"Add failed, the calendar-related access permissions are not allowed."

 

Cannot start zoom on Mac laptop.

Zoom is asking me to connect to mail and calendar and when I do try to connect google calendar, I get this response:

"Add failed, the calendar-related access permissions are not allowed."

 

Please HELP! 

How do we remove this feature from zoom and revert back to the original way of logging on without Zoom mail/calendar.

 

Thanks!
