Unable to add alternate host
Hello
When I schedule a meeting I am unable to add my colleague as an alternate host. My colleague and I both have paid licenses AND are on the same account. So the error has got it completely wrong.

Hello
When I schedule a meeting I am unable to add my colleague as an alternate host. My colleague and I both have paid licenses AND are on the same account. So the error has got it completely wrong.
I would be grateful if someone can anyone help! This error message keeps popping up every time I wish to start a meeting - which I, as a host - have scheduled with a client. I have to log on manually but the system recognizes me as a "guest" and I have to wait for the host to start. How is this possible if I am the host! This has been an annoying problem for months. The problem happens only with my laptop and not with my mobile phone.

All: I have been using Zoom (5.17.11) on iPhone 6 Plus (iOS 12) for some time, now. In January/February 2025, Zoom (5.17.11) would not allow me to join meetings without upgrading the iOS Zoom App. The problem is iPhone 6 Plus is already at its latest version (iOS 12) and the AppleStore requires a later iOS version to upgrade Zoom past version 5.17.11. Any ideas if Zoom supports a backward compatibility option, for iPhone 6 Plus (iOS 12), without the ability to upgrade the iOS? I asked the Host to enable Voice Dial-in Access, but they refuse stating organizational policy. Thank you for your time and assistance. Kind Regards, Gary

Pessoal, não sei o que está errado nas configurações do meu computador ou app zoom, mas quando em uma reunião e é colocado uma música de fundo ela simplesmente não aparece para mim, apenas quando ele fala junto consigo ouvir, mas ao parar de falar não ouço nada enquanto todos os outros participantes ouvem normalmente. Alguém sabe me dizer o que posso fazer?

こんにちは。 ミーティングの表示コントロール設定についての質問です。 会議リアクションと意思表示ボタンは非表示にし、 挙手ボタンだけを参加者のミーティングに表示したいです。 ミーティングリアクション:非表示 挙手ボタン:表示 Zoomウェブポータルで、 意思表示アイコン:OFF ミーティングリアクション:OFF ツールバーに挙手を表示する:ON と設定し、以前はできましたが、 久しぶりにミーティングをスケジュールして開催いたしますと、 参加者の画面でミーティングリアクションが表示され、 その中に挙手ボタンが含まれていました。 挙手ボタンだけの表示方法を教えてください。

I was sent a meeting invitation and have been trying to open it to confirm the meeting, but the following is happening: Next page that loads says: "Sorry, you do not have the latest version of Zoom Workspace App installed. The latest version of our application will download automatically. Kindly install it to accept the meeting invite. If the download doesn't start automatically, please download manually. Join from your browser" I am using a windows 10 desktop. I have tried using chrome and edge. I have also tried using my android phone and have had the same issue across the board. Fresh installs of Zoom have been done
Manual Download
The version update download starts and when I click on join from your browser nothing happens. I open the download it runs and disappears.
I checked my zoom app and it says that it is at its most up to date version. I have uninstalled and reinstalled zoom. Restarted the computer and cleared cache. I do not have a paid account. Still when I click the link it redirects me to to page saying that I don't have the latest version. When it tries to fo the install to update it stops and says there is a more recent version already installed.

Hi - I'm sharing a PowerPoint presentation. It's fine when I start sharing the screen. However, when I click to 'slide show' (i.e. just looking at the slide) the sharing stops with the message ''screen sharing has stopped as the shared window is closed'. Any thoughts please? Thanks Alison

I recently removed fathom from zoom and now all of my virtual backgrounds are gone and I no longer have the advanced functionality to share screen and video - I would appreciate any assistance or guidance. And I can no longer logon unless I logon from the browser for workspace

I wanted to start a quick discussion about something that’s recently changed in our Zoom sessions. In the past, participants were able to interact directly with Wordwall games and other clickable activities when I gave them remote control. However, lately, this function isn’t working as expected — participants can move the mouse but can’t click or interact with the content. This change seems to have happened suddenly, and I’m not sure what caused it. I’ve double-checked that I’m giving remote control properly and that screen sharing settings are the same as before. It might be tied to a Zoom update, browser compatibility, or device-related limitations. If anyone has insight or has run into the same issue, I’d love to hear how you resolved it.
