Hi! Practical question for a Zoom call with around 500 people in. 

We use a countdown timer that I spotlight for the 10-minute countdown. When the countdown ends, I need to remove the spotlight for the already spotlighted keynote speaker to be up on screen alone. 

As the countdown ends, people are still waiting to be admitted from the waiting room, so the participants' list jumps around constantly, even when popped out.

Is there a way to keep the timer where I need it so I can remove the spotlight? Or am missing something really simple? 

Thanks so much! I really need to get this figured out...

Hi,

I have an issue with the keyboard when screensharing. When I share my screen the other person can draw using the pencil but can't type text, it's as if their keyboard is locked (it even makes that sound) whereas I can annotate just fine. However the keyboard isn't really locked, they can use it to navigate between slides on a powerpoint for example.

The reverse is true : when the other person share their screen I'm unable to type text but can drap on it. The keyboard works in the chat and when using the whiteboard, I only get this issue when screen sharing.

Has anyone elle ever had this problem? I'm using Windows on my computer.

I have had an issue for several months that I am unable to resolve with any random helpdesk.

My video on laptop was working automatically in meetings that I hosted. That suddenly stopped working and I only have the gray screen with the 'x' in the video.

If I host a meeting on my phone it works fine. If I join a meeting someone else is hosting it works fine.

I have checked ALL of the settings recommended while on the laptop and there are no settings that should turn the video off.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app on my laptop multiple times with no resolve.

The video works fine in other apps and again when I host on my phone it works fine.

I am not sure what else to try or where else to get assistance. If I can't host a meeting and use my video on the laptop I will have to choose another type of meeting application.

This is extremely frustrating to pay for something that I can't use fully.

Any ideas?

Hi, 

I'd like to organize meetings where people I have in my encloses facebookgroup can join directly and outsiders first need to fill out the registrationform. Would that be a possibility and if so, how do I set this up? Right now, if I share the direct link, people still need to fill out the registrationform. 

Thanks, 
Kirsten
