I’m currently using the Zoom Basic plan to create instant meetings through API requests and display them on my website using the component view. I noticed that with both the Basic and Pro plans, I can’t host multiple meetings at the same time. If I purchase the Video SDK Pay As You Go plan, will I be able to host multiple meetings simultaneously?

Several days ago, I set up a meeting. Today, I was not shown as host and people could not get in. I rescheduled and people could get in, but was cut off at 40 minutes. I have a monthly subscription that I am paying $15.99 for. I had no problem until recently, when I bought a replacement IMAC and now things do not go well with Zoom. Suggestions?

Is it possible to customize the Meeting Summary settings so that it follows a set meeting agenda rather than its own standard template? thanks for any suggestions!
The AI Companion tools are great but we're needing to cut and paste what it captures to correctly follow our discussion. Also it doesn't seem to capture indiviudal motions and secondary votes in the discussion.

Hi there. I am trying to have a meeting over Zoom with multiple participants. I need to see everyone on screen, but I want the participants to remain anonymous to one another. Is there a way that I could see everyone (they must keep their cameras on during their time with me) but keep them from seeing one another? I need help. Please and thank you!! 🙂

What enhancement would you like implemented? Describe in as much detail as possible, providing specific use cases. In a zoom meeting with 20 staff, 10 are in breakout room A and 10 are in breakout room B. 1. If the participant is not a host or co-host in room A, they cannot see other participants status (be right back, away, muted, screen sharing ...) in room B. 2. No participants can see the full list of attendees which is the second tab in the breakout rooms modal. Who in your organization will use this functionality? Why is this request important to you, and how will it achieve your business needs? This is the closest setting I can find relating to this issue, but is specifically addressing host/co-host status, not participants.
What: 1) Allow non-hosts and non-co-hosts to see each others statuses even when in different breakout rooms. 2) Allow them to see the full participant list.
Who: All who use Zoom with more than 1 breakout room.
How will they benefit from it?
How: It let's them know if people are active before they enter the room and possibly interrupt and will also indicate if they are away from keyboard if status is set to "away" and jumping into that room with them will not get their attention.
Why: It better enables Zoom to provide remote work coordination that is more similar to an in office experience with conference rooms and offices.

Has anyone ever encountered this problem? I recorded a meeting to the cloud, just as I do regularly. My meeting history confirmed that specific meeting was indeed recorded to the cloud. It was taking an extra long time to convert and become available, so I contacted zoom tech support. I am working on a 13" MacBook Pro, using Zoom Workplace Version: 6.3.11 (50104). When tech support responded to my query, they said: "We have looked into the meeting logs of the provided meeting ID, upon investigation, we noticed that the recording is already permanently deleted." WHAT. I am extremely frustrated.
I did not take this action, and the file was never made available to me. It's not in my trash folder, so there is no recovering it.

I recently downgraded my Zoom plan from Zoom Pro to Zoom Basic Plus and had a frustrating experience when my meeting abruptly ended after 40 minutes. I couldn't find any clear instructions on Zoom’s website, there was no way to contact support, and I couldn't locate any helpful posts on the topic. Today, while hosting a meeting, I figured out how to extend the meeting time on my own and would like to share the method. 1. There is a common misconception that the extension button appears as soon as the meeting starts. This is incorrect. In my case, the button only became active about 20 minutes into the meeting.
2. The extension button appears at the top right corner of the Zoom meeting window. It is located just to the left of the buttons used to maximize or close the window.
3. The extension button is not visible unless you move your mouse to that location.
I hope this information is helpful to other Zoom Basic Plus users. For reference, I am using Microsoft Windows on a desktop computer.

I am the meeting host. Sometimes when my meeting partner shares their screen, I am able to write on it with the annotation tools, but other times that option seems to be missing. What's going on?
