URL Link Did Not Work To Join A Meeting

When we initiate meetings, we send out a meeting ID and a code or password.

 

For a meeting I was to attend today, I only got a URL link.  That would not get me into the meeting.  It opened up in Safari.  When I allowed it to open up in the Zoom App, it asked for a meeting ID and passcode.  Those were not sent to me.

 

Apparently the others could get into the meeting with that code.

 

On the Mac, I was using Version: 5.15.10 (21826).  On my iPhone, I am using 5.15.5 (9303).

 

What went wrong?

 

The link looked similar to this (I truncated it for privacy):

https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81298234382?pwd=NFNCOUxNdG5yNnR0c0s3Nkh

 

When I hit the link, it opened me up in the browser, which was normal.  Then it asked permission to open up in the Zoom app.  

There it asked for the meeting ID and password.
The other people who attended did not need a passcode, but I did. 

Did I do something wrong?   Or did they?

 

I am using a Mac with the latest Zoom software.   I also tried signing on an iPhone and got the same roadblock.

Zoom is asking that I update to the 5.12.2 version. Through the chat box, they suggest clicking on the profile picture, then check for updates. When I click on my profile picture I do not get a drop down menu, but see my name, plans and billing and sign out.

The chat box suggested I ask in this forum.

Has anyone else had this issue? How did you resolve it. Do I need to uninstall an reinstall the app?

Zoom quit working on my laptop so I had to uninstall it and download to reinstall. It used to sync to my Micrisoft calendar and bring up an invite when I scheduled Zoom meetings. It no longer does that.  How do I get Zoom to generate the Microsoft invite and put it on my Microsoft calendar? I have the online version of Microsoft 365.

I use Zoom on a Pixelbook. The last two times I have entered a meeting my video is just showing a black screen. The video icon is greyed out so I am unable to activate it. When the meeting organiser sends me a request to turn it on it doesn’t work. It does work for all the other meeting attendees and it works for me if I use an iPhone or a laptop

Won't let me livestream to a group on FB I don't understand the 3 pieces of URL information asked 4

Hi all

 

I'm trying to set up livestream to a specific group in which I'm speaking on Wednesday.  I wanted to practice this in a separate private FB group as I've been told I can do that. 

However, there's no option on the drop down when I ask to stream live to FB to choose anything other than my own timeline.  I have changed my settings to include custom streaming.  A page pops up asking for 3 pieces of URL information about URLs, one is the stream key URL, and there's another 2.  I have no idea what any of these mean, and then there's some note about destinations must be public?  Does this mean I cannot livestream into any private FB group at all?

I'm not a techy and the zoom intruction pages don't explain what these 3 bits of URL info are (there are no examples).  

I'm on the Pro plan (which to be honest costs enough and I don't even know why I was asked to pay for a plan) - I don't want to have to upgrade to a business plan.  Many thanks

I had save my zoom video after discussed with my partner. I saved the zoom video from the webinar in the zoom folder in my documents. Then I opened the video again to see the recording by moving it to another folder. However, when viewing the video suddenly the video stopped working and the video file was lost. How do I find my zoom video again?
