Meetings

We were just zoom-bombed by someone who posted a string of offensive sayings in the chat. They were all identical and appeared quickly before I could remove and report the user. I then deleted his chats one by one. Is there a way that I could have deleted his entire string of chats at once?

I’m encountering an issue with Zoom  and my Plantronics Bluetooth headset for audio and microphone use. The headset works perfectly with other applications like Google Meet, You Tube, etc so I believe the device itself is functioning properly.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:Reviewed and followed all relevant Zoom support articlesChecked audio settings within Zoom and selected the correct input/output deviceVerified that the headset is connected and set as the default in the system audio settingsUninstalled, Installed, Restarted Zoom and my computerI show the green bars when conducting the testing but I cannot hear the sound or recordingSystem: Window 11PC: Lenovo ThinkpadDespite this, Zoom does not play or capture audio through the headset.Do you have any additional troubleshooting steps or suggestions? Any support would be greatly appreciated.

Next thing I know is I'm hearing the Andy Griffith TV show theme song over top of the song I'm sharing.THEN, I'm seeing participant's hands going up, one at a time (none of my participants even know how to raise their hand!).Then my cohost says that an ad*lt video is showing on everyone's screen, from the visitor. My cohost could not remove the visitor , and because the names in the participant list kept moving around (I'm guessing because of the hand-raising they were somehow doing).So.  My guess is the visitor had an ad*lt video as their background and then did a spotlight for all, which overrode the screen sharing I was doing.AND... SOMEHOW they were able to raise other participants' hands.  HOW ON EARTH ARE THEY ABLE TO DO THAT?!?I ended-up killing the meeting to stop it.Thanks for any thoughts on what happened!

During my Zoom conference, there were disturbing messages in the chat coming from 3 participants who I personally know would never do things like that. This has happened a few times with different participant names. Zoom bombers somehow can use the name of any random participant to send disturbing messages.   Does anyone have the same experience like this? I've researched Zoom bombing cases, but not one mentioned hijacking names and chats.

Instead of having different binary packages for each supported distribution, it would be great to have an official AppImage compatible with all of them. This would solve possible problems with the current packages as, for example, the missing dependencies of the current .deb Debian package in Debian Sid. For your reference, there's an unofficial AppImage in https://github.com/probonopd/Zoom.AppImage. Thanks!

I have our zoom set up so that everybody's rooms automatically record. This works for everybody except for one user. I cannot for the life of me figure out what is happening or how to fix it. Anyone else ever had this issue?

I forot to pay this plataform, and the meetings I've had recorded disappeard. How can I recover.... 

I was not the meeting host, but the recording link was shared with me to download it for offline use. Somehow, I missed downloading it, and yesterday the host had permanently deleted the recording from their Zoom account. I have the meeting link. Can Zoom recover it and share the recording with me? It was a very important meeting. I request that Zoom Team resolve this.

Hi,I've always used my pc to run meetings. I now want to change this to my Iphone but when signing into my account on my Iphone I can't see my scheduled meetings - can anyone point me to where I find them? Thank you in advance Gill 

Hello, I recently bought an iPad mainly to use for recording zoom classes but I found that it doesn’t record internal audio .Please can you add a feature that lets us record internal audio on iPad in zoom or tell me a way that I can record internal audio with without cloud recording. It would be really useful for studying and recording classes.

Hi we are using zoom in our environment, however we see traffic to this url "captive2.onzoom.com" is blocked by our firewalls, I would like to know when this will trigger and what process triggers this url

Hi!  I am a tutor and I meet with children 1:1 via Zoom.  I use a Personal Meeting ID number for these kids to preserve privacy (at least to the limited group of kids that I work with).   I am now wanting to host a reading hour for the same kids to attend, but would want to have them invite friends to it if they would like.I would like to send out an invite with a PMID number that they can share with others and also connect with me themselves.What is the best way to do this?  I am understanding that I cannot have a second PMID for my account...only one.   Thanks!

I h know how to get to virtual backgrounds, the problem is there are no backgrounds to choose from

I am the host of my meetings and intially I used to be able to record my meetings. Now I can't seem to record my meetings because everytime I click record, I get the error message "Recording features can't be started unless the host has joined". What do I do?

