Recurring Zoom Webinar Still Appears in Attendees’ Calendars After Deletion

Hello Zoom Support,

 

I’m experiencing a persistent issue related to a recurring Zoom webinar that I created a couple of weeks ago. Here’s the full context:

  1. I originally created a recurring Zoom webinar via the Zoom web platform and added one panelist.

  2. I did not send invites through Zoom, but instead created a separate calendar event in Google Calendar for all participants. I added the Zoom link there manually and sent out the invites via Google Calendar.

  3. After some time, I needed to cancel and change the topic, so I went to Zoom and deleted the webinar entirely from the Zoom dashboard.

  4. I also went to Google Calendar and deleted the full recurring series of events by choosing “All Events.” The event shows as deleted on my end.

  5. However, participants are still seeing the event in their calendars — including the panelist, and others who received the original calendar invite.

  6. In some cases, it even shows Panelist as the organizer now, even though I was the original host. I’m concerned this may be due to how calendar ownership behaves after a deletion.

 

I’ve tried all of the following:

  • Deleting the event series entirely from Google Calendar

  • Removing myself as organizer

  • Confirming that the Zoom event no longer exists in my Zoom dashboard or trash

  • Asking the participants to manually delete the event — but some are still confused because the event keeps showing up

What I need help with:

  1. Is there a way to forcefully remove this Zoom event from all attendees’ calendars, especially those who received it via Google Calendar?

  2. Why does the calendar event still persist even though it’s fully deleted from Zoom?

  3. Can Zoom forcefully revoke this meeting link or ID across calendars?

  4. Is there any setting or practice I should follow in the future to prevent this behavior when canceling or rescheduling webinars?

Chat functions in Webinars- Presenters only?

I'm planning to host a webinar and will disable the chat for participants, relying on the Q&A function for questions.  I wondered if there was a setting where presenters can use the chat as a "one-way communication" with participants?  I will have 300+ participants and didn't want the chat going but my presenters would like to share a link to a survey with their audience at the end of the session (without receiving responses back or fielding side conversations).  Thanks for advice!

When someone adds me as an alternative host to a meeting, I would like that meeting to show up in my Meetings panel. Otherwise, to actually join in the host role, I need to find the email that I got and use that link.  (I think this is the case, though I am not 100% sure.) It would be much easier if I could just go to Meetings and click there.


This has been bugging me for a while. I don't really expect a reply; just putting it out there as a nice feature to add.

Hi everyone,

 

I've been using zoom webinars for some time, and today I encountered this problem for the first time.

I was in webinar practice session with two others panelists and none of us were able to share sound during screen sharing. I can see the Share Audio option in the bottom corner, but I can't check it.
I would appreciate any solution to this.

Hello.

 

I am an interpreter who has worked on Zoom very frequently in the past four years. Recently, I have noticed that the original sound from the floor can be heard in the background when listening to my colleagues' relays.

Let's say the original sound is Japanese, and I am listening to my colleague's English. Although my colleague's voice is louder than the original sound, I can still hear it in the background, which is extremely distracting.

 

Other interpreters have told me that they have the same issue.  So, I can safely say that it isn't a problem with my headset (Plantronics Blackwire 8225). 

 

Is there an audio setting I can enable to prevent this situation? 

 

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Without changing anything, one day this started happening. I am connected to computer audio as usual. And the laptop's speaker is chosen but I can't hear anything. I open the audio settings to test the speaker and before even clicking on it suddenly I can hear the speaker. I test the speaker (same laptop speaker) and can hear the chime. Great. Close the window and can no longer hear the speaker. So now I have the window open the entire meeting to be able to hear while I try to figure this out. Help!

- shared screen with gallery view

- Speaker view

- Gallery view
- Audio only

Hope you can help with a solution 🙂

Resolved! Zoom Sessions Pay Per Attendee Plan - Add More Attendees

The organization I work for purchased the Zoom Sessions (Pay Per Attendee) plan for up to 50 attendees. I misunderstood the plan and thought it would allow for 50 attendees per session, not per year. We have already used 45 attendees, so we will need to purchase more. When I go to 'Manage Plan' and 'Add More Attendees', you can select a plan for 50, 100, 600, etc. If we purchase one of these plans, is that 50/100/600 attendees in addition to the original 50 we had purchased? Thank you.

My organization is new to Zoom. We have the Zoom webinars subscription, WITHOUT the webinar resources option. With the webinar software we had previously, we were able to upload a pdf document during meeting set up so that all attendees could access no matter when they joined the call. We no longer have that option. Does anyone have a solution for sharing a link to a pdf file DURING a webinar? We can share it in the chat, but I don't want to have to share it multiple times throughout the webinar for people that login late. Any advice you can provide is helpful!
