Meetings

I set up a meeting with a PowerPoint presentation and used the feature to put the speaker on the screen (the floating head) with the presentation.  I want to be able to have other joining speakers populate when they are speaking, or start and stay on the screen with the presentation from the beginning.  I don't want to spotlight them. Is this possible in the meeting setting? 

Hey there, I've been using Zoom for recording podcast interviews, saved locally. My main work computer, which I have been using for all my podcasting activity, freezes occasionally, usually right after I log in. It's a long story and not a huge problem - certainly not worth clearing my hard drive and reinstalling everything - but it does mean that it's possible that it freezes while I'm in the middle of recording an interview. My question: What actually happens to my recording if the computer freezes? Is it gone forever? Is there anything I can do to back them up so I will have something to convert even if my computer freezes or crashes? Grateful for any tips - thanksIan

Hi, I have configured various accounts and found that one had almost all data centers opted-in, another was missing a few, and another had only two data centers opted-in. I don't know the reason for the difference, whether it was configured in the past, or because it was previously a free account. May I ask, assuming the user has never changed the setting, are all data centers opted-in by default on paid accounts? This is important because I have seen a user connected to a data center on the other side of the globe, which could have been the reason for two disconnections during an important meeting. Thanks in advance for any help.

I schedule several different types of meetings - some that we want participants to chat with everyone and some where we want participants to only chat with the host/co-host. It would be helpful to edit this setting for meetings as they're scheduled rather than the current options of a.) changing the global setting every time I need to schedule a meeting or b.) changing the setting after the meeting starts. Is there really no workaround for this?

Dear Zoom Support Team/Community,I’m writing to report a persistent issue I’ve been experiencing with my Logitech Brio webcam when using Zoom on macOS 15.7.1 (Sonoma). My Zoom version is 6.6.2 (65462). During meetings, the field of view (FoV) and zoom settings reset to their default values mid-call, without any input from me. This happens intermittently but consistently enough to be disruptive. I use Logi Tune on my Mac to set and maintain the desired FoV/zoom, and the application remains open throughout the meeting. However, Zoom seems to override these settings unexpectedly, forcing me to manually re-adjust the camera mid-session.Here are a few relevant details:macOS Version: 15.7.1Zoom Version: 6.6.2 (65462)Camera: Logitech BrioLogitech Software:

Hey All, I am experiencing a weird issue, and I can't for the life of me track down what is going on.  Some brief background:  I have a Juniper SRX340 running JUNOS 23.4R2I join my meeting via my Mac which is a 2023 M3 Pro with 36GB of RAMFrom my Juniper SRX I connect to 2 Arista 7280's in an MLAG setup, which feeds my Arista 720 and Arista C330 AP'sI am joining all my meeting via Wifi - where my recent speed/bufferbloat test show nearly 1Gbps symetrical and A+ rating for no bufferbloat. Symptoms: During my Zoom meetings calls will typically start relatively normal.  At some point during the call, but always within the first 30 minutes, I will start to hear choppy audio and frozen video and I get the message "Your Internet Connection is Unstable".  Ultimately after a few minutes of really choppy audio, the call drops and reforms.  Sometimes this

Hello. I have a 2017 MacBook with Ventura 13.7.8 OS. Per the system, my OS is updated. Please confirm with me if this is compatible in using virtual backgrounds? I have tried everything but the system will not let me change my background nor I have the option to blur my background. 

This morning, I recorded a very important conference, and while I was converting the file, AVAST blocked the process for suspected fraudulent activity from ZOOM on my computer.  So all I have now is the beginning of the file that was converted (about 115 Mo out of a total of 482) The strorage vas made on my computer Mac Book Air and I looked everywhere for the orignal recording before the aborted file conversion, including in the trash but I cannot find it anywhere. Any hints as to where it could be?   Does ZOOM keep a record of recordings somewhere for a limited time ?  This happened yesterday Tuesday at 2pm Atlantic time.  Thank you so much for your help.Best regard to all

Hi everyone! Well... The title pretty much explains everything! Thing is, I'm aBasisc / Non-Paying Customer, and can't ask this to the bot thingy... 🤨🫤😶 So... I'm looking for any HUMAN here to help... If you guys have been through the same problem. In the cell/ tablet app: There's this collapsible tab on the lower left side where you can turn on the volume to share the sound when you're on the "Share Screen" option. That works just fine when I want to share stuff on YouTube. But if I want to share the audio while on any given page while on a browser, like Chrome, then that feature doesn't work. If anyone has any ideas on that, I'd be eternally grateful!  I've tried to explain this to the bot but it just kind of 'short circuit' (in a non-literal) way... And Basic Customers don't get to talk to humans if we need help... 🫤🥺😶 so... that's why I'm he

The 11th Judicial Circuit of Florida is the nation's 3rd largest Judicial Circuit and it is currently using Zoom as its' platform of choice for Court hearings since the pandemic broke out. You all have been a great asset not just to the state of Florida but to its' citizens. I'm hoping this discussion sheds light and hopefully fixes a limitation we are experiencing with the interpretation system in zoom.As you can imagine, here in South Florida we have heavy demand of language interpretation services from the courts. Currently, our staff have to instruct all attendees needing interpretation through a 4 button selection process in order to get them to the proper channel so they can hear the SpanishCreole language channel. This is highly disruptive to the court case and even if taken aside (breakout room) it is still requiring extra time and effort from court staff. It would be highly beneficial to the citizens of Florida if the court staff (Host, Co-Host and/or the Assigned In

Over the past 3 weeks or so, invitees are not getting my Zoom invites. I'm on a Mac.  How do I fix this?

