I'm running MacOS Monterey. Several times in the last few weeks, I've noticed the orange dot indicating the microphone is being used by an app, and I click on the Control Center and see that Zoom is accessing the microphone. I'm not in a meeting and ... Show more

I'm running MacOS Monterey. Several times in the last few weeks, I've noticed the orange dot indicating the microphone is being used by an app, and I click on the Control Center and see that Zoom is accessing the microphone. I'm not in a meeting and simply have the Zoom app open. Why would Zoom be accessing the microphone when I'm not in a meeting?

Background

At one point, I set a background to purple, and now I can't get rid of it even when I hit no background. What do I do?

Hi, yesterday I accidentally clicked on a new link in windows start-up that immediately uninstalled Zoom. When I reinstalled all my history/contacts was gone: is there a way to regain them please? Thanks.

We are using a BlackWeb presentation remote, which works with powerpoint apps and desktop versions when zoom is not open. But whenever we start or join a meeting, it no longer works. The only button which does work is the escape button. We've tried wiping zoom off the computer and reinstalling the newest version, but that hasn't worked for us.

As the host of a meeting, I have a need to track the time that an individual has their camera switched on.  In the participants pane, it shows when a participant is muted, when they have their camera on, when they are screen sharing, etc. However, it is displayed as an icon.  I need a report of how long the person had their camera on (or off) for the entire session.  The reason for this comes down to compliance.  Being on-camera is mandatory for the meetings I host.  Tracking in the main session is not too difficult.  However, when the participants go to breakout rooms, it is much more difficult to track.  A field added to the Active Hosts > Participants report would do the trick.  Or, if there are any plugins that can track on-camera time for each participant, that would be grand.
