Hi, Im having real trouble trying to get a zoom background working. I have been to https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360043484511-System-requirements-for-Virtual-Background#h_... and am trying to understand mac requirements.

My mac details are as follows:

MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015)

Processor 1.6 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5

Im having trouble trying to find out if it's a 6th gen processor or not?

Can anyone help out please?

hi chris16,

 

please see apple support article about display of system info.

Get system information about your Mac - Apple Support

 

once you have this apple info, the zoom support article you list should help.

 

zoom settings ->statistics pages (overall, audio and video) can help diagnose issues such as cpu activity level, memory usage, internet connection packet loss, jitter and latency, frames per second and resolution.
