Meetings

Seriously, I don't expect this post to be here long, but not having the option to keep any type of real-time support unless I spend $50/month is a knock-on small business. I am a sole proprietor and only need 1 Zoom account, most of my meetings are either one-to-one or small groups I have no idea how to or want to spend $50 a month to even access the chat support option. when I looked into the business option the minimum account size was 10 accounts or 1999.00 a year. Last time I checked, small individuals made your success possible, yet now we are no longer relevant. Shame on this decision zoom, shame...

There are 2 types of Webinar Zoom type, first participant allowed / can turn on/off the audio or camera icon below. In this type the audio volume in smartphone can easily turn up and down.The second type, participants are passive,  can not turn on/off audio and camera ( no icon below usually have hand wave icon ). In this type the volume is always maximum can not turn up and down except I cross the audio icon at the left top. I always use smartphone Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro. I wonder this  bugs is on the smartphone or zoom apps ?

I run training sessions using Zoom meetings.I used to ask trainees to send direct messages to answer some questions to test their knowledge and I would see all their answers as part of the main chat thread.Recently direct messages now all pop out into separate conversations, meaning I need to click on each one separately to see answers. I've therefore had to ask trainees not to use direct messages as with 10 trainees it means I can no longer just quickly glance to see whether everyone has the correct answer without them being able to copy answers from others.Is it possible to toggle this option on and off so I can choose whether to have a single thread with all messages in the chat or separate threads for each conversation?

I am part of a weekly zoom conference where the host is sharing audio. The audio is sometimes too quiet for some of us, while too loud for others. Is there a way to adjust the volume being shared to a specific user, either from the host or by the user themselves?  For example, could every member of the conference have audio being shared to them, and one member have the shared audio muted, turned down significantly, or turned up significantly, just for themselves? Specifically looking for advice geared towards MacBooks. 

Good evening, I forgot to record a super important meeting.. is there a way to retrieve this meeting?tks

Dear All, The new Zoom plugin for Elgato Streamdeck is released as Version 1.0.xxxxx If you are using the old Zoom Plugin, not by Zoom. You can expect problems because the two plugins then try to be called Zoom. Please uninstall the old Zoom plugin before you install the new Zoom Plugin. It is still an amaxing Application John Drinkwater 

Hello,We want to use Show Captions in a meeting, but when we select Spanish it continues to show English. However, when I click on other languages from Russian to French the translation is working.

6.6.0.33360Galaxy S23+ SM-S916UOneUI 8Android version 16 When I join a meeting, I am able to use "Original Sound for Musicians" but if I use it with a bluetooth device (Logitech Zone Wireless 2) then I sound like a chipmunk to everyone in the meeting. If I turn off bluetooth or Original Sound, then I sound fine. One of my colleagues who also uses an Android has the same issue.

Problem StatementWe're experiencing media desynchronization when conducting Zoom meetings through a Windows 365 Cloud PC environment accessed from Mac endpoints. The primary symptom is audio-video timing misalignment during video conferences, suggesting potential issues with media processing pipeline optimization.Technical ConfigurationClient Hardware: Mac Mini (macOS Sonoma 14.5/14.6 & 15)Virtual Environment: Windows 365 Cloud PC with Zoom VDI clientZoom Architecture:Zoom VDI Client (Windows 365 cloud PC)Zoom VDI Plugin for Mac (local endpoint)Network Infrastructure: Consistent high-bandwidth connection verifiedSoftware Versions: Latest software releases of both VDI componentsSymptom AnalysisPrimary Is

Can anyone help with how to change your default download folder for recorded Zoom sessions? The info online is either old or wrong; they've led to dead ends. Thanks in advance.

I have my kids' Chromebooks set up to only allow approved sites. When they try to join a zoom meeting, they are getting a reCAPTCHA error. ("You failed the reCAPTCHA verification") If I change the setting to allow all sites, they can join. I've tried on two different devices with 2 different google accounts. Is there a site I can allow that will enable reCAPTCHA validation without removing the filtering I have set up on google Family Link?  This was not an issue last spring; we just encountered it at the beginning of this school year. 

I have been using Zoom professionally for about half a decade now and I love it.I am a professional technical consultant and show control programmer for theatre, dance, art installations, and remote performance.The software I use is called Isadora and two very important keyboard shortcuts are Cmd+3 and Cmd+4. Without them, I can only work at one tenth the speed I normally do. I use Zoom to meet remotely with clients, I have them screenshare, then I request remote control so I can work on their Isadora files in-situ (with their hardware, media, the real production computer, etc).  My problem is that sometimes I can use the keyboard shortcuts in Isadora sometimes, but occasionally, (and I cannot for the life of me figure out why), Zoom starts stealing the keyboard focus and eating the critical keyboard shortcuts Cmd+3 and Cmd+4, leaving me completely unable to work remotely. Instead, Cmd+3 does nothing an

I recently attended a Zoom call hosted by someone else. I joined as a guest, and didn't have my own Zoom account at the time/wasn't logged in.   I requested permission to record the call, which the host granted, and the recording icon was present throughout the call.   After the call ended, the host does not recall seeing the video converting message, and cannot find the recording locally/in the cloud. Likewise, I cannot find the recording locally, and as I say, wasn't logged in/didn't even have an account at that time.What has become of the recording, and how can we access it?Many thanks in advance!

