idiot guide to using zoom

[Adanac]

Last Nov I was invited by email to a weekly zoom meeting.

Every week I would go to my email, go to my friends letter and click a link and I would get to the zoom meeting.

I thought I knew what I was doing.  I thought I knew how to zoom.

Today I wanted to go to a different zoom meeting or webinar I don't know which.

I went to a website (I was late) I Pre-registered for the meeting 

I got a  date, time, web ID and password

I tried to go to it but it did not work

I created a zoom account too but didn't know what to do.

The tutorials are too much information and too confusing.

I have been invited to another zoom meeting or webinar tomorrow  (it is just people talking)

I would like to know how to get in.

Tomorrows zoom is from an email it gave me this information:

http//:

Meeting ID

Passcode

I am hoping I can just go to my email and click the link, would this work?

Or do I have to go to my zoom account?  What do I do when I'm in my zoom account to get where I want to go?

I hope, if I get a reply I can find it as I don't really know where I am right now and how to get back a second time.

@Adanac if someone sent you a link, and you did not have to register for the meeting, just clicking on the link should get you in.  If you have to register, you will often have to sign into your account (using the email you registered with) so that the system knows it is you and you are allowed to join.

If you don't get a link, you can go to https://zoom.us, click on 'Join Meeting' in the upper right and put in the meeting number.  Once it finds the meeting, you will get prompted to enter the passcode and you should get it.
