Webinars

Hey Folks! I'm planning a paid webinar, but many of the attendees probably won't have access to a credit card or Paypal. For example a company sending 5 employees may want to just write one cheque and send the details for people attending. If someone pays outside zoom (cash, cheque, direct bank transfer etc) is there a way for the host  to register them directly on the back end? Thanks for any help!

Hello:I was wondering if you know how to host a meeting with a translator for the hearing impaired to a virtual zoom meeting. It will be live. What things to consider to allow things to flow smoothly?I also need to do another simultaneous translation with a Spanish speaker.  How to even start?   

Hi everyone, I am planning to host an event, for around 20-100 people,  and would like them to join just as a participant, such that no one sees the number of participants, and can only chat publicly in the chat section. Do I have to use Zoom webinar for this purpose, or can I do this using Zoom Meeting? Or is there any other mode I am not aware of? Thank you for your help,Maria 

I'm the host of a webinar but I only want the panelists to be seen and recorded.  How do I ensure my photo and name is not on the recording?Thanks

I always attach a survey to my live webinars and have had some attendees say that the survey did not display when the webinar ended.  Last night, 80 of my 100 attendees completed the survey immediately following the webinar.  I have heard from at least 5 people who said it did not display. Any ideas what could cause it not to work?  Pop-up blocker settings?  Firewall settings?   Thanks.

Hello everyone, For the webinar reminder emails that are sent to attendees, we would like to have the email address be personalized. Currently, when reminders are sent to attendees, they come from Zoom at no-reply@zoom.us.  We want them to come from our general email address info@ibpa-online.org. Under "Email Settings," we already changed the "Email Contact" to our general email address, but Zoom only uses that in the initial "thank you for registering" email, not the reminder emails. Does anyone know how to change the email that the reminder emails come from? Thank you! Christopher

I am planning to host a webinar where it will be important for attendees to see their own name. (Attendees will be renamed by staff according to which group they belong in.) Is there any way to accomplish this in Zoom Webinar? We just ran a test and our attendees could not see their name or the names of other attendees.

I'm wondering if it's possible to host a Zoom webinar or meeting and then have the group watch another Zoom webinar together while they are on Zoom?    I would like to invite people to join me on Zoom and watch another Zoom webinar together. How do I do that?  

Hello, I would like to know it it is possible to organize 2 webinars at same day/hour having just 1 webinar licence. If so, after setting panelists for both of them,  can I start a webinar naming a panelist as co-host, and also start second webinar naming an other panelist as co-host, so they can start webinar by themselves? Or, can panelists start a webinar by themselves, even without organizator?

Hi, We have two Webinar links and some people may get 1st link while others get the 2nd link. We want to combine or forward the 2nd link to 1st link. Is it possible? Thanks,

I am hosting an OnZoom webinar in a few days and will do so on an iPad but having trouble figuring out how to activate the recording function. Any tips?

I have a 500 attendees webinar plan, and I'm going to set a webinar. If, in the meanwhile, I will decide to upgrade to 1000, will my webinar link remain the same, and I just need to set the new attendees number? 

Getting started with webinars, and I need help! We will be using our 3rd party scheduler for people to join our webinars, so registration will not be required. But we'd like to allow those who purchased access to the webinar the chance to rewatch the recording for about a week afterwards (preferably not longer).  A couple questions: How do I set up limited access to a webinar recording when attendees did not have to register for the webinar?  If I record a webinar to the cloud, will I also be able to download that recording into an MP3 format to use on other platforms, such as iMovie? Thanks for your help! 

I had an event that I was streaming to a Webinar, unfortunately I toggled ON the "Enable HD video for attendees" and "Always send 1080p video to attendees" when I created the webinar and for the first time ever hell broke loose.Employees watching the webinar mostly from the office, the feed was stuttering like crazy, every few minutes Zoom App would display that "Mic isn't Working" and my audio would stop. I have to mute the mic and unmute it for it to resume.Unfortunately I didnt read the feature help when i toggled it ON but why would anyone create a feature that is not adaptive? meaning if the attendee cannot handle HD1080p then just dont send him 1080P, instead Zoom was enforcing the resolution and thus chocking everyones bandwidth.Anybody face such scenario with these features?

We will have a webinar tomorrow Oct.2., when we had the rehearsal we could not turn on the video for the panelists.  Please help!

We have a webinar set up with multiple occurrences on three days one week and then three days the next week. Each day has multiple sessions, although not consecutive. It's set up with registration and attendees registering once  can attend any of the occurrences. Upon registration, an email is sent with the Zoom webinar link info so that the person should just be able to click the link and get to the webinar. We have experienced the following issues and wonder if anyone else has also and might have a solution:Some people have been successful at logging in and getting into the first session of the first day of the webinar, but after that are unable to get in. It can be the next session on that same day or the next day. Or sometimes it worked the first day, not the second, but then worked again on a day during the second week. It seems haphazard as to why they can get in sometimes and not others. And then there are some people who have no problems and can get into all of the session

Can I turn on the chat function in a webinar after I start the webinar?  I know I can enable the chat function from the settings, but if I've already started the webinar, can the chat function be enabled? Thanks!  

Good morning.  We have been using Zoom specifically since the pandemic hit.  I am being audited and need to use proof of meetings/recordings/schedules to show our communication with parents.  I am only seeing recordings since July 2021.  How do I access previous lists of Zoom Webinars?  

I have a couple questions.   I try to add an alternative host and it says "user could not be found."  What does this mean and how do I fix it so i can add someone. Also, how do you project the meeting out to Facebook live simultaneously with the meeting? Also how do you set it up so people can wave their hands for questions?  

HelloI have a Webinar configured to live stream to a 3rd party website.  I have designated an alternate host for my Webinar. I will not be available on the day of the Webinar. My questions are, the alternate host should be able to start the Webinar but:1. Would the alternate host be able to promote any attendee to a panelist?2. Would the alternate host be able to start the live stream? thanks

We've had some scenarios where it would be very helpful to allow a team member to have alternate host rights to manage Q&A and work screen sharing, but not appear on screen (no window would appear for them) as they are not actively participating as a speaker.  Is there any way to make this happen or does anyone else think this would be helpful?

Hi I have a few problems with registration in webinars.   We have a capped 100 attendee event that has pre registration. The event is full.  Maybe only 60 of those who have registered attend the live event. So 10-15 minutes into the live webinar event multiple new attendees are joining that weren't on the registration report. Is this because not all of those who had registered prior to the event going live hadn't joined?  Does zoom think that 100 logins haven't occurred? I had assumed that each registered person received a unique link that couldn't be shared. I'm wondering if links are being shared and when the individual with the shared link tries to access the webinar they are redirected to a registration page and are allowed to register as not all of the original 100 attendees have signed into the event. I'm concerned about what happens if all 100 original registrants do want to join and the link has been shared.  Any help gratefully received. 

I am looking for a way to blur portions of a shared screen during a webinar event. We will be looking at spreadsheets, etc with proprietary information that cannot be shared. 

Hi,We're about to run our first Zoom Webinar and it appears that attendees can unmute themselves?  Is this correct?   If so, is there a way to disable that ability? Thanks, DI
