Used Zoom successfully to join a meeting until last week when Message came up saying "Waiting for Host to Start Meeting". Confirmed Host had started meeting,  set their Meeting Invitation so Participants could join without waiting for Host and that others had joined using laptops. On advice, I deleted and reinstalled Zoom (For Mac Users with Apple Silicone Chip) and still no luck - same message appears. Help Please!

I just finished attended a Zoom meeting for an online lecture from my laptop. I notice when the admin (teacher) pressed the "arrow" of the annotation to start explaining something, the shared screen will be dim automatically itself. I saw something "light dim" appeared, but sadly it does not show up on my recorded screen by Xbox as I checked back. My white chatbox at the side was not dim. My laptop screen was also not dim. However, I was told that it was my laptop's problem that it was low in battery. In fact, my laptop was charging. I didn't unplug the socket. Surprisingly, another viewer said could see the shared screen from the admin. This has happened twice, but I didn't manage to pay attention to it previously for the first one, because it was dim shortly, and then brightened quickly. May I know how to resolve the problem? Me as viewer can use chatbox to communicate with the admin only. Thank you.

(I have no idea which "Location" to post this because, unfathomably, none of the categories clearly indicate tech support for a problem with the Zoom app!)

This started suddenly with some Zoom update some months ago, and I can't believe people haven't been screaming bloody murder about it, and that Zoom has let it go on for so long!... Zoom conferences have always been treated as a phone call instead of straight multimedia audio, perhaps for Bluetooth reasons or something — I don't know, and the proximity sensor is supposed to blank the screen during a phone call when the phone is placed against one's ear, but for years the Zoom app always properly overrode that. But now whenever we move our hand across the top of the screen, it goes blank, and we can't see or adjust our controls. Grrrr!... How is it possible that an update hasn't promptly been deployed to restore the long-standing disregard of the the proximity sensor?

I am taking classes with a teacher in Vietnam over zoom. (Im in USA)The problem is he can't see or hear me when I use my laptop connected to Wi-Fi, he has no problem when I used my phone seeing or hearing me. I could see him and hear him fine on my desktop. 

I had my brother create a meeting over 5G and I joined his meeting from my desktop, he could see and hear me just fine.

Has anyone had issues with people in other countries not being able see or hear them when connected via wifi?

I'm seriously confused and a bit mad by all the efforts I've made to try and get my desktop to work the past few days. The first class he stuck around till I switched to my phone. My class today he cancelled and refunded after 13 minutes of technical difficulties.

Hi,

I am running version Version: 5.12.9 (367) in Linux.

When I go to Settings > Audio, I am not seeing the feature for Sound Quality for musicians as I have seen in the latest version for Mac OS or Windows.

Is somewhere else?  

Or will be included in a future release?

Thanks

I was recording a Masterclass and was sharing my screen.  Every once in awhile I would pause the video to look at my notes and when I unpaused the video and kept going everything seemed fine.  But when I went back and watched, every time I paused the video...a black screen was inserted for a second until I got started again.  Is there something in the settings that is causing this or is it something that happens when screen sharing and pausing a video?  Thanks for your help.

We are a small church that has been having "hybrid" church services via Zoom for the last year.  Everything was good until we replaced our laptop, and now any time more than one person speaks together (as in group prayers), or there is music in the church, the folks on Zoom just hear silence.  We have tried using the "original sound" feature, but it doesn't help. 

Our previous laptop ran Windows 10, and our new one has Windows 11.  We use an external camera with mic (Spedal 920PRO).

We also experienced a problem wherein the audio was delayed by 10 or 15 seconds, both with someone speaking on Zoom being heard in the church, and the audio in the church being heard on Zoom.  This stopped when we switched the audio input from the mic on the external camera to the laptop mic.  The video did not have a delay, and it wasn't choppy like when the internet freezes.  (This also since we started using the Windows 11 machine.)
