Meetings only showing a day at a time on home screen

I used to be able to view all upcoming meetings on my home screen, but now I can only see them day by day and have to manually go to that particular day.

 

I want to be able to see my upcoming meetings at a glance, how do I get back to that?

 

Thanks.

I'm a TA at a university and we're using Canvas to host the class and classes will very virtual on zoom through Canvas. All semester I haven't been able to connect to zoom. I get error code 2216. I thought it was because I didn't have a university email address but now I do and have added it to my Canvas profile and made it my primary. But I'm still getting the error. Any ideas of how to fix this? I'm trying to get this resolved as soon as possible as the next semester will be starting soon

My God guys - EVERYONE ABSOLUTELY HATES this "feature."

If we want to pull our hand down, we can do it ourselves.

Get rid of this PLEASE - or at least implement a way to turn it off. 

There is nothing more infuriating than waiting to comment in a Zoom meeting for 15 min. and then finding your hand has been dropped because you told your dog to lay down or something.

I have 3 meetings which are recurring and they show up in Meetings under Recurring in my paid account, but nowhere can I find the links to the meetings.

You used to be to able to copy an invitation.

I need to be able to do this because I don't always have access to email accounts with my clients and often share access via a message thread.

Where are the meeting links?

Thx.

Hi, does anyone have any idea why my zoom crashes mid meeting and causes my computer to blue screen? It has happened the last 3 times I have been hosting meetings. Not only is it embarrassing but it takes about 10 mins to get back online. I have had hardware checked and apparently ok. My laptop is only 6 months old, I upgraded specifically so I wouldn't have zoom issues. It is a HP but zoom keeps failing. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I have updated Logitech webcam software, I don't have anything else running when I am online, and still after about 10 minutes each time it gives my computer a blue screen. Any assistance, tips, ideas to try or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Having a problem with a specific host on Zoom. I use Zoom and have never had any technical issues whatsoever - except for this particular one. Had a few meetings initially - no issues. The last two meetings - despite doing a zoom test re:  controls prior with no issues showing / all systems go - I have experienced extreme frustration as I was unable to access my mic primarily and have also had issues with the camera and chat. Both times, I continued to attempt to engage my mic the entire time - and other attendees noticed this and told the host to unmute me. At the very end of the second time these tech issues  happened, the chat suddenly became active in the last 5 minutes as people were leaving - which I find odd.  I then quickly texted and asked the moderator to check in at the end. She waited - and told me that I should " find someone younger to help " which was imho rude and dismissive. I am really puzzled as these meetings were cleared as all systems go on Zoom - as well as the fact that my chat suddenly started working only at the end of a session which I find odd. Does this not point to Admin controlling ? As I had no desire to continue to pay for such a frustrating experience , I cancelled and further meetings with this host. I have since had several Zoom meetings with other groups no issues whatsoever. Any thoughts on my experience not being able to enable the mic, chat and camera ( one time ). Host is not taking any responsibility on their end and telling me that they " can't be responsible for my technical difficulties"  - which ONLY happened with host the last two times. Thanks for any thoughts you may have.

I am unable to change my default screen name in my zoom profile online. I can change the screen name in the zoom app but it always resets to the default. When I try to update my profile in the zoom website the screen has a spinning circle like it is loading but it never loads. It seems like a website malfunction. I have tried several times over. the past week and the situation is the same.

 

I have a free account. I am using safari on mac book pro. Most recent operating system.

In most Zoom meetings (and Teams meetings), my headphones and microphone work perfectly.  In one weekly Zoom meeting, Zoom keeps lowering my microphone volume so no one can hear me.  I have a short-term work around to switch to internal and back to external microphone on my Win10 machine, and my mic works for a little bit until maybe someone else talks, and then my volume goes down again.

I've tried adjusting microphone volume, turning on/off zoom echo cancelling and automatic volume settings, but nothing works.  I've seen several other people post similar problems.  I think there is a problem with the Zoom software for echo cancelling that when there is a certain combination of people using particular versions of Zoom or, more likely, particular types of headsets (most others have bluetooth, but I have analog), that it chooses one person to lower their volume to try to reduce echo (even though we don't hear any echo).

Please fix this because it is very annoying.
