Cloud Recordings can't be downloaded (or even viewed)

Since Zoom Support is basically non-existent (multiple hours in now with a support person basically asking me to try a different browser and no follow up), I'm here for help. I recorded an hour long video meeting and saved it to the cloud. I go to my account, and there is the meeting along with video, audio and a text file (two messages were sent in chat). 

 

I hit download and the only thing that downloads is the text. I try again and again and again. Same result. I go to a new browser, clear cookies, clear cache, sign out/sign back in. Same result. I have tried on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Chroe Mobile. Same results. I deleted the text file in hopes that it would then download the others. Same results. Tried to just solely download the audio. Same with video. Same results. 

 

When I click the downloads, nothing happens. When I click on the file or share the link, it takes me to a new page with a video player that has an X over it and it says, "The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported." 

 

Before I recorded this video, I recorded a shorter one just before it to make sure this worked. That one did. I could click on the video. I could download it. All worked fine. I used the same exact setup to make this video. 

 

My internet is not only stable, but extremely fast (250mb download, 175mb upload). I have no other issues with anything else I'm trying to do for work. Only this Zoom recording. 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Slow to join a meeting

When I join someone's Zoom room for the first time, it takes a loooong time to connect—like about 2-3 minutes. After that first time joining, Zoom joins the room in about 10 seconds. I am using the latest version of the Zoom app 6.1.11 (39163) on a 2... Show more

When I join someone's Zoom room for the first time, it takes a loooong time to connect—like about 2-3 minutes. After that first time joining, Zoom joins the room in about 10 seconds. I am using the latest version of the Zoom app 6.1.11 (39163) on a 2023 MacBook Air (Apple M2 chip), running Mac OS Sonoma 14.6.1.

 

At various times I have tried closing all open apps, restarting my computer, and restarting the Zoom app. Is there something else I can try?

 

Thanks!

I have a wired connection to the internet. I do not use wifi and do not want to.  I am experiencing "Your Internet Connection is Unstable" too constantly. I have made sure to have as little running in the background as possible. As well, I usually have from 1 to 25 additional people on at the same time as me during some of the meetings. I need help because connecting online is critical for my business and this issue is causing a loss of revenue.

Hello Hive Mind!

 

I had an idea and I'm not sure if it's even possible. I have a conference for which we will be using PowerPoint and Zoom. I thought it would be convenient to just embed a Zoom window inside one of the PowerPoint slides to make life easier. This way we're not bouncing between the PowerPoint and the Zoom. Is this within the realm of possibility ?

 

Thanks so much!

Hi everyone, I've recently run into issues on playing back  a Zoom recording. In the Zoom recording folder, there is an xcode_error log which I have not seen before. 

 

The first half of the playback is fine, up until a certain period. The playback issues come in 2 stages:

  1. Video freezing/ stutter, audio remains
  2. Video freezing/ stutter, then audio replaying too quickly (at least x2 speed)

During the last minute of the playback, things return to normal.

 

The xcode log contains the following:

These seem to correlate with the timestamp within the video where the playback issues are.

 

Has anyone encountered this before and found a solution? Thanks!

Zoom does not detect my headset (neither as a microphone or as a speaker) and I cannot use any headset.

Apparently it might be related to the Intel Smart Sound Technology for USB Audio but I can't solve the issue.

My Zoom had always worked fine with all sorts of headsets until recently (and I haven't changed anything in my PC or Zoom settings).

Please help, I use Zoom on a daily basis for conference and now I can't!
