Lost the ability to input letters into the join bar

Hi everyone,

I just lost the ability to type letters into the join meeting space. I am using zoom for chromebook PWA. I restarted my computer. I installed and uninstalled the app. I don't know what else to try.

Thank you

My wife needs a new computer. We spend an enormous amount of time using Zoom for meetings, gathering, and teaching. Are there any specific features I should add to this new computer that will allow for a greater experience with Zoom, like graphics card, memory, specific processors, multiple processors, etc.?

 

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Neil

Just tonight an annoying bug reared its ugly head as I chaired a zoom meeting.  when I click the three dots next to a meeting participant's picture to unmute them zoom turns full screen on and off instead.  The simple act of unmuting someone has become a pain in the butt.   I much prefer zoom without this.

the meeting can only accommodate 500 participants, (my plan maximum capacity),  is there any setting to prevent the invited participants not to share the links to others? 

I have made a trial and found that the sharing link person is admitted into the waiting room for approval, any setting can prohibit them proceed after opening the sharing link?

Resolved! Upgrading Zoom account

If my Zoom account is currently basic, but it gets attached to a license at my institution, does that change the meeting links for meetings I already scheduled? (Context: I am hosting a conference and they're attaching my Zoom to one of their ten lic... Show more

If my Zoom account is currently basic, but it gets attached to a license at my institution, does that change the meeting links for meetings I already scheduled? (Context: I am hosting a conference and they're attaching my Zoom to one of their ten licenses just for the day. I have to get the meeting links made a few days in advance. Will they still work?)

Green box appears around a participant that was muted by host

Does any one know if this is a toggleable setting for this feature, or does anyone know why this happens in the first place? 

The issue: I host meetings pretty regularly and one of the features that I use very regularly is muting people when they don't realize that they aren't muted (especially when a speaker is talking). Every time I mute a participant, however, they are briefly spotlighted by that green box and they replace the speaker view (even if the now muted participant wasn't making any noise on their screen beforehand.) This can be distracting for everyone else paying attention to the person who actually was speaking because they are replaced for a few seconds by a random screen that was muted.

 

Is there a solution or setting for this yet??? Will there be a solution or setting in the future??? Let me know if anyone else has experienced this issue. I have not seen a post explaining this problem in the community as of yet.

Account menu on Ubuntu 22.04 doesn't position right

On a Dell Latitude E6230, running Zoom 5.11.10 (4400) on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with Wayland, the account/program menu (as opposed to the settings menu) insists on opening upwards of the button on screen, and not within the bounds of the screen. Eg. If I... Show more

On a Dell Latitude E6230, running Zoom 5.11.10 (4400) on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS with Wayland, the account/program menu (as opposed to the settings menu) insists on opening upwards of the button on screen, and not within the bounds of the screen.

 

Eg. If I have the Zoom window maximised, and I click on the program/profile menu in the top right of Zoom window, I only see the bottom couple of rows

 

If I move the window, so the top edge of Zoom is at the bottom of my screen, then I can view the profile/program menu.

 

Expected behaviour is that Zoom would recognise available display area (1366x768) and work within that, rather than having to drag program window down.

rights

My teacher recorded me and now won't let me see the video.    Can he legally do that ?   He says he can show it to who he wants to because he started the session but i am not even allowed to see it.    Can that be right ?
