Hello, my zoom has updated and it has changed a lot of the features I found very useful. When I share PDFs and photos my pen often doesn’t appear. I have turned on and off which helps it to appear for a short time. I also used to be able to see the people on call whilst sharing photos and pdfs but now I can only see myself. The zoom call also makes the screen smaller when clicking on participants which before it didn’t used to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I need to create a template that retains 76 alternate hosts. Is there any way to do this? Templates don't seem to retain the most important meeting elements, like alternate hosts or recurring schedules.
Thank you

Needing help as we have had a couple of meetings where people have been doing inappropriate behaviours whilst nude.
Is there a way of instantly blocking this please?
Any suggestions?
Not sure why Zoom cripples powerful tablets I believe even the iPad Pro has similar issues. Now my S9 ultra is more powerful processor-wise than my MacBook Pro and yet if I screen-share my camera shuts off! Zoom should at least give us the option to override this in the app settings! Also if you use the chat feature the chat screen takes up the whole screen why not open in pop-up mode or to the side like a desktop client especially if using in DEX mode which is basically a laptop

I recently updated Zoom (on a Macbook pro) and have tested the multi speaker view function which initially looked great with 2 speakers at the top of the screen in a large window (this is adjustable which is also really good) and other participants at the bottom, so everyone can see everyone else. But for some reason the number of speakers above the line keeps changing from 2 to 3 and somethimes 4 even though only one person was talking. Is there a way to lock the top half of the screen to only show the active speaker or maybe 2 speakers. I know I can select 'active speaker' view only, but it's a much better layout and more interactive with the new multi speaker view if there was to option to limit the 'above the line' speakers to 1 or 2. And a final thing is that the speaker can't see themselves promoted to the active speaker at the top half of the screen, so when I speak my window stays down the bottom in the group of non speakers which looks a bit strange in the recording.

Cuando utilizo zoom en mi tablet Lenovo, al compartir la pantalla se deshabilita la cámara y queda apagada en medio de la reunion. Que puedo hacer para que está este activa mientras se comparte la pantalla.
Hello: I have a number of Zoom Meetings (and Webinars) already created/scheduled. Ever since the new Survey & Polls upgrade, whenever I create polling questions in one of the meetings, the polling questions are populating in ALL of the meetings and webinars I've already created. How do I stop this from happening? Each meeting/webinar needs to have a unique set of polling questions. I don't know why this is happening where I add a polling question to one of the meetings, it's showing up in all of the meetings. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

hello all! We have a main OWNER zoom account, using a generic email, which is currently licenced. OWNER - LICENCED would the sub accounts have the same limitations as a basic account if we did? OWNER - BASIC i hope that makes sense - thanks for your help!
we're a small company and just started investigating user roles within zoom
we'd like to add 2 sub users - with their named zoom accounts, each with a business licence e.g.
---sub user 01 - LICENSED
---sub user 02 - LICENSED
my question then, is do we need to keep the a licence for the main account, or can we switch it to basic? (no point paying for a license if its not needed!)
or would they not be affected? e.g.
---sub user 01 - LICENSED
---sub user 02 - LICENSED
