Unable to Create Meetings and Crashing on Audio Settings

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble with the Zoom app on my computer. When I try to create a meeting, it doesn't show up, but the app icon suggests that I'm in a meeting. Additionally, whenever I go to the audio settings, the app crashes completely.

However, the Zoom web version in my browser works fine—I'm able to create meetings and access audio settings without any problems.

I’ve tried updating, reinstalling the app, and checking my system’s audio settings, but the issue persists. Has anyone else experienced this, or does anyone have a solution?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Resolved! delete in-meeting chat

Hello, 

 

why can't messages be deleted or moderated in in-chat meetings and webinars? It would be a great feature. Now in-chat meetings are very risky and it is often safer to disable or limit them to host and co-hosts only.

 

Thanks!

 

Federico

I have been using Zoom for months. Today the camera on my end was not working. My camera is ON and the message comes up 'Zoom can not detect camera' 

Anyone have any suggestions?

I have a large meeting that needs to have the waiting room feature turned off at a certain point to let many attendees in.  I am unable to get this to work during an active meeting without ending the meeting and restarting after the settings have been updated. 

 

I have found this statement in some automated zoom documentation:

"Yes, you can update the waiting room feature during a meeting. As the meeting host, you have the ability to enable or disable the waiting room feature while the meeting is in progress. You can also customize the waiting room title, logo, and description at an account, group, or user level. To update the waiting room feature during a meeting, you can access the waiting room settings and make the necessary changes based on your preferences."

Has anyone made this work?

 

I am aware there are settings for the waiting room in both Profile and Admin. Both of these are turned off in my current testing, but my meeting has been set to have a waiting room for the scheduled meeting. 

In the Zoom workplace dashboard it is possible to update the settings and save them, but this does not work in my case. It only works if I end the meeting and start it again which will not work for my current use case. 

Thanks for any tips.

When connect my Samsung S10e phone to my TV using a USB-C to HDMI cable, the sound normally comes thru the TV.  This works for apps like Disney+, YouTube, and any other app I've tried except for Zoom.    

 

What do I need to do to make my Zoom audio work thru the TV using an HDMI connection?

 

thanks,

Hi, my microphone volume is suddenly too low. I have a macbook pro. It's hard for all my client's to hear me. In audio settings the microphone volume is on max. However, when I test my microphone in audio settings my voice volume is much too faint.

I tested the microphone on my computer itself, it is fine. I have done the most recent update.

Please help! Thanks

I have a problem with Zoom meetings desktop app.

1)When I try to join a meeting, it loads, and a window appears asking if I want to connect the audio as always. Then I click connect using my computer audio. It just exits the whole thing by itself;
2)When I open Zoom settings, there are menus, like Video, Audio, General Settings and so on. All the other menus work but when I click on audio, the settings closes automatically;
3)I can join meetings through browser but it's uncomfortable;
4)I have tried updating and uninstalling and reinstalling.

I can't install the latest linux client (5.16.6.382) on Ubuntu 23.04.  The install seems to work until ending with this error:

 

N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/jima/ptmp/downloads/zoom_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)

 

 I tried installing using "sudo dpkg -i zoom_amd64.deb' and it seemed to succeed but the zoom client silently exits (with zero status) immediately without displaying anything.

 

Does anyone know what to do?

Resolved! Is there a way to see all zoom attendees on a recording even if they have their camera's off?
