View Only Whiteboards but I created them

I have multiple whiteboards that I've created. There are now a number of them that say View Only and I cannot make any edits to them, even though I created them. I have searched and cannot find any way to fix this. I need to be able to access and edi... Show more

I have multiple whiteboards that I've created. There are now a number of them that say View Only and I cannot make any edits to them, even though I created them. I have searched and cannot find any way to fix this. I need to be able to access and edit these whiteboards. I use them with clients. I have some that still allow me to edit. I don't know why some do and some don't. Thank you.

Watch a clip or use a link placed into a whiteboard.

How do I allow external users, who are not members of a project, to watch a clip or use a link placed into a whiteboard without giving the external user editing permissions?

I'm using 5.17.5 on my iPad Pro OS 17.2 (21C62)

 

I see on the release notes (https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0073923) that "Users have the option to switch back to the classic Whiteboard via their meeting settings. Under In Meeting (Basic) settings, users can click the Use Whiteboard by default if available toggle to seamlessly revert back to the classic Whiteboard in their next meeting."

 

I'm not seeing this anywhere. Suggestions?

Questions about buying free zoom whiteboard plan

Can I buy the whiteboard plan for $2.49 a month while I am on the basic free tier plan so that I can only use the whiteboard feature and create more than 3 boards?

 

While I was trying to buy, it was asking me for number of licenses. What does number of licenses mean?

 

My expectation is that if I buy a license, then I should be able to free create how many ever boards I want, share them with other individuals and they should be able to edit those boards. Is that possible under the $2.49 whiteboard plan?

Resolved! Zoom whiteboard and Powerpoint

I have a Powerpoint that I present in meetings. I've created a whiteboard as an interactive part of the presentation. Can I insert the whiteboard into the Powerpoint and have it remain interactive and functional? As it is not, I have to stop sharing the Powerpoint, share the whiteboard, stop sharing the whiteboard and start sharing the Powerpoint--at which point it goes back to the beginning. It's really a clunky process while you're live. I see that there is an iframe code for the whiteboard but I can't see how to insert the code on a Powerpoint slide. Any suggestions?

Resolved! Sharing whiteboards in breakout rooms

I have set up a number of whiteboards (have purchased the whiteboard add on license) and want to share the whiteboards in separate break out rooms. I want the groups to edit the whiteboards in the breakout rooms and bring them back to the main group.

I have not been able to find out how I can share the whiteboards with the breakout groups, I am unable to share the link in the chat as the main chat is wiped when they go into break outs. If I send it as a broadcast message they can't click on the link.

 

Even if I make it one whiteboard to share across all groups I can't not share it to the breakout rooms like you can with a shared screen.

 

I have reviewed all similar questions in the community and have found no solution, I have done the training with no solution to this problem shown. Please advise.

I use a Lenovo Ideapad computer, have the latest version of Zoom, and use the whiteboard for educational purposes. Every time I insert a video into the whiteboard, it doesn't allow playback; I have to stop sharing the whiteboard, go to YouTube, show the video, and then go back to sharing the whiteboard. Why does this happen?

Hi all, this is my first post on here and hoping you experts in the room can help.

 

I'm setting up Whiteboards in advance for facilitation during meetings.  When I share it, the images resize and move and it doesn't stay how I set it up so have to spend time moving it.  

 

Is there anyway to avoid this happening?

 

Thanks in advance 🙂
