Hey guys 

 

I accident dragged my zoom recording to my desktop of my computer and trashed the video to free up some space on my desktop. I came to edit my interview i did over zoom and found that the video was deleted because I dragged it out of the recordings folder. I have a basic account and I’m wondering if I upgrade to pro will I be able to retrieve or re download my recordings from previous meetings??? I’ve tried retrieving the videos from my trash can and still awaiting some help from Apple and I really need these interviews! Can someone please help me to get these videos again

Thank you

Virtual Backgrounds Not Showing

I have a new computer which is more powerful than my older one. My older one shows all virtual background options and I can use them, but the new one doesn't. It is an i5 with 32 gig Ram. 

Why can I see virtual background options on the older computer but not the new one pse? 

I have virtual background switched on in the settings.

My Zoom is paid for by the company I work for and I just have use of it and don't see anywhere that I can update Zoom under my account picture in the right corner, just my picture, name, email address (says Licensed) add account and sign out.

Thanks in advance.

Zoom app: kudos!

I want to say thank you for enabling Apps inside Zoom. This is a super useful feature!

 

I do online training with groups of 25-30 people at a time. I use Miro as a whiteboard tool and I have always asked individual people to open Miro in their own browser. This forces them to have 2 windows open - Zoom and Miro - and often they are on a laptop, making it difficult to see both windows.

Since I enabled the Miro app inside Zoom, they can see the whiteboard within Zoom, and only need 1 window.

 

I also appreciate that the Miro app stays open as the participants move into a breakout room for some activities, and come back to the main room. The app is activated once, and they continue to collaborate on it throughout the entire session.

 

There are a few limitations that I hope can be addressed in the future:

- the app only works if people have the zoom app installed, not in a browser

- for the host, if I jump into a breakout room, the app is disabled.  I need to re-enable the app in the breakout room, but this also resets the app for the participants there. So jumping from one room to another is no longer practical if I want them to use the Miro app.

- for the host, if I share my screen, the app is disabled. I need to re-enable it for the participants. I may want to do a quick screen share for maybe a webpage or a document I'd like them to see, and then close the screenshare. But when I close it, the app is gone.

- For the host, the apps panel is on the right. When I start an app it shows on the right. When I click "collaborate" to share it with everyone else, it moves to the left. This is distracting... is it needed?

- For the host, the apps panel is busy and confusing.

- There could be an option to enable/disable the apps in the breakout rooms, or select which apps are available there.

I haven't tried a multi-app setup where I have more than one app active at a time. I feel that first I need to make the one-app setup work well, before I go to the next level. I'm afraid that in a multi-app setup the issues above may be compounded, and I may not have easy access or visibility into what app the participants see or have access to.

 

Thanks for listening to these suggestions, and keep up the good work! The idea of integrating apps inside Zoom is awesome!

Show the breakout room number while in the breakout room

When you go in a breakout room, it's hard to see what room you belong to. A message is only briefly shown, if you miss it, you miss it. People may not be friendly enough with the tool to go and figure out what room they belong to. When in a breakout ... Show more

When you go in a breakout room, it's hard to see what room you belong to. A message is only briefly shown, if you miss it, you miss it. People may not be friendly enough with the tool to go and figure out what room they belong to.

 

When in a breakout room, there could be people sharing a screen, or a Zoom app running. All of these take real estate in the top bar, and the breakout room number disappears.

 

I would prefer for the breakout room to always be shown. This is useful for context, and simplifies the user experience.

 

For example, it could be important to know the room number when the host has assigned exercises to individual rooms, and sends people randomly there. People right now get confused because they can't see their room's number.

Hi there, 

 

my video is perfect in preview mode before entering the meeting. 

Upon entering the meeting Zoom is zooming my video in. That sucks. I have a fine background with my company logo put in perfect lighting. 

I use zoom in chrome browser, actual version.

It has nothing to do with my camera settings, the OS settings or the browser settings: Google Meet and Teams work perfectly well. 

Please help. It is just ugly to have my video zoomed in. 

Thanks
Frank

Resolved! Spotlighting yourself during a recording but also being able to view attendees during a yoga class

I want to record a yoga class and only spotlight myself on the recording so there is no problem with data protection issue.  However I need to view everyone on the screen during the live class so I can correct their posture if required and for health and safety reasons.

Currently if I pin myself that only records myself which is what I want. However it makes the other people on the zoom show as very small boxes at the top of the screen and I cannot see them properly. 

Any suggestions to solve this are welcome 

thanks in anticipation

Melanie

I saved about a dozen contacts in the program. According to everything I have seen when I want to schedule a meeting I can start typing the first 3 or more letters in the name/email of the contact in the attendees field and a list should pop up of names that match. Is there an option I need to turn on to make that happen?
