calculations through the lesson and now all the work we've done is gone every time we come back after looking at a different screen, for example, the pdf of the problem we're working on.

I explain to the students that every once in a while Zoom releases an update that ruins everything, and it's happened again.

Please can someone direct me to the setting that makes the Classic whiteboard remain intact if you stop sharing it, share a different screen, then come back to it?

Thanks!

I'm using a private Zoom Marketplace app I created to send webhooks for when a meeting starts, ends, and when the recording is available in the cloud. In this last event, I'm using my own Python code so that, upon receiving this event, the meeting recording is downloaded. I'm currently downloading the recording transcript manually (by going to the "Cloud Recordings" tab on the Zoom page), but I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically download the transcript when I receive the notification that the recording is available in the cloud.

Hi - I use recurring meetings/ Meet Any Time all the time in my practice, and they are suddenly gone from Zoom Workplace. They disappeared for a while last summer when Zoom updated, but they were restored shortly thereafter and I haven't had a problem since - until now. What happened, and will they be back? It's very inconvenient to have to go to the web version to find those links multiple times a day. Thanks for any help you can give.

My company (a nonprofit) has been using Zoom for our video conferencing and phones. Per the "Plan Management" page in our account portal, we are set to renew our plan on April 24th, 2024. We were planning to decrease our licenses (16 Workplace Business + 20 Workplace Business Plus), which I was partially able to do in March in our account portal on the "Plan Management" page, decreasing our Workplace Business licenses to 1 (we couldn't go to 0). I also requested an opportunity to discuss our phone licenses with an account manager.

We were contacted by a Zoom Renewals Manager along with our Account Manager to discuss renewal plans. I met with the Renewals Manager and expressed that we were interested in decreasing our number of licenses and phone lines. Afterwards, he sent me a quote which was significantly higher than the current rate displayed in our Zoom billing portal, despite the fact that we were actually decreasing our licenses. I responded that we were a nonprofit and wanted to make sure we were getting discounted rates in the quote. He asked to set up another meeting.

In the meantime, I met with our Account Manager, who, to his credit, seemed to understand our needs just fine and even sent a message to the Renewals team outlining them, including the request for a discounted rate.  I then met with the Renewals Manager again. He appeared confused as to which licenses we wanted and which we didn't, despite the fact that this was now well documented in multiple places. Once that was worked out, he showed me a price breakdown that included a nonprofit discount (though still more expensive than our current plan for fewer licenses) and told me he would send me the quote. Afterwards, he sent me a quote without any of the discounts he had shows me. I sent an email to both the Renewals Manager and our Account Manager asking for clarification and reiterating our need for a nonprofit rate. That email has yet to receive a response.

At this point, I have no confidence that our needs have been addressed, let alone heard and understood. The communication between teams at Zoom and to our company has been abysmal. If Zoom is unable to meet our needs, I need to know ASAP so I can start looking for alternative tools for video conferencing and/or phone systems. My biggest question is: What will happen if I do nothing and wait until April 24th? Will the amount displayed in our Zoom portal be charged? Will we retain the licenses displayed there for the next year? 

I would love an opportunity to discuss with someone who has the authority and knowledge to help us out. Thanks very much!

Hi! I wanted to know if there is a way to turn off the Call Monitoring disclaimer for inbound calls. I want to keep them for outbound calls. We currently mention call monitoring and recording on the custom greeting we have so we would like to remove the disclaimer on the inbound calls.

I could not find this setting and if not it should be included as a fix in future updates. 

I am a basic user, Version: 6.4.3 (52139), Mac Pro. I am trying to turn off the blue screen background, which I presume is a virtual background. I'm not even sure how I got one. Changing virtual background to None does nothing. Trying to follow instructions to change the background have gotten me nowhere. I tried following the instruction "As an admin (logged in), navigate to zoom.us/account/setting, then Meeting -> In Meeting (Advanced)You'll find the following options for your entire org's account, including 'Require user s to always use virtual background'. Disable this and unlock the virtual background setting if this is locked." I am not "authorized" although I am the sole owner of the account.  How can I become the admin of my own account?

After signing in, following other the other instructions I found doesn't work because my interface doesn't seem to match the instructions:

To enable or disable Virtual background for all users in the account:

1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal as an admin with permission to edit account settings.
2. In the navigation menu, click Account Management then Account Settings.  [NO ACCOUNT SETTINGS UNDER ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT ergo no meeting tab or In Meeting (Advanced) links. I have screen shots if necessary.]
3. Click the Meeting tab.
4. Under In Meeting (Advanced), click the Virtual background toggle to enable or disable it.
5. If a verification dialog appears, click Enable or Disable to verify the change.

Hi, this post is more for curiosity. I'm wondering if I am in a tiny minority of people who have a large number of "No Fixed Time" meetings. This is because we have many clients with whom we "hop on a call" on short notice, at varying times. This use case seems to be a real second-class citizen, in that,

a. You can't create such meetings from the desktop app

b. The whole page is wasted space for me - see screenshot. I have to scroll down, click the tiny "Recurring meetings" link, and then scroll down through my many meetings to find one (alpha-sorted of that list was restored in - thanks!). Most of the screen is used with the beach umbrella and "no meetings scheduled, enjoy your day". (I don't have any meetings SCHEDULED, but unfortunately in my situation, that isn't automatically a beach day... sigh.)

If this is indeed a low priority use case, that's fine, but I have one small suggestion: at the top of this page can there be a simple one-line quick search box? That way I can quickly "zoom in" (ha) on my desired meeting. I believe that feature would equally benefit those have *scheduled* recurring meetings. Thanks!

While I am able to see closed captions in some meetings, I am unable to turn them on in other meetings. I have gone to Accessibility in Settings, but  CC simply would not appear at the bottom of the screen. They did not turn on when the other member present initiated the call, nor when I initiated the call. I did get as far as seeing the sample of a caption, and I turned on "enable." I hope someone can guide me to a solution.