Nous avons une LENOVO TF301FU et depuis la dernière mise à jour nous avons perdu les commandes des réunions. Comment y palier? Y-a-t-il un problème avec Zoom et Android 13, attention la tablette  

Hey everyoneI’m setting up recurring meetings for my small team on Zoom, but the schedule sometimes resets or disappears after a few edits.I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong in the “recurrence” settings or if it’s a syncing issue with my calendar.Has anyone faced this before? Would love to know how you fixed it.Thanks in advance!

I use Zoom to teach senior fitness classes. I use my MacBook for the camera and mic and I hook it up with an HDMI cord to my big screen tv so I can see a larger screen. Then, when I play music with Spotify on. my laptop, the sound comes through my tv and my participants can hear me talk and the music as well. All of a sudden, they can hear me, but NO music at all! So I decided to play music with my phone sitting next to the laptop, and they couldn't hear that either. But they can still hear ME loud and clear! Finally, I took my phone, playing the music as loud as possible with me and put it next to my mouth.  When I talked, they could hear me, but no music. What the heck?? Can Zoom possibly be able to filter out any music and just allow voices on audio to be heard by participants?????

Good morning.I've just bought "Large rooms - 1000" and tomorrow I'm having an event for 900 participants. I've read that I'll only be able to allocate 200 in the breakout rooms, how do I change that option? I want to create 50 breakout rooms with 18 participants in each.Thank you very much.

I have turned off adblocker because my video display is a black screen. It didn't do anything and my video display is still a black screen. My laptop is Windows 11 (Lenovo).

(My subject line is a quote from the Zoom instructions.)   I'm on a research team using Zoom audio transcripts for hour-long research interviews. We're finding the quality of the audio transcription to be very good. However, the frequency of what Zoom calls "sections" is extreme -- sometimes every two seconds, even though the speaker hasn't changed. I can understand having a section each time a speaker changes, but what we're experiencing is much more frequent. It makes the transcripts much less readable. However, deleting hundreds of timestamps for every transcript seems quite a waste of time. Has anyone else found a way to avoid the extreme frequency of these timestamps?   As a related curiosity, under Advanced Cloud Recording Settings there's a setting for "add a timestamp to the recording," which I've always had as unselected. Since the frequent timestamps appear anyway, maybe I should experiment and check that setting just to see what happe

I have a transcript from an important Meetings conversation that is broken into so many time stamps that the transcript is near useless because I'll need to spend a long time deleting and combining phrases to create complete sentences. It has broken everything into short phrases, many just two or three words, before adding another one.  I was poking around to see if I could regenerate the transcript, and so far do not see how to do that. In the process, I discovered that I actually have the option to allow a time stamp for cloud recordings unchecked. So I would think I should not even be getting them.  So two questions: why am I getting time stamps with this turned off, and is there a way to fix this current transcript?

With a free account, how do I set up the profile image? I do not see the steps to do this.  also, with the free account, how to set up a background image? thanks

I was recording a meeting. After the meeting ended and it was time to convert it to mp4, I got a message that said something around "there's another conversion happening, after it ends go to your account and convert it from there." The message was true; a previous meeting recording was being converted.  I pressed okay but the thing is I didn't sign in to enter that meeting so I can't find it on my account. Please help, I need to send that recording to someone as fast as possible.

I broke SSO and need someone from Zoom to resolve it as I can't login to either submit a ticket or call anymore. How do I go about resolving this issue?

I have enabled the translation function and have been using it for many many times.However, it suddenly disappeared when I was scheduling a meeting last Sat.I have checked that the translation function is still enabled and I have already updated my Zoom to the latest version.When I start a new meeting, I cannot assign someone to be the translaor. Also, I cannot see the "earth logo" in the Zoom meeting.I checked my recurring meeting and the "earth logo" still exist.If anybody knows the solution, please help. I need the translation function urgently. Thanks!

In many organizations, meeting productivity is being slowed down by manual tasks like renaming participants, admitting people one by one, or enabling recordings. It would be great to explore smarter automation features directly within Zoom to streamline these repetitive actions.For example, being able to auto-assign breakout rooms based on predefined tags, automatically activate transcription, or even trigger integrations without needing separate tools.Has anyone here implemented creative workflows to make meetings run smoother? I’d love to hear how other teams are optimizing their Zoom experience.
