Last night on a zoom program about art, I was zoom hacked. We were well into the program and someone started scribbling over the slides. Then the scribbles turned into nasty words. Somehow I was able to stop it and then it happened again a few minutes later. Someone identified who had done it so I removed that person from the meeting. (It was only a first name and don't think there is anyway to tie it to an email.) I then clicked on every button on my dashboard to enable all possibilities of further interruption.
 
Wondering if anyone has a checklist of steps to ensure this does not happen? For example, only allow the host to screen share, disable white board, disable collaboration, host tools, etc. I had no idea there were so many ways for evil people to interrupt.

Resolved! user on basic vs pro

If a basic plan user starts a meeting with a paid plan member attending, then transfers hosting to the paid plan member, will the meeting be able to go longer than 40 minutes?

A button to activate Original Sound For Musicians more easily!

Hi, I'm a music teacher and I'm always struggling with my students' config of their Original Sound For Musicians. They are mostly children who struggle with the configuration and it takes a lot of time to do it and we waste class time. Some of their zoom versions don't have the option to activate Original Sound For Musicians, specially when they are on the web version, or in android, cellphones or tablet. Please, allow to activate it (OSFM) with just a button in the main interface as the mute button all the time without going into the audio settings setup, it will be a lot easier and we don't need to waste time by setting it up.

Also, we as teachers (hosts) of the meeting should have a button to ask for activation (Original Sound For Musicians) as we do to ask them to start their video or open the mic (with the button request) Please, add this configurations! It is really bad not to hear our music students in class, this is a very bad thing from Zoom. We need to hear them properly all the time!!! Please, develop a better quality sound for this video meetings for the music education sector!!

Hi, 

 

While in a zoom meeting on my macbook, when i try to mute/unmute myself using airpods call control (press once by default) it doesn't work and give me a message "Can't control mic with Airpod Pro" . Why is that? Is it a bug? 

 

The same functionality works when i join zoom from iPhone or iPad, so how we can make it work on macs also?

 

Please help this is really very useful for productivity when zoom window is buried somewhere (it could be in different desktop or under so many windows) and i need to unmute quickly 

 

Thanks

Aiman

I recently started experiencing horrible static feedback when I switch on the Orginal Sound feature. I use a MacBook Air and Rode ll mic system. Everything worked fine until a month ago, now I cannot figure out what the issue is...I've done updates, restarts, changed cables, new mics and still the horrible sound persists. 

I cannot hear it while the meeting in on, but the clients can hear the buzzing static and it's on the recording. So I'm doing a million test recordings to trouble shoot but nothing is working! 

Please, anyone, help!

Hi Everyone - I can't figure out how I lost the ability to share my iPhone and mirror it to my Zoom desktop presentations. I'm on the same Zoom version on mobile and desktop. I'm on the same internet connection as well. When I tap the mirror icon on my phone, it just doesn't find the Zoom meeting any longer. (I have selected sharing on iPhone/iPad / Airplay).
Any help, I'd be grateful!

I have an android tablet Samung A9 plus. I am trying to use web browser function to share screen in zoom meetings. When ever I start a meeting or join a meeting there is no share screen button at the bottom at all. I have not got the zoom app because you cannot create break out rooms from an app. I have tried the Web app to share screen and the share screen button isn't there either. 

Is there a web browser that share screen will work in? 

Or is the problem my device? 

If it has to be share screen or breaking out rooms then I will have to take breakout rooms but ideally I would like both if it is possible?
