Is it possible to share the desktop screen while using the whiteboard?

Basically, I would like to have members write freely by hand on a whiteboard while looking at documents on the desktop screen, etc. Please let me know if there is a way to do so.

Can anyone help me with Whiteboard Collaboration? I want to use Zoom whiteboard to teach my online lessons but I cannot work out how to give participants 'edit' access. I've tried by opening the whiteboard in the meeting and checking the 'allow users to collaborate' box but the participant either gets an error message or the whiteboard opens as view only. It's really frustrating as I assume that collaboration is the whole point of the whiteboard?! I'd like my students to be able to write onto it. When I go into my settings the 'whiteboard sharing default' has the access level set to 'viewer' with 'commenter' and 'editor' greyed out. Please help me!!!!Screenshot 2023-10-01 at 15.40.46.png

Whiteboard use

I have a group of nine on Zoom. We use the Whiteboard each week; all of sudden they cannot type on the board, just me as I am the originator. Any suggestions?

My annotations disappear when I write, draw or click somewhere on the screen

Hello! I updated Zoom a couple of days ago. Since then, my annotations have started to fail. While I am screen sharing and using the annotate tools, they disappear for a few seconds while I add text boxes, draw lines, use highlighters or shapes, click on tabs, and practically do anything that requires clicking or moving the cursor. It's really annoying because I use tools throughly, which means the participants can barely see what I am annotating.

 

Edit: I played around with the controls in a Zoom meeting. I discovered that pausing the shared screen is what triggers the annotations to fail. Unpausing does not solve the issue.

 

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Zoom to no avail. I have a Macbook Pro 13-inch M1 from 2020 with MacOS Monterey 12.6.1. I would appreciate any feedback or recommendations to fix this issue. Thanks in advance!

My participants cannot see the content on any of my Zoom Whiteboards. This has not happened before. 

 

Why is this? 

 

I have a Zoom Pro account. Does Zoom want me to upgrade my plan to unlimited whiteboards so that my participants can see the content on my whiteboards? 

 

Most of my whiteboards are VIEW-ONLY. Is this the reason why my participants cannot see the content of my whiteboards both non-view and view only?

Sending whiteboard and screenshots automatically to participants once the meeting ends.

Hello. I'd like to know if there's a way that participants receive automatically the files created during a meeting (screenshots and whiteboards). I thought of a workflow but any other way would work as well. I use Calendly for scheduling meetings. Show more

Hi, I'll will deliver formation to different groups that will require to access whiteboards (located on the cloud).

 

I'd like to create in advance zoom account for my futur users (to ease the access to the whiteboard). Is there a way to do so ? Can I create multiple accounts (email and password) in just a few steps ?

 

Thanks for your time, C.

I've recently tried to use the whiteboard in group sessions.  Have set up the whiteboard with several pages and headings in advance - all visible and I've been able to add info to the boards.  When participants have started to collaborate and add info to the boards, I lose all visibility of what was previously on the board and what's being added.  This is limiting me using the whiteboard as I can see nothing to facilitate discussions.  When I save/export the boards I can see the information.  I'm using Zoom Version 5.13.11 (16405).  Any ideas how to fix this?  Thanks

We tried to have a meeting in which we shared links to multiple whiteboards we created, thinking their group could access their own personal whiteboard while discussing over zoom. We were blocked from sending them to users outside of our "organization". How do we turn this off, so we can share them with external people? The buttons inside the whiteboard were greyed out. 

 

At this point, we may as well use Mural.

Whiteboard Typed Text & Photos not showing on whiteboard for recipient

When I create a new whiteboard, there are some functions that work fine on my screen but not viewable on the recipient's end.  On their end, any typed text does not show, photos do not show (show grey box 'Loading'). 

Hand drawings and PDF's load fine.  Sticky note does display but not the typed text within. 

Yet they all display perfectly fine via the web browser version. 

 

Recipient is on the latest app version on her laptop (mac). 

 

What would be the cause of this?
