Meetings

Why can’t the start time be included in the human-readable part of the invitation email?I understand it’s in the ICS attachment but sometimes I don’t want to add it to my calendar. I just want to know when to call. Not to mention sometimes in forwarding the attachment is dropped. It doesn’t seem like too much programming effort to start the email with: XX is inviting you to a meeting on <date> at <time>instead of the current XX is inviting you to a meeting (if you want to know when, open the attachment, if you can find it). 

On Linux when other meeting members try to make annotations on my shared screen, what they draw does not line up with where they are drawing. They can be drawing a rectangle around something in the middle of the screen, and when they stop, i.e. when it shows up on the screen for everyone, it is offset to the bottom right of the screen, wayyyyy off from where they actually drew. Wayland is the future of Linux in terms of compositors, can you please update the Zoom meeting client to properly use Wayland libraries when it is installed, rather than just X.   Thanks.

Hey everyone, does anyone know a good way to fix random disconnections during meetings? My Zoom keeps dropping and it’s super annoying  

   In meetings, most of the other participants' photos are displayed. Mine shows an image that I may have chosen in the past (I don't remember), but it definitely is not a photo of me. or anyone else.   How can I set it to display either:      a. My face that is being picked up real-time by my webcam.      b. A photo of my choosing. (I'd just use a selfie).Thanks for you help,SweetTasha 

Hi There,  I really need some help on this. I added a colleague as an alternative host on ONE meeting, but it seems he is now the default alt host on EVERY meeting I create and he receives an email notification.  Is there a way to remove him permanently as an alt-host? I have tried removing him from all past meetings, and that does not seem to work.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have large zoom meetings - using a piano and recordings, so need Original Sound ON -- just last week participants are saying they are hearing an echo, I am not hearing an echo….

Hello! I can't find anywhere How to create a recurring conference without a fixed time? There used to be such an opportunity. With updates, it disappeared, or something has changed and I don't see it. Currently, the repetition field only has: daily/weekly/monthly. Please help me fix it. I use Mac OS.

I need to see the participants when delivering a power point training but the only way I can find to do is to show the gallery overlaid over the PP, which blocks some of the image

I updated to the newest version, and now my background is slightly blurry. Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, did you figure out how to make it clear again?Thanks!

Today, all of a sudden, I could not login to my Zoom app! but I can login using browser on the same desktop! Help. I have a basic plan so no access to support. 

Getting a pop-up that does not go away when joining a Zoom meeting using Microsoft Teams Room on Android (direct guest join). This is not a touch screen. Is there any way to get this off the screen? Thanks,  

I have had a couple of suspicious registrants sign up for my Meetings lately.  The one today was from the domain @schoolmail.website.  A quick Google search advised that I not allow this registrant out of the waiting room and into the meeting.  Is there any zoom spambot security I can use to stop these from registering for my meetings?

I’m trying to stream a Zoom meeting from one PC using another PC with OBS Studio.The video input signal is excellent, and the recording made directly in OBS is Full HD. However, when I send the video from OBS through Zoom, the participants receive a very low-resolution image.Interestingly, if I stream directly from my PC (without going through OBS), the video quality looks much better.Could anyone explain why this might be happening?Is there any difference in video resolution depending on the Zoom plan?Thanks in advance.

so i take online classes and we use zoom. after the windows update and zoom update my webcam no longer works every time i join the meeting a pop up says virtual background not done loading and options to use video or not to use video either way my video stays black and my light next to my webcam flashes once every 10-15 seconds. i have uninstalled and reinstalled, i have installed legacy versions, i have checked all permissions made sure zoom has permissions to use it i just can't seem to figure this one out.

Hello,I keep getting kicked out of meetings every few minutes. I use the desktop version of Zoom and have automated updates turned on in the app. Every few minutes Zoom asks me to leave the meeting or cancel and if I don't click on the exit button within seconds I get kicked out instantly. This happened to me many times already while it's working for anybody else in the meeting.Can anybody help me?Regards 

Hi all,I sit facing a window, but not in direct sunshine.My face appears ridiculously white, and I can’t find any option in Zoom to turn the brightness down a bit. The reason this looks like a Zoom issue is that I also use Teams, and with the exact same background image (or indeed no background image) my face isn’t as white or washed out. It’s still bright but much better in Teams with the same cam. The only setting that looks vaguely related is Adjust for low light. This doesn’t help, unsurprisingly, I need the opposite. In the Windows camera app it is also better than Zoom.Any ideas (other than putting the blinds down)? W10 ProClient 6.6.11Licensed (paid) version

Hi all, wondering if someone might be able to help me?...The annotation and Whiteboard tools are not working properly whenever I try to use them over the last few months (It's odd because they did work in the past). I can select different tools and I try to create, draw or write with them, but nothing appears on the screen when I'm using them. I've tried changing the colours, &using different tools to see if just one works, but nothing does. I even bought a paid Zoom package thinking that this would make a difference (I use Zoom for tutoring so the annotation and whiteboard tools are essential for the lessons I give) but to my dismay I discovered during a lesson that it still didn't work.Please help! Thanks in advance. Martha xx

Every time I open my Zoom Desktop App, I have to change the Calendar settings.  Why won’t they save? See my experience:1: https://screenrec.com/share/KJPmqEQkY32: https://screenrec.com/share/2dyHepJxSY

Hi I’m unable to connect to ZOOM meetings and have done all the AI trouble shooting.  It states connecting but can’t join meetings

I have international meetings with language interpretation. When one participant is presenting, we will have multiple screen sharing by the host (myself), the speaker and one more volunteer participant. This is so that we can show the speaker’s slides in their native language as well as show the slides translated into 2 other languages (so that other participants can view the slides /screens in their preferred language, while listening to the interpretation). The problem: I have not been able to figure out how to have the correct screen recorded so that the screen with the correct language slides match the speaker’s language. Sometimes the speaker is French and showing their slides in French, but the English slides (screen-shared by a different participant) get recorded. Sometimes the speaker is English but the Spanish slides from someone else’s shared screen get recorded. How can I ensure that the correct screen gets recorded, so that the slides matc

I recorded a Zoom class and saved it to my laptop.  We use Windows.  The sound is not working in the recording.  The audio was not muted during the recording.  I have realized that the sound works in recordings that are stored in Zoom cloud storage.  Is there anything I can do to fix this issue?

Zoom forced an update on me today. Since then it fails to recognise my video camera and asks me to pick a different one from settings. Neither camera nor settings have changed since the update. It works perfectly fine in Zoom and Skype. The camera is a Logitech HD Pro Webcam C920. Any suggestions on how to get Zoom to do its job again?

I've been using Zoom for many years to teach my classes. I've never had a problem like this. Yesterday, during a class, I shared (tried to share) a video that was over 90 minutes long in Full HD, with a file larger than 10GB, using the option to share a locally stored video file.After about 70 minutes, the video playback froze. I stopped sharing and restarted it, but the screen remained black; the video wouldn't "load." I ended up using the video directly on YouTube, losing contact with the students.I used a 14-inch MacBook Pro (2021) with an M1 Pro chip, 16GB of memory, and macOS Tahoe.I have new classes via Zoom and will have to use this material again.Does Zoom support this type of sharing or not? What's the best way to present this video in the next class? What should I do?

Hey everyone! I’m curious when hosting large Zoom meetings or webinars, what strategies do you use to keep participants engaged? Do you rely on polls, breakout rooms, Q&A, or something else? Would love to hear what’s worked best for you.
