Hello.

 

During Zoom meetings, I see a message on screen indicating my account has one follower, and I am asked whether to terminate the meeting.

 

How do I find out which accounts are following me? How do I remove account followers?

 

I am posting this question because I was unable to find this documented elsewhere. My apologies in advance if this turns out to be redundant.

 

Thank you very much.

 I am trying to create an upgrade command/script to auto update Zoom.

Are there flags I can send to "Installer.exe" or "zUpdater.exe" that will initiate the update? It's not a problem if it brings up the updater GUI, I just need a way to force an update without forcing the application to terminate.

Pre-assign attendees to breakout rooms

I wonder if there is a solution to our challenge.

We are a charity that offers support to professionals whose roles have been made redundant. We meet (via Zoom) every Monday evening. We have up to 20 new members and approx 40 existing members join our Zoom meetings. When we publish our meetings, we ask members to register to the Zoom meeting first. We therefore know by the time the meeting starts who is likely to attend.

The first part of the meeting (30 minutes) is to split attendees into 2 Breakout Rooms (one for Induction for new members and the other for Networking for existing members).

During the registration process we ask whether members are new or existing to make it easier for the Zoom Host to assign members to the correct breakout room. This process, however, can be daunting when 30-40 members join the meeting at 7pm and need to be assigned manually.

My question:

Could the information we collect during registration (email address and whether induction or networking room is required)  be used to automatically pre-assign members to their desired Breakout Room rather than doing it manually?

Thank You

Wolfgang

I am an instructor that has recorded many lectures and I store the lectures in the Zoom recording cloud.  I then share the links to each chapter recording with students enrolled in online learning.  I am required to keep track of a students hours spent in various online tools and the Zoom lectures are one of our most popular tools.  When I open the recording analytics for the recordings on the cloud I only see the viewer as "Guest."  What I need to see is the viewers email address so I know how is actually viewing each recording and for how long.  How can I change the parameter so I see the the viewers email address?   

Thank you for your help,

Debi

I'm often in a team meeting with a dozen participants. Normally after each person speaks, they go on mute. However, there appears to be a bug that is triggered by going on mute, that random blips occur, which sound like repeated audio frames from the next person to speak, until the previous person unmutes and re-mutes.

 

We're all on Mac (except one user) and are normally pretty up-to-date (centrally managed, currently all on 5.17.5 (29101) but it's been going on for ages).

 

I've not been able to find out if this is a known bug or not, as searching for this issue comes up with a lot of random unrelated problems.

I am using MacBook bro and desktop app of Zoom with latest version. Yesterday I faced a peculiar issue. While sharing a HD video (through advance sharing option), it suddenly stopped. 

 

Took the following steps however didn't resolve the issue:

 

1. Unshared the screen and shared screen (screen went black)

2. Started the video again.

 

Lastly, I quit the zoom application and started the app again and it solved the problem.

 

Question:

 

1. Is there is a limitation on length of video which can be shared using zoom share feature.

2. Is there a limitation on size of the video which can be shared using zoom share feature.

 

Thanks for help.

Installed new Zoom Workplace on my 64-bit Windows 10 Home setup. All features work accept, when joining a meeting, a dialogue box asks to Join with Computer Audio and then stalls. I have rebooted my machine and even uninstalled the Zoom App and reinstalled it....to no avail.  I don't have this problem with either Microsoft Teams or Google Meet so I guess something is amiss with the software.  Any suggestions please.

Has anyone had issues with people unable to access a zoom meeting because the link does not work?  Also, has anyone found that their recorded zoom calls do not download to their computer storage?   I have experienced multiple issues in the month of May... I hope zoom technical support or management looks at this forum.   At the Pro level, I do not have access to a live chat, or person to discuss technical issues.  This is a problem.  The bots are telling me I am not logged into my account.   Sorry for my rant.

Hello. I have a problem with joining the Zoom meeting.

I can't join Zoom because of the AI program.

When I click the 'join the Zoom' button, the AI program shows and doesn't let me in the Zoom.

My phone is Redmi Note 11T 5G. 

If anyone has had the same problem as me, I would appreciate any advice.
