I have several meetings that use zoom to connect. This would not be a problem except that Zoom refuses to initialize my camera. No matter what I do, the camera stays off. In settings it accesses it fine but not in zoom, one post I read said to change the camera settings in Zoom to foundation, I have done this and still no results. Should I just break down and get a better web cam or is there a way to fix this one?

 

TIA

Jo

Initially, when I attempted to open the Workplace app on my Windows PC, I found that I was signed out of my Zoom account.  Repeated attempts to sign back in only yielded the message: 'Please try again later.'  Error Code: -1.  

The Zoom Workplace app on my PC has been installed and functioning properly since 2020.  This is the first time it has ever given me any issues.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Zoom app multiple times.  

I have cleared my Windows Explorer cache multiple times as well

I have even gone so far as to reinstall Windows (Windows 11 Pro, version 24H2, OS build 26100.4351).  

Using a browser, I can sign into my Zoom account on both my Windows PC and my Mac.  Additionally,  on my Mac, I can also sign in to the Zoom Workplace app.   

An article online suggested linking my Windows 365 with Zoom.  I have tried this, but my 365 account is a Personal account, and the login page the Zoom link takes me to is for a Work or School account.  Using a browser, I logged into my 365 account and then attempted to connect (an online article said it would help), but I'm still asked to sign in with a Work or School account.  

What should I try next?

I have a dedicated laptop to host Zoom meetings from that has a wired connection to gigabit speed internet.  When I check the internet speed, it is consistent with what one would expect from gigabit speed internet (~900mbps up/down).

 

Unfortunately, Zoom does not seem to care.  The bandwidth I am getting in the statistics page is ranges from 200-1500kbps (send) and a pretty solid 3000mbps (receive).  Zoom recommends a 3.8/3.0Mbps (up/down) for full HD video.  

 

Anyone know why my bandwidth would be throttled on Zoom while able to utilize gigabit speed internet on the same device?

C++ Zoom Bot Not Using Specified Display Name When Auto-Joining

Hello Zoom Community,I am building a C++ application that:Automatically joins scheduled Zoom meetings (using the Zoom C++ SDK).Acts as an in-meeting speech translator, capturing audio, translating in real time, and playing back the translated speech.... Show more

Hello Zoom Community,

I am building a C++ application that:

  1. Automatically joins scheduled Zoom meetings (using the Zoom C++ SDK).

  2. Acts as an in-meeting speech translator, capturing audio, translating in real time, and playing back the translated speech.


🛠 What I’m Trying to Do

  • Programmatically join a meeting with a pre-defined display name (e.g. “MyBotTranslator”).

  • Once joined, immediately start the translation workflow without any manual intervention.


🚨 The Problem

  • Although I pass the correct display name to the SDK’s joinMeetingWithParams call, Zoom still pops up the “Enter your name” dialog instead of using my name.

  • Because the name-entry window can’t be controlled by code, the join process never proceeds automatically.


🔍 What I’ve Tried

  • Verified the name parameter is correctly set when calling the SDK.

  • Tested both JWT and OAuth authentication flows.

  • Compared against Zoom’s C++ sample apps (which only work when you manually type a name).

  • Searched the SDK docs for flags or config options to suppress the name prompt.


🤔 Expected vs. Actual

  • Expected: Bot joins instantly with the given display name, then begins translating.

  • Actual: Zoom stops and waits for manual name entry in the UI dialog.

Resolved! How to Maintain Participant Anonymity in a Zoom Meeting

I will be hosting a meeting where the participants' identities need to be kept hidden from others so that they can attend without anyone knows they are doing so.  How can I do this with Zoom? 

 

Thank you!

Zoom name change - any impact on digital signed program files?

Hello,

 

I saw that Zoom changed its name from "Zoom Video Communications, Inc." to "Zoom Communications, Inc." around November ( https://www.zoom.com/en/blog/introducing-zoom-communications-inc/ ). 

 

On Windows, when downloading the Zoom installer (as well as checking the files from an already installed/updated Zoom workspace program), the digital signature currently says "Zoom Video Communications, Inc.", even when downloading the latest "ZoomInstallerFull.exe" (64-bit) from the Zoom download center. Will that remain the name on the signature, or will it change to "Zoom Communications, Inc."? This can have an impact on things that check the signature, such as Windows Applocker/WDAC policies.

Resolved! Auto-save chat file

Hi Team,

Just checking whether we can have the option 'Meeting chat - Auto-save' enabled which is locked by the admin?
