Resolved! Lenovo laptops crashing on Zoom meetings, please help!

Hello, 

I work for an MSP that supports both Windows and Mac devices. Over the last month, we've noticed that users of specifically LENOVO devices (laptops) are experiencing an issue where their devices crash whenever they enter meetings. The devices lock up and need to be hard shut down and rebooted to operate again. We've tried reinstalling zoom, turning off hardware acceleration, making sure the device is up to date etc. 

This seems to be something related to how Zoom and Lenovo are interacting at the software level, but we need a solution ASAP, as this behavior is spreading across all client using Lenovo devices!

Could you please explain what might be causing this and suggest possible solutions?

Wide angle on iPad for music lesson

Hello,

i want to use the wide angle camera on my iPad air. Clearly Zoom has access to it since center stage works fine, but how can i use it without center stage?

I need it for my online music lesson as my whole instrument should be visible.

Since I updated the app on my iPad 10 on the 16th of December, every time I leave the main window to share a file through Google Drive, share a link from Safari or share my screen, my Zoom crashes and I have to sign back into the meeting I was hosting.  For about 15 seconds after, my account can be seen in two windows to my participants (one frozen from when my Zoom crashed and the other working regularly of when I signed back in).

 

There was an update on the 17th that had bug fixes, but it didn't solve the problem.

 

I tried restarting my iPad to no avail.  

 

Is anyone else having the same issue?

Hello, 

 

Can someone direct me to the new areas where older functions can be located in the new workspace version of Zoom Meetings? I want to share my screen and give remote access to the Zoom participants. I used to be able to do that under the Share function. Now I can't find that option. 

 

Thank you!

Hello - just updated zoom today (11.02.22) and it seems like Original Sound needs to be turned on manually every time now.

 

For the last few months it was already always on once I did it initially ... and this was so amazing. No more messing up meetings where I share audio or workshops where we're working on music things and I just know its going to sound amazing from the beginning without the extra awkward "wait let me turn on original sound".

 

Is there a way for me to turn original sound on and let it be that way forever on the newest version? If not...can this become a thing please?

I am having great difficulty in working out how to view my meetings now. The Zoom Meetings home page used to have a tab labelled 'Meetings', this has now gone and it seems that it has all been migrated to Calendar so there is now no longer a simple definitive 1 page list of future meetings that can be viewed. Also when setting up a meeting there no longer is a tab labelled 'Copy Invitation' once it has been completed. There have been some radical and none too helpful changes recently and not for the better by any means!!

Our company has been getting spam Zoom invites for webinars, and because we are all on iOS, it is automatically included in our calendars, etc.

 

As they are valid Zoom meeting requests, even just declining these meetings is a pain, so the admin has just blocked any email from zoom.us, and told everyone to use "something else."

 

Is there a way to report these spam to Zoom? Zoom does not do customer support very well.

Hello ,

I have a German account. A Paid account. For several weeks now, I have been unable to turn my “original musician sound” on and off. It is always on and even cannot be turned off in the audio settings at the bottom left. Who can help, please?
