Outlook Calendar Events Does Not Sync On Zoom Web For Upcoming Meetings

One of my users has been having issues with Outlook Calendar invites not showing up on Zoom web calendar and upcoming meetings. My users are mainly using Mac devices. I noticed that users who are assigned co-hosts to events don't have their calendar events showing up on their upcoming meetings.

 

The events show up on the Zoom app and their Outlook calendars, but it does not appear on Zoom web.

 

As an admin, I enabled bi-directional sync, but that still did not sync the one-off Outlook calendar events to their Zoom web calendar. 

 

We're running on O365 Business Standard licenses as well for Outlook.

 

Are there any troubleshooting steps I can take to remediate this issue?

My CPU is AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor 3.80 GHz. Based on these specs, I should be able to use VB yet I am unable to unless I am misunderstanding something.

Hi,

 

Just wondering if it possible to limit a meeting to just 10 minutes. We are trying to setup parents evening calls via Zoom but want to limit each video call to just 10 minutes. I believe the shortest meeting slot is currently 15 minutes.

 

Any ideas would be most welcome.

 

Many thanks.

 

Kind Regards,

How to reuse old Personal Meeting ID at new company?

I've recently changed companies.  At my old company, I'd set my Personal Meeting ID to my (personal) mobile number.   I find that, even though my Zoom account with my old company should have been closed, I cannot set up my new company's Zoom account with this same ID.  Since my old account is no longer active, I feel the new account should be able to see this as a unique ID.  Any thoughts?

Resolved! Sudden problems: Automatic Recording & Audio only via Phone!

After two years of using Zoom for multiple kinds of meetings without problems, suddenly last Sunday, Aug. 29, two anomalies arose:

 

• Recording of meeting began automatically without my ever having clicked for automatic recording (in fact, I cannot find an automatic recording activation button where another website said it would be!).

 

• Zoom participants could see me but not hear me.  On my end, Mac internal microphone was fully activated, but when I tried Join Audio all that came up was a window I'd never seen before that provided only Phone & some numbers to use for doing audio via phone.

 

Retrying since then has produced same results.  I've deleted & reinstalled Zoom (5.7.6).  I'm on Mac OS 11.5.2, so everything's up to date.   Help!
