Files suddenly started downloading as TMPs and I can't open or convert them

I hope I posted this in the right space.

 

The last couple of days, I've had trouble downloading my recordings. 

 

The "save as" window doesn't appear so I can't rename the file(s) and assign them to a drive I want them to be saved in. 

They automatically default to saving in the Downloads file and get saved as TMP files. 

 

I then can't open them.

What the heck?

Any ideas how I can fix this or how I can download these recordings? I've got clients waiting to get access to them.

 

They're pretty long recordings (60 minutes and up) but nothing longer than I normally record. 

 

Thanks for whatever help you can give me.

I have a Windows PC with a SSD as well as a regular drive. I'm running Windows 10 and using Chrome.

Resolved! How to create simulive webinar with video not in zoom

As part of our evaluation of possibly switching to zoom from gotowebinar, we recently held a 4+ hour long webinar on zoom.  The webinar went well and we want to use the recording for simulive events.  

 

The problem is that the video needed minor editing.  After downloading the file and making the minor edits, we attempted to upload the new file back to zoom. Can't be done because the file is (of course) larger than the 50MB limit.

 

If there's no method to do what we're trying here, to use edited videos of our events, that alone is likely enough for us to drop zoom.

I see the ability to download reports post-webinar for each of the different categories of data (attendees, chat, etc). I need all of this and will end up putting them into a spreadsheet on separate tabs- is there one master report you can download for an event vs needing to download each of these as separate files?

Our nonprofit is hosting a webinar on Monday and multiple people on our team cannot figure out how to assign someone to type manual captions. We are a nonprofit for individuals with disabilities so this is vital.

 

We've followed the steps under "How to start manual captioning" but Host controls in step 3 is not there. The "In Meeting (Advanced)" settings have both manual and automated captioning enabled.. we also tried turning automated captioning off, but Host controls AND Enable manual captioner are nowhere to be found during webinars OR meetings.

Rescheduling webinars - does the link change?

Hi there! 

 

When I reschedule a Zoom webinar for a different time and date, will the link to access the Zoom webinar change as well? If yes, is there an option to prevent this from happening? 

 

Thanks

Registrant Lists for Webinars

When I set up a webinar that requires registration, and I go to the list of registrants under Webinars>Manage Attendees, and ask to edit the registrants list, it always used to show up in reverse chronological order, i.e. the MOST recent registration was at the top of screen 1, which is very convenient.

 

Now, for some reason, it is doing the opposite and showing them with the earliest registrations on the first screen and the most recent ones relegated to the end, which, for a large webinar is many screenfuls away.

 

I did not knowingly change any setting to reverse the order, and I cannot find any setting related to this. Has the default changed? Can I change it back so that the most recent registrations are on the first screen?

Permanently Change the Host of a Recurring Webinar

We have a recurring webinar, but the host is leaving the company. We need to re-assign the host to a new person. We want to keep the link and ID the same. How can we change the host and retain the rest?

Upon successful registration to a webinar or meeting, Zoom sends a Registration confirmation email to the user with the required details. Can this email be sent as a calendar event that the user can either accept or reject upon receipt?

 

Currently, to add that event to the calendar, the user has to open the email and then manually add it to their calendar.

 

Do we have any customization change from email to calendar event in Zoom, which will enable them to drop on the user’s calendar directly?

Zoom webinar breakouts within Events hub

I do not see a possibility to create breakout rooms within Zoom Webinars (Events pay-per-attendee, multi-day event), but do have them in a meeting. Is it not possible at all? or is there a workaround?

Hello,
I'm using Zoom Sessions and I'd like to import my speakers into a session via a CSV file.
I've been doing this for a long time on Zoom Webinar, but here, I can't import my CSV file (which conforms to the downloadable template and is not UTF-8 encoded, as I've seen that this can cause problems). The file contains 5 or 6 names and e-mail addresses and is 320 bytes long... but I get the message “this file exceeds the maximum size limit”.
I'm using Firefox, all my browser extensions are disconnected for the Zoom site and events.zoom.us
I don't understand. Have you ever had this problem, and what's the best way to solve it?
