Hi~ I just hosted a Zoom meeting where all of the participant's names were not displayed as their names, but as my name (the host). Some of the participants were able to manually edit their names during the meeting. But generally, this made for a confusing meeting, especially in the chat—where participants who hadn't changed their names were posting under my name (the host).

This is a Zoom meeting that I had pre-scheduled with a registration form. Afterwards when I downloaded the participant report, the participant's real names were included, but each was listed with another participant's email address (weird).

I've hosted many Zoom meetings, and this has never happened to before. How can I ensure that participant names will be displayed properly in my Zoom meetings going forward?

(Not sure if Collaboration tools is the right topic but system seemed to suggest that.  The real topic is the same as the post subject.)

Suddenly 1/30/23 while traveling to my dad's funeral and trying to zoom the proceedings to relatives around the world zoom desktop client refuses to open.  I tried creating my own meeting, i tried having someone else invite me to the meeting, i tried re-installing zoom, nothing worked. The pop up comes up saying 'Open zoom launcher' and clicking the button dismisses the window, but then nothing happens.  Same result by trying to open the desktop app directly.  Same result everytime since then i have tried to join a meeting.  Same result by logging into my account and creating a new meeting and trying to start the meeting.  Nothing!  Went thru all the suggestions of the chatbot including deleting the data folder in the User App Data folder.  Nothing works.  Works fine on a different computer set up essentially the same way. 

TIA

When hosting a meeting - participants who closed their video off, used to stop showing the person's face, and switched to show the participant's name only.

Something has changed - now when a participant switches his video off, you cannot see him unless you 

switch on the participants list.  -  its useful to know that a participant has switched his camera off and is still listening to whats going on, and for the host to know he is still logged on. 

Anything I can do ?

Hey 🙂

I downloaded the Kahoot app a few months ago and I want to use it soon.

In a Zoom meeting, I clicked on the Kahoot app but all of a sudden it says that I can't authorise the app and it only gives me the option to decline.

How do I fix this?

I'm 5 months in to my first year of the Zoom Meetings Pro plan.

Thanks!