I use the latest Debian version (5.7.6) of the Zoom client on Ubuntu 20.04. At seemingly random times (but about once or twice every day), the Zoom application starts by itself without any intervention on my part. This happens while the application was previously shut down (i.e. not just minimized). This has been happening ever since I used Zoom on Linux, in all versions of the client, three different computers and at least two versions of Ubuntu (18.04 and 20.04).   I tried searching whether some cron job or something else would cause Zoom to start, but did not find anything. The last time Zoom started by itself, I used htop to see what its parent process was (see attached screenshot), but did not get very far (parent process is /sbin/init).   My two questions are:   Could you explain what is starting Zoom? Could you tell me how to stop it from doing this? Best, Sylvain

I have two Zoom accounts I log into and switch between.  One is work, the other is personal - they have different avatar images so I can tell them apart.  If someone from my company and I are logging into the same meeting that someone ELSE sent the link for, I have to log in through my personal account so that my colleague and I are using different accounts to enter the meeting to avoid connectivity issues.  I used to be able to simply "switch accounts" to the one I needed to use without needing to fully log out and then back in.  Now, regardless of which account I appear to have switched to via the computer app, when I initiate the Zoom, I enter the meeting under my work account.  Interestingly, if I'm in the waiting room, my avatar shows me as entering via my personal account, but once I'm actually IN the meeting, I'm in as my work account.  All other functions switch appropriately when I switch accounts without actually logging out.  It's j

Where do I find the Video Effects button so I can turn it off!!!

I'm techno challenged and very basic.  I teach quilting and occasionally do zoom classes.  Previously, I used my laptop with document camera for one area, but then I had to join from my iPhone camera which was positioned over my sewing machine in another part of the room.  It worked fine.  Recently, I was doing a class, and when I went to sign in from the iPhone camera, I was knocked out of the meeting and couldn't get back in on my computer, and had to try to finish the class holding the iPhone in my hand while trying to sew.  I guess something has changed.  I did look up and follow the instructions in the settings - changing to allowing up to 3 devices, but it says of the same type.  I need a computer for my dox camera and then my phone for over the sewing machine at the same time.  I do not have a young person available to help me.Can someone please help me - in plain, old people language??  LOL. It's probably something super si

I will be sharing a Zoom link via Outlook calendar.  Several parties will join the meeting.  It is important that for one of them their email address is not visible either in the calendar invite or during the meeting.  Does this happen automatically?  As owner and scheduler of the meeting, am I the only person who can see others' email addresses?

Hi Recently when I Zoom my face appears very red like I have HBP and really bad too! But I don't and it does not appear like that in reality. Is there any way to control that? I had a paid account, but since I don't use zoom that much i discontinued that. I wish there was a solution. Your help is appreciated  

I use ZOOM on two devices: my iphone and MacBook Pro. Everything works well on both except for the audio on my macbook. I have the latest updated software ob both but i only face audio problems on the macbook. what could be the reason for it? 

I hosted a meeting last week and I remember saying to myself, "Oh I need to record this" but then I looked at the top right corner and it had the red circle and said "Recording". Of course now I can't find the recording, in the cloud recordings or locally. I checked all over my Zoom account for it - deleted files, etc. No sign of it. Is there anywhere else this could be? I asked the other presenters but they don't have it. What happened?

I have spent many hours over the past two days trying to resolve a serious issue with the Zoom Waiting Room function. Despite following every single step provided by Zoom Support (including enabling the Waiting Room at the account level, locking the setting, reinstalling the app, clearing the Zoom folder, etc.), the issue not only remains but has gotten worse. Now, even when a client joins the meeting, I no longer receive any notification via Zoom or email. I’ve tested this repeatedly using different devices, including my iPhone. No matter whether I join first or let the client join first, there is no sign that someone is waiting to be admitted. The Zoom app window doesn’t show any participants waiting, and I get no email alert. This has made it impossible for me to admit clients to meetings, and I risk losing them because of this. I’ve invested in Zoom for years to support my psychotherapy pract

I have a virtual class when classmates are signed on and enter the meeting we are all displayed in a grid formation.  The teacher is always top upper left, (on my screen) I am always situated next to him.  I never move down into the grid, switch rows, move further left or right etc.  other classmates seem to bounce around in their placement.  But I always occupy the position next to the teacher.  What are the dynamics going on here?  Do others see a similar placement on their screens?  Does what I see and static placement have to do with my settings?  Is the teacher controlling this?  

Is it possible to save  the meeting transcript from a zoom call ? how does one do that ?

I have encountered about 2 black boxes appearing in my presentation during screen sharing since Jan 2022. One blackbox appeared near the top and the other at the bottom. My laptop uses Windows 10 and I have updated the latest software. I have done all the hacks recommended in the Zoom web page, including changing the NVIDIA settings, video settings and screen sharing settings. Yet, I still have the same problem with the black boxes. Please help to resolve this problem. Thank you!
