Resolved! Stop Zoom from launching on logging into macOS account

Zoom 6.4.12

macOS 15.5

 

In a recent upgrade Zoom has resumed its normal bad behavior by launching on macOS login. I do not want this for myself for my 60 coworkers. Zoom should only run when the user wants it to run. I do not see any of the normal ways to have it not run on its own. I assume if I remove the LaunchAgent it will just create it again. I thought that Zoom was over breaking macOS conventions and sticking its nose where not wanted.

 

I've checked macOS user launch settings, the icon in the Dock, and settings inside of Zoom Workplace. When I see this sort of behavior there is no way in heck that I would consider buying a Zoom product, such as a Zoom phone system.

 

Hopefully there is a simple solution and I'm just overreacting. But while I at it how do I remove the AI Companion ad from Zoom Workplace window?

Hi, everyone!

I have a zoom file that I've  been trying to convert into a MP4 or MP3 format.
It didn't start to convert automatically, so I've tried the zTscoder.exe strategy but it din't work.
I also tried to upload it in my YouTube account (to then convert it) but the video was unable to process.

 

Do you guys have any other strategy, please??

* I've updated my Zoom also.

Video freezes, then zoom freezes, then unable to re-enter meeting

Hi all, 

I can have a zoom meeting on for a decent length of time, then suddenly my personal video freezes, then after a minute or 2, zoom goes 'grey' , blue circle of death comes on,  and can't control the app in any way, can't minimize even. Must use Task manager to exit meeting and close the zoom app, then when you re-open zoom all Blue Buttons are greyed out, and you can't join back into your meeting. I have tried to force stop and still can't 'join a meeting' which causes me to have to restart my computer and log back into everything, often missing vital meeting info. Plus having to do an emergency restart has caused me to lose important data .   I am not even getting unstable internet warnings or anything prior. I also have a UPS hooked up just in case of power bumps and have never lost internet due to power failure since.  I have uninstalled the app, and reinstalled / updated to no avail.  Naturally, These are major issues when trying to work.  Any help is greatly appreciated.    I'm signed in under my personal basic account, and joining a company meeting ( paid account for the host)  in case that means anything.   I have been working on the same computer for months and only recently experiencing this issue so wondering if its Update related. Any help is greatly appreciated.   Thank you in advance

Hi there,

 

My team hosted an event yesterday (30th of April 2022) for nearly 400 people with the Business Account.
We were a team of 24 people, 20 of them were language interpreters.

Here are the things we had done before the event:

  • made sure that the translators joined from their laptop/pc/Mac
  • translators updated to the latest version of the Zoom Desktop client
  • translators joined the meeting with the e-mail address they created their Zoom account with.
  • the language interpretation option of the Zoom account with the business license was turned on with the 10 needed languages
  • all interpreters were preassigned and received an e-mail 

At the start of the event, I made sure that every translator have arrived before I clicked the blue 'start' button of the interpretation. However! When a translator dropped due to the internet issue I can not seem to reassign the interpretor again. Yes I can click on 'add interpreter' and try to do it manually but then the button with 'update' turns grey and I can not click on it. One hack during the morning event seemed to be to pass the host right to 2 to 3 people and then the 'update' turns back blue again for me to click on.

It was an event of 2x three hours with a break in-between. 
This meant that some of the interpreters left the main room for the break.
When they came back to the main room in the afternoon the host no longer can assign them anymore. The 'update' button is grey. This is what I have tried while the 400 people were waiting:

 

  • End (red button) the interpretaion and start again with the same list. Update remains grey
  • Deleted all interpreters in the list and start all over again by assigning 20 interpreters manually. Update remains grey
  • Pass the host right to 2 other co-hosts and back to me. Same
  • Ask all the participants to leave the meeting by ending the meeting. Restart the meeting again as host (signed in on the Zoom account). Then manually add 1 interpreter one by one, then click on update. Worked for 3 rounds (so 3 interpreters), then the update button became grey again
  • Passed the host right again, end the interpretation, deleted all preassigned interpreters, then added the interpreters one by one manually

I am pretty sure there must be a better way of dealing with this.
To learn from this experience, what am I overlooking? What have I missed which will help us to have a better smoother event next time?

So, this is the issue. Number one technical support is trash so I will have to look for another platform than zoom because this is ridiculous. If anyone does live streams especially at church maybe you will be able to help. We are trying to fix this audio issue where no matter what mic we use, the audio will distort and become inaudible when the church service starts going. Mainly during praise and worship when the combination of the music and the singers are going. We are trying to find a solution to stop the audio problem but every troubleshoot we have tried has failed. If any of you know a solution to have reliable audio quality please let me know. Again, the audio normally has issues once things start to get louder or even if someone shouts into the mic. Again any help would be great and thank you for your time.

How to STOP notification that host "is talking" when host has hidden self view

During a recent upgrade, I noticed that the notification "James is talking" (I am james) pops up in every zoom meeting when I "hide self view" and then begin to talk during the meeting.  This is INCREDIBLY distracting and makes me SELF-CONSCIOUS  and takes me out of the meeting.  In past versions of zoom (Two updates ago), this only used to show up when OTHER non-video participants spoke, but NOT the host.  This is AS DISTRACTING as having the green square highlighted on me while speaking, which is intolerable.  Is there a setting to make this go away?

Version: 6.4.6 (53970)

 

I host a meeting weekly.

 

The meeting is established as a recurring meeting. 

 

Each week, I send an e mail to potential participants to invite them to the meeting.

 

I copy the meeting link from the zoom software and paste this into the e mail. 

 

For the past two weeks, I have started the meeting from the zoom software. 

 

The participants click the e mail link and get a message that the host is currently in another meeting.

 

I do not get anyone join me in the meeting.

 

The workaround is that I close the meeting I have started from the zoom software and click the link from the sent e mail.

 

The meeting starts and everyone joins. 

 

The meeting ID in the zoom software is the same as the meeting ID in the email. The e mail meeting invite is copied and pasted from the zoom software.

 

What am I doing wrong and what to I need to do to put it right?
