I am having an issue with Zoom on alot of Mac devices specifically 16" Intel MacBooks.

Zoom seems to grind the systems to a halt due.  All systems are fully up to date and Zoom is fully updated.

From what I can see Zoom seems to be causing very high temperatures.

It's possible that Zoom is not working on your Mac because the Camera or Microphone (or both) are in use in different app. Before joining a Zoom meeting, close any other apps that might be using the Camera or Microphone. This includes apps like FaceTime, Skype, and Photo Booth.

 

Hope this helps,