I bought myself some Bose QuietComfort® Earbuds. They work on everything except Zoom. I’ve gone through all the settings I could find. And still can’t get them to work on Zoom. Any ideas?I have a Mac laptop.

How can I prevent participants from recording a specific meeting using apps like Fathom?

I recorded a virtual play using Zoom, and didn't realize until after that it was only recording the person speaking at that moment. Since the whole thing was recorded, is it possible there is a way to switch it to the "everyone" version of it so both actors are consistently visible, or is it too late for that? And how do i prevent this in the future? 

I wear headphones all day, and end up in zoom meetings on a separate screen that are ongoing for war room-like calls, these calls usually go on for 8 hours plus.I want a sound/speaker mute button in zoom so that my headphones can switch to normal audio mode so that i can play music in a non- mono format which tends to happen as long as i am in the call, even though i have very involvement in the zoom call ? 

Several months ago I purchased the add-on so that I could get translated captions. Sometimes they work beautifully. Sometimes they SUCK.  Let me give you an example:During today's meeting (taking place in French) I had the translated captions on because my native tongue is English. Here is what Zoom translated during the meeting: Check the box on, pop up coffee. I think. Submit.Yeah. This is only on summer. A. I put? So say, Yeah, you. Part of it that ensemble, is it there. Papa, how.Our shen mem. Here the the problem. Benefit the validity on per me. I say, I say, prevail. The 2 vendors at the at the problem. Kuma. Meso, c. The. That? Can you strictly. They were wound of a blockage separate of process to projection. Tradikary Se Possible. Ensemble. Abre. In for power. C. Met. The. Kilogram. Dolly dollar. Like. Bye. Obviously this is nonsensical. I also had another transcriber running, here is what was

I am finding that I am not able to view images sent via the chat in meetings / classes. Others in the meetings can see them. I am using a galaxy tablet A10. I have updated zoom and searched here and other places on the web for solutions.I am looking for a solution - zoom is suggesting I view images via other apps but none of the ones I have - gallery etc will display them either.

How many AA meeting Zoom accounts have been affected by bombers, making removing them difficult by toggling the RAISE HAND feature?   Yes, we have a great security team, and we know how to use the participants list to type in the name and then eject the bomber, but some meetings don't have that because they are newer or smaller.  People are dying out there, trying to stop drinking, and the bombers are so prolific and scaring people off.   I've seen other meetings using screening questions to keep bombers out, but keep these desperate newcomers out, too.   Zoom is adding so many complex features, yet we cannot get them to listen to us to add something that to me, is quite simple.   How do we get this to somebody who will listen?  

I just lelft a meeting and forgot to save the transcription. Is there anyway I can still retrieve it?

Hi!I used to have active speaker working on Zoom for my recordings but no longer seem to have it.  The fixes all point to choosing active speaker on that top right hand menu, but it's not there for me. It seems to have worked for me randomly but I'm not at a loss as to how I can have it reintroduced to my 'view' selections. All I can see are Speaker / Gallery / Multi-Speaker / Immersive. Is there something I need to do? Or has it been removed? Neil

It's only possible or me to share the full screen instead of just a single window. How to reproduce: - Start a "New meeting".- Click "Share".- Choose "User system window capture" and click "Share".- [UNEXPECTED] "Remote control requested" is show.- Click "Share".- [UNEXPECTED] The whole screen is shared. I expected to see KDE's "Screen sharing" dialog that allows me to choose a single window. This works when using the web client through Firefox. I tried running the app with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb or XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME and it made no difference. I also tried setting capture mode on Wayland to "Pipewire Mode" and "Original Mode". No success either.  Software versions:Zoom: 6.1.1.443 x86_64 installed from zoom-6.1.1.443-1.src.rpm.OS: Fedora 40 running KDE Plasma 6.1.2 on Wayland. 

I lost my computer and all the database. Now I need to find some extremely important meeting recordings, but the meetings were from August 2025, and the recordings expired due to passing 30 days of storing on cloud. How can I recover these very importint recordings? Thank you so much, I hope there would be a way for this.
