When I discovered the Zoom Desktop Client on my iMac was slightly out-of-date (5.16.2), I tried several times to download the latest release.  Each time, the zoomusInstallerFull.pkg.download file appears in my Downloads folder, but the download hangs right at the start with only 11 KB downloaded.

 

I have no problem downloading apps from other sites.

Hello,

While sharing my screen, black bars covering my zoom controls appear on participants' screens. That is very annoying. After a while the black bars disappear, but with a manipulation (click, scroll, etc.) they appear again. Does it depend on settings, if so which ones? Can someone help me? Thank you!

I recently began having issues with the camera on my desktop.  When I log into a Zoom meeting, I can see myself (so I know the camera works); however, other attendees cannot see me (only my name in a black box). I have checked all permissions and they are enabled. In addition, I uninstalled the app and reinstalled the latest version with no change. Is it possible that a recent update is causing this issue?

Good evening.

 

I am using the latest version of Zoom 5.17.11 (31580), on Mac OS Sonoma 14.4, with a Yeti microphone.

 

Unfortunately, today it caused me a very serious problem in the recording of a meeting in which I participated along with another speaker.

 

While the other speaker can be heard normally, the recording of my voice has a very high pitch, which makes me sound funny.

 

I was able to edit some parts of the video by lowering the pitch, but this is not a solution, as I constantly use Zoom for such meetings, which need to be recorded.

 

Is there any solution to this?

 

Thank you very much.

My Mac Zoom version is 5.17.11 (31580)

I am trying to be able to use the breakout room feature and the button is not showing up. 

 

I did activate it on my account.

I did reinstall the Zoom app. 

I checked that I use the same account on both the web and my desktop app. 

 

Still no button. 

FYI I have the PRO subscription.

 

What should I do?

Zoom meeting outlook integration (no syncing correctly)

If I'm creating a Zoom meeting from Outlook and if I add someone to the participants. Why does it show up in their meetings dashboard even if I didn't hit send? Is there a way to turn that off?

Our team uses Gong to record our calls. However, for a certain call type, our CSM teams have we require registration. We have tried adding the gong assistant to the zoom meeting on our calendars. However, gong can't use the registration link to join the call. Is there a way to get the direct link to a meeting and bypass registration for recording tools or internal presenters?
