Question

Mute and Unmute with AirPods Pro 3

With the AirPods Pro 2, I can mute and unmute by double-clicking on the stem. Not so with the AirPods Pro 3. Is this due to Zoom or Apple? It was a very handy feature that's now gone. Sad.

hi @Ansonee 

 

Please update your Zoom app to version 6.6.0 or higher. This may resolve the issue and enable the option to sync the buttons on your AirPod Pros.

 

You can also try to restart your AirPods.

Same issue, works great with AirPod Pro 2, does not work with AirPod Pro 3 on macOS Tahoe 26.0 (on the same MacBook Pro).
Getting the macOS Zoom system notifications "Cannot Control Mic with AirPods Pro".

 

One of the key features for Zoom calls.

@MGSR Hi Mark, 6.6.10 worked for me for a few weeks, but after updating again to 6.6.11.70003 it is no longer working for me. Is this a known bug, or is there something I am missing?
