my laptop microphone used to allow others in the zoom meeting to hear me speak. a few months ago, a red triangle appeared over the mic icon and others could no longer hear me. this popped up: 'Your browser is preventing access to your microphone. Learn how to allow access to your microphone.'  i use edge and have windows 11 in s mode.

i tried my best to check what i could, i am not that tech savvy. i checked the site permissions, allowed apps to access my microphone, checked the network sound settings. i even reset my laptop to factory default settings. nothing has worked. please help. ty!

Last month the chat has changed and it is very bad when you use zoom for teaching. Before the message send to the host was displayed in the same window regardless the author and the author was indicated just before the message. Now each discussion is displayed in a separated window. This is awful when you use zoom for teaching session because the host has to switch between windows to see the answer of each student to a question. Of course it is possible for the students to send their answers to '"everybody" but at that time every body see the response of every student which is bad for teaching.

Give us the option to go back to the old chat.

Currently using Arch Linux with Wayland.  With the latest zoom installed (6.6.0), using pipewire for sharing.  The first time I try to share a screen or window, it works fine.  If I stop sharing and try to share again, it only shares a completely black window or screen.  

Immediately after I stop sharing the first time, I get the following messages in ~/.zoom/logs/zoom_stdout_stderr.log

*** pw_stream_set_active called from wrong context, check thread and locking: Operation not permitted
*** impl_ext_end_proxy called from wrong context, check thread and locking: Operation not permitted
'this->recurse > 0' failed at ../pipewire/src/pipewire/thread-loop.c:62 do_unlock()

I cannot figure out if this is a zoom problem or a pipewire problem.

Everything works fine in X11.

I have a link that I send out to potential attendees for meetings. I know that the link can't be re-used for the same meeting for the same attendee.  But my issue is that NEW attendees with their own links aren't able to use the link.  No one has been able to register since yesterday.  There are 58 registered now.  Is there something going on with the capacity allowed?  

I am currently unable to use my iPhone as a video camera with Zoom on my Mac mini. This setup was working fine until a few days ago. Now, Zoom no longer recognizes my iPhone via Continuity Camera.

I understand this may be related to Apple's Continuity Camera functionality.  Interestingly, when I connect my iPhone via USB, Zoom does recognize it—but it only accesses the front-facing (rear) camera. Ideally, I would like it to use the selfie (front-facing) camera instead.

Both my Mac mini and iPhone are updated to the latest OS versions, and I have tried restarting both devices, reconnecting them, and reinstalling Zoom, but the issue persists.  

Does anyone know what might be causing this?

For my business, I always record my webnar / zoom meeting for my records through "zoom cloud recording". And I spend a lot of money to increase my cloud storage for this purpose.

Recently (starting from Oct 2025), I notice that the big drop of qualify of zoom cloud recording. The voice in the recordings are still smooth as before, but the visual part of the recording has obvious lagging. And the hand motions in the recording are definitely not smooth. The handwritings in the recording are not smooth too. 

This bad qualify of zoom cloud recording actually affects my business already. If Zoom cannot resolve the issue, I have to switch another provide on cloud recording. Can someone from Zoom help me with this issue of cloud recording?

On Linux when other meeting members try to make annotations on my shared screen, what they draw does not line up with where they are drawing. They can be drawing a rectangle around something in the middle of the screen, and when they stop, i.e. when it shows up on the screen for everyone, it is offset to the bottom right of the screen, wayyyyy off from where they actually drew. Wayland is the future of Linux in terms of compositors, can you please update the Zoom meeting client to properly use Wayland libraries when it is installed, rather than just X.

Thanks.
