I have the Professional paid-for version of Zoom (I think 6.5.9) and my own regular meeting room ID and passcode.  A few weeks ago I followed the prompt and upgraded the Zoom on my main personal computer to the latest version.  Ever since then, other users cannot join my personal meeting room.  They get a message saying "Waiting for the host to start the meeting."

My secondary laptop has an older version of Zoom, 6.3.11, and on it I CAN host meetings as normal.  It prompts me to upgrade to Version 6.5.9, which I will not do until I sort out the problem on my main computer.

Both my main computer and my laptop run Windows 10 Professional.

I dont see any recent discussion on this topic so I will ask it again, apologies if i have overlooked a thread somewhere.

Does Zoom support use of an external usb webcam when joining a zoom meeting from an Android device such as the Samsung Galaxy S9. 

If this is not currently supported, is there any chance it will be supported in the future?

Thank you!

Hello,

I am a licensed Zoom host and use Zoom daily for teaching. Since the most recent update, the annotation tools have been reduced and this has made my work much more difficult:

• The Text tool is no longer available in the annotation toolbar.

• The colour options have been reduced from 16 colours down to only 4, and the white colour is missing completely.

These features were essential for teaching — especially when annotating during lessons to highlight different answers, write in different colours for clarity, and use text boxes. Losing them has negatively affected both my teaching flow and the learning experience for my students.

Please could you let me know:

• If this change was intentional or a bug.

• Whether Zoom plans to restore the full set of annotation tools (text + full colour palette).

As a paying customer, I strongly request that these tools be reinstated, or that the same functionality is made available within the classic annotation feature without requiring the new Whiteboard.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Kind regards

My synagogue host zoom during the Jewish High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.  Participants can hear everything except when the Rabbi blows the Shofer.  Has anyone had this problem and how they were able to resolve it?  Any help would be most appreciated.

Hello,

In some of our meetings, we’ve set it up so the alternative host can start the meeting without our onsite support. If any issues come up, we’ll join as a co-host to assist.

However, we’ve noticed that when we as the organizers are about to join, Zoom still shows the “Start” option, even if the meeting has already been started by the alternative host. In the Workplace app, the notification also says the meeting is “20 minutes past the scheduled time, please start it,” which can be confusing if another team member doesn’t realize the meeting is already running.

It would be much clearer if the notification popped up as something like:

• “The alternative host has started the meeting. Join?”
  or

• Simply changing the “Start” button to “Join” once the meeting has already been started by the alternative host.

This small adjustment would help avoid confusion for our team.

Thank you!

My Zoom app keeps crashing for no reason (I don't know why). I've tried all the solutions on the internet (reinstalling, reboot, cleanup chaches, update, etc) but all of them don't take any effect, still "not responding". I even don't get any error code or troubleshoot so the crashed app doesn't let me know what is the problem. I'm very upset.
I hope someone can kindly help me because I have many schedules on it so I really really need this to be solved. The "Bolt" and "Contact Support" don't help me anything as bad as they are. Big thanks to all of you who can help me get away from this.
