I created a meeting using manually-approved registrations.  When the meeting started, many people could not join.  The link took them back to Register for the Meeting.  I could not get the actual meeting link.  I tried and wound up with a link that again took them back to Register for the Meeting.  I did not realize at the time that I could resend the link from the Manage Attendees in the Registration section.  Finally one attendee started sharing her link.  Soon we had a dozen Nancy's who had joined.

 

Any idea why the link seemed to go back to the Registration area instead of into the meeting? 

 

I learned from this that next time I should do a send the link to everyone shortly before the meeting so they have a good link near the top of their mailbox.

Dear fellow Zoom users,

 

I would like to know if any Monterey users out there have any compatibility issues with Zoom.

 

Currently, we have a 2021 MacBook Pro with Monterey v. 12.2 that seems to work seamlessly with various tests (screen-sharing, playback, audio, and video).

 

I am compelled to know what other Monterey users' experience with Zoom.

 

It would be a great help if you could respond to this post. Thank you! ( @Zoomhelp)

Hello,

I'll write in German, hopefully you can translate.

Ich habe einen neuen Computer HP Pavillon 27 mit Windows 11 gekauft. Ich bin Host eines Meetings, das mit dem Klang meiner Klangschale beginnt und endet. Dazu gibt es bei Zoom die Option Originalton, wobei Hintergrundgeräusche nicht unterdrückt werden. Auf meinem alten PC hat das sehr gut funktioniert. Mit all den dafür notwendigen Einstellungen auf dem neuen PC bleibt der Sound der Klangschale unterdrückt. Auch die Auswahl Originalton Aus/Ein li. oben während des Meetings hilft nicht.

Weiß jemand, wie ich die Klangschale hörbar machen kann?

Hello,

I am presenting a keynote presentation for a group of 20 participants tomorrow via Zoom. I included a video of myself inside the Keynote but it is lagging when I record via Zoom. So, now I'm wondering how I can show my face on Zoom while sharing my screen? I can see myself in the upper-right hand corner, but when I tested it with a friend, the participant cannot see me.

Please help! I am simply using a Zoom meeting link.

Thank you.

I recently have been having issues with Zoom meeting attendees, specifically those using their phones, having very poor sound quality. I encourage people to update their app, but not sure what to do beyond that. These people are usually not very tech savvy and have limited trouble shooting ability. The issue doesn't seem to affect those using laptops.

I want to change my user name WITHOUT signing in, on my iPad. How can I do this? I recently uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, and now I have to change my name every time. It did not used to be this way. 

I do tech support sessions by clicking on a meeting link.  My name is NOW coming up as the name of my iPad.  This is not correct.  It USED to join the meeting (without me having to sign in) and have the correct name.  Is this no longer possible??

I regularly use zoom for work and have for three years with little issue.
Generally, my boss shares his screen so I can have remote access to do our work. He would also share his computer's sound so I can hear all of the audio that we are editing.
Recently, he claims the share sound option has disappeared when he shares his screen. And that as soon as he hits the green "share screen" button, it immediately begins sharing and does not allow him to choose a screen to share or hit the checkbox to share his computer audio. I can hear him just fine, just not his computer sound. (As it is, I can only hear his computer audio as it comes out of his speakers and then back through his microphone, so the sound is very inconsistent for me and is sometimes completely silent.)
 
It's difficult for me to troubleshoot the issue for him as I cannot see his screen when he shares it, therefore I'm not entirely sure what the issue is that he's facing, other than how he's described it.
 
I'm hoping someone might have a solution for this that I can pass along to him.
