Hi everyone,

I currently host daily Zoom meetings where I interact with various participants. As the admin, along with my partner, we manage screen sharing and microphone control, while attendees mainly join as listeners.

However, I’m facing a challenge that I’d like to resolve. Many participants do not enter the meeting with their full name, which causes issues when trying to identify them during the session. This forces me to interrupt the meeting to ask them to update their name, which takes up valuable time.

I’m looking for a solution that would require participants to enter their full name before they can join the Zoom room. Additionally, I would like to obtain a list of participants with their full names to efficiently track attendance, as it’s crucial for me to know who attends these daily meetings.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or experiences you can share to implement these functionalities in Zoom and optimize the management of my meetings.

Thank you in advance for your help!

I have 19 users with Zoom accounts and cannot seem to upgrade them.  Here are my issues:

1. Those with Version 5.15.##, or below, can no longer open their software.  Therefore, they cannot sign on and check for updates.

2.  When I go to the Zoom website, I only see "Zoom Workplace" (maybe version 6.1.6.43767?) as a download choice.  Is this the same as plain Zoom? (All current users are on Zoom 5.10.0 thru 5.17.10).

3.  If I download, and run the installer, Zoom Workplace will not open.  I still get messages that I need to be above version 5.16.6

4.  I cannot get any help from Chat, or phone calls, because I'm not "qualified" for live person support.

ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

I am on a Mac using Sonoma. My video camera works just fine with FaceTime, but when I begin a meeting in Zoom my screen shows only black. I have tried using the Video controls, deleting the program and reinstalling, etc. I am flummoxed as to how to solve this problem. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'd like to add someone as an alternate host for a Zoom Meeting.

Zoom says, "Unable to assign "[EMAIL]" as an alternative host because the user cannot be selected at this time."

Why? And, how do I add this person as an Alternative Host for Meetings?

Every single time, I have to say no, I do not want audio. I am deaf, and it is very, very annoying. Every single meeting I go to, pop up the "you want to turn on audio", every time someone spotlight me, pop up the "you want to turn on audio" and whenever I want to record the meeting, pop up the "you want to turn on the audio." NO I DO NOT WANT! We can see each other fine in sign language and I just want to be at peace without the audism.
