Ever since I downloaded the new version of zoom on my new laptop (Lenovo ideapad slim 3) zoom doesn’t work properly.
first black boxes kept appearing for my students. Managed to fix the issue by changing advanced settings.
However now, students don’t see my annotations. They either completely don’t see them from the start or they appear for a second to then disappear for the rest of the meeting. The students report that they can see my cursor and that’s how they know what information I am selecting. They cant see anything I draw, circle or write.

this is really problematic for me as I am a teacher and annotating really helps with keeping the students engaged. 

the thing is, I can see everything I draw, circle or write. If it wasn’t for my students telling me, I wouldn’t even know there was an issue! 

what can I do to solve this? I tried uninstalling and installing zoom multiple times and no changes. 

are there any settings I could change, download an older version of zoom (if so, where) or something else? 

I really need to solve this as soon as possible as it’s making my classes very frustrating. 

thank you for any help!

Recording stopped

When I recorded meetings, the recording was automatically stopped (I think after 60 minutes or so) - I would like to know how I could prevent this! Any ideas? I couldn't find anything in the settings.

Thank you very much for any hint!

Notification of excessive intervention time

Hi,

 

Please add a bell on the zoom meetint screen, so I can light in Red when someone is so taking much time in the intervention? 

 

hope it helps other users.

problem with keyboard shortcuts in zoom for linux

Hello, good morning, I have a problem with zoom for linux (the ubuntu version), the problem is that when I mute the audio with the keyboard, the shortcut doesn't work, preventing me from following the zoom conference (it's a course), I have a equipment not compatible with windows 11 and I need a series of programs in which there is uncertainty as to whether they will continue to work in windows 10 after the end of support for it, so going back to windows is not an option nor do I want to do the dual boot on my computer.

please, could you tell me how to solve the problem? I imagine that zoom for ubuntu will have dependencies, what is the package that is causing the error that I am commenting on? I would like to before formatting (of course, it will have to be linux), learn about this operating system, since there are things that have to be interacted with commands in this system and I would like to use it again this way (I have experience in the command environment since I lived in the days of MS-DOS)

waiting for your news, receive a greeting

Passcode is now required when settings are set to require NO passcode?

Why are passcodes being required when I sent the invitation to participants and my settings are set to require NO passcode?

System Setup and Hardware

- MacMini M1 running Sequoia 15.2 (24C101),

- Connected by USB to,

- Zoom Livetrak L-8 running v1.12 and driver installed on Mac OS.

Fault

Livetrak L-8 functions normally as an audio interface when Zoom is closed. As soon as Zoom app is opened the interface disconnects and cannot be used, including in Zoom. As soon as Zoom is closed, the interface returns to functioning normally.

 

Restarting the Mac and reinstalling Zoom software makes no difference.

Hi there, I have zoom meeting links on my website linked to text. for example REGISTER HERE when clicked on will take you to the zoom meeting registration. All work fine. 

When I copy and paste them from the website and send them in an email (MacMail), they paste in the same format, get sent and arrive in the recipient's inbox in the same format and again all work fine. 

BUT!!! 

When my boss does the same, from Outlook, although it pastes in the the same format , the recipient receives the entire long link except that the last two characters from the link are on a different line and are not in blue or underlined. Once you click on the link, it of course takes you to a 404. I've included a screenshot of what we see. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I would really appreciate some help with this. It's driving us mad. Thank you!

So super weird issue that only has zoom as the common thread.

 

Issue: After being in a Zoom meeting for 20-30 minutes, the user's keyboard stops working. This is while in the zoom call and after leaving it. This is an ongoing issue and the user has updated zoom 3 times since the issue occurred and it's still present. User is completely up to date with all OS, app, and driver updates.

 

What I've tried:

• Restarting the computer

• Updating Windows 10

• Upgrading to Windows 11

• Updating all available drivers

• Updating Zoom

• Uninstalling/Reinstalling Zoom

• Removing and re-adding keyboard drivers

• Complete wipe of Windows and all personal information

• Assigning a brand new laptop

• Using an external keyboard

 

Whenever it does go away, regardless of what I do, it comes back once the user joins a Zoom meeting. No idea where to go next.
