Resolved! Menus don't work with Linux client

With the last couple of versions of the Linux Zoom desktop client, I find that some menus (including the main menu and the audio/video selection menu) don't work: they appear for a fraction of a second and then disappear again. The last version that worked is 5.17.5. Versions 5.17.10 and 5.17.11 show this problem, which makes the desktop client unusable in practice. One of the institutions that host meetings that I attend has a very strict policy on using up-to-date versions of the client, so using version 5.17.5 may not be a usable workaround for much longer.

 

I am using Gnome/Wayland on openSUSE 15.5.

 

This looks similar to a problem reported on the Fedora forums at https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/zoom-menus-dont-show/82677/1 but openSUSE 15.5 uses an older version of mutter (41.9) than that reported there.

 

For completeness I have attached zoom logs for working and non-working versions, although I can't see any significant difference between them.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this, or whether there might be a fix coming soon?

Copy and Paste

I cannot copy and paste anything from the chat, even using the Control P&V and Command P&V.  Does anyone know how to remove this setting?

For the love of God I cannot determine why - on the Zoom Desktop App - there just isn't a GIANT, OBVIOUS, LARGE button that has "Start your scheduled meeting" at the Home Screen.  Digging through calendars, having to find the meeting ID...all of that is garbage.  Simple: just a giant, huge button that says "Start your scheduled meeting."  That's it.  Why is this so difficult?

Resolved! Zoom Desktop Application Will Not Launch (Windows 10)

When installed, the Zoom desktop app (v. 5.17.0) will not launch. No desktop icon appears after installing (though the app items appear in the "Apps" list and in the "Apps" control panel). When attempting to launch, no item appears in the Windows Task Manager; the Windows "donut of eternal contemplation' appears for a few seconds; then it disappears. I have tried:

 

* Checking internet connection - It is fine

* Cleaning up all temporary and junk files

* Performing scans with virus, malware and spyware scanners

* Rebooting system

* Checking to make sure camera and microphone permission are set properly

* Emptying temporary file folders and performing disk cleanup

* Making sure device drivers are updated

* Launching installer as Administrator
* Uninstalling ALL antivirus and security software

* Closing all applications except the Zoom desktop installer

* Uninstalling and reinstalling the Zoom app from "Apps" control panel

* Using the Zoom Uninstaller to uninstall and then reinstalling the app

* Downloading the installer again, from the official website, and installing

* Uninstalling all Zoom components, rebooting and reinstalling

* Clearing browser cache and cookies

* Booting into "Safe Mode" and repeating the install process
* Checking system requirements - System exceeds requirements
* Checking if system has enough space to install Zoom - System exceeds requirements
* Verifying permission to install the Zoom app - I am an Admin

 

Under no circumstance or combination of circumstances above will the application launch. I saw a recent post suggesting that this was a problem with version 5.16.x, so I tried to find and download version 5.15.11, which worked for the post'er but could not find it on Zoom's site (though I did find infected versions on other, spurious websites, which I did NOT download or install).

 

I would be grateful for any suggestion that would help me get the Zoom Desktop app to launch and run. Thanks, in advance, for the time you spent reading this and for any suggestions you  might have.

 

It is truly amazing that, in the process of selecting locations and topics in order to create a post, there is no category whatever for installation and troubleshooting issues.

Zoom screen sharing not working on Ubuntu 24.04

I have two computers that are both running Ubuntu 24.04 with Zoom 6.4.13 (2309) installed from the .deb. On one computer I am able to share the screen, but on the other, I cannot for some unknown reason. When I select "share" at the bottom of the zoo... Show more

I have two computers that are both running Ubuntu 24.04 with Zoom 6.4.13 (2309) installed from the .deb. On one computer I am able to share the screen, but on the other, I cannot for some unknown reason. When I select "share" at the bottom of the zoom meeting window, it opens up the "Select a window or application that you want to share dialog", but when I select what I want to share and hit the "share" button at the bottom, nothing happens. The same procedure on the other computer then opens up a second system dialog asking me what screen to share and then it shares the screen, but on this computer, nothing happens.

 

What is the problem and how might I go about diagnosing it?

 

Thanks,

David

I would like to bring to your attention a matter of great significance to the Ukrainian-speaking community and users in Ukraine. Currently, Zoom offers a wide range of languages for its platform, ensuring that users from various regions can engage comfortably and effectively. However, Ukrainian is not yet one of the supported languages. The Ukrainian language is spoken by millions of people, both within Ukraine and by Ukrainian diaspora communities worldwide. The addition of Ukrainian language support in Zoom would be a valuable step toward inclusivity, accessibility, and enhanced user experience for these individuals.

 

I kindly request that Zoom consider adding Ukrainian language support to your platform. This gesture would not only be appreciated by the Ukrainian-speaking community but also align with Zoom's mission to connect people and empower them through accessible communication. I understand that implementing new language support may require time and resources, but I believe it would be a worthy investment that benefits both Zoom and its users.

 

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to a positive response and hope to see Ukrainian language support in Zoom's offerings in the near future.

This started about 2 weeks ago.  I have to run through speaker and microphone settings every meeting.  I end up back where it was set after testing.  It doesn't matter if I don't change machines or have been on another video conference program before joining Zoom.  Same machine, last meeting is Zoom and I still have to test.  Does anyone have a fix for this?

 

Thanks!

Up to 8 Zoom confidential meetings at the same time from the same Zoom link?

We are looking to host 4-8 confidential Zoom meetings at any given time (e.g., 4-8 different participants in separate Zoom rooms all at the same time) to be accessed by the same Zoom link. We investigated break-out rooms as an option, with pre-assigning and automatically assigning, with the plan being to admit one participant at a time and assign them before admitting another. A potential issue with this is human error - accidentally clicking admit twice and admitting two participants into the same main room could happen in this scenario and that will disrupt participant confidentiality. Are there other options to allow multiple different rooms in a Zoom meeting from the same Zoom link with absolute confidentiality? Or would staff NEED personalized Zoom links?
