Dear community,

whenever I try to open a poll during a webinar the original presentation (in my case Keynote) is closing down - doe anyone have an idea why this keeps happening?

I generally share my screen with the advanced and portion of screen option. Keynote is opened in rehearse slideshow mode. I then click on polls and when I try to launch it keynote is closing down completely. 

I have therefore given up on using polls, which is not really the perfect solution.

Thanks so much for your help!

Hello all,

An invitation:

I am running a test event using OnZoom today (Wednesday) at 12PM (noon) CST/US. It’ll just be a meeting (or rather Webinar) to exercise the ticketing and entry (free) and the OnZoom wrapping, and any differences actually in Zoom when in an OnZoom event.

The meeting (webinar) itself will be a discussion about the findings and results. Tickets are free.

Anyone is welcome to join, and to come in as a panelist - or to remain as an attendee. Entry either way is free (OnZoom can be used to charge).

To join the panel, you can either raise your Zoom hand once connected as an attendee or let me know in advance – and we can test out the panelist pre-invitation mechanism. (you can let me know here, or by DM)

The event will also be in Full-HD at 1080p. So it will be a useful way to see that quality, if you haven’t already, and to test your cameras and setups at that resolution, if you want to.

The OnZoom ticketing/joining process is somewhat similar to the new Zoom Events platform – which I have also been testing. So my OnZoom test today will be an interesting exercise for anyone who hasn’t been through Zoom Events yet, or for anyone who has and would would be interested in the comparison.

OnZoom access is limited to users located in the US only. This is a general restriction at the moment - and OnZoom is still in beta.

The event will not be recorded or streamed.

Please register ahead of time if you can.

When joining, please note that you will need to be logged into Zoom with the same account you registered with.

You should also check you are on an up-to-date version of Zoom.

Hope to see you there.

Rupert

Under the Webinar section in my web Profile, it says:

"You can host a free 30 minute webinar today on OnZoom! Contact your IT Admin to enable you to host. Learn more about how to get started here."

When I go to https://on.zoom.us and go to "Become a Host" it says:

"If you are the owner or admin of your Zoom account, go to the account’s web settings to grant your account access to become an OnZoom Host."

I am the account Owner and Admin - on a Business Account.

But where do I give myself the OnZoom Host privilege, so I can use my free 30 minute OnZoom webinar?

I do not see it under Settings or Role management.

Thank you.

During our Webinar, we had a few good questions come through our chat - sent to hosts/panelists only - we did not have time to address them, but I'd like to respond to them now, after the fact. I can't seem to find the chat again. In the recording chat file, I only have the 2 chats that were sent to everyone at the very end. The ones that engaged in the middle of the webinar are not there. Is there any other option to finding these folks? 

Every month we update the minimum version required for our webinars (which we do for public city governmental meetings). Every month right after that, we have staff and members of the council that are sent panelist invites that come in named correctly, but show up in the attendee list and have to be promoted. Anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?
