Hi Zoom Community, I am running Windows 11 on an HP Elitebook laptop. My video screen is black on Zoom. However, my video works with all other video conferencing platforms (Google Meet, MS Teams, etc.) so it's not a hardware issue. I have tried all Zoom troubleshooting articles -- disabled anti-virus applications, updated video drivers, and restarted my computer but still cannot solve the issue. Hoping the Zoom community can assist! Thanks.

I want to interview a guest via zoom on my ipad and record ONLY the guest video. Even when I turn off my camera, the recording still switches to a black screen of my audio instead of remaining on my guest. On PC, this is not a problem. How do I do it on iPad?

Hello, I did a bulk import from CSV for participants of a scheduled Zoom meeting so participants didn't need to register themselves. When we held the actual meeting everyone was prompted to re-register in the meeting and some stuck in the dreaded registration loop though I re-sent the proper link to them. Is there some setting I may have missed when trying to do the registration import?

I have an M1 Mac with multiple screens. After Friday update when I share screen now 2 of my external screens lock up when sharing. Have to reboot to fix every time. Can I revert to last zoom version?
We do not have one-click passcode links enabled for our meetings and Webinars. If I enable one-click passcode URLs, will that affect the existing links that I've already created and distributed for existing meetings and events? I don't want to enable the one-click passcode links if that's going to invalidate the existing login links I already have. Any thoughts?

I have scheduled a meeting with members in Arkansas. For those who do not sign in via zoom, what phone number can they use to call in vs. sign in via computer? Thank you.
