macOS: URL won't launch Zoom anymore after latest update

I have no trouble running Zoom by entering the meeting ID, everything works just fine.

However, since I updated Zoom, I cannot join a meeting by clicking on a URL, for example a URL that is in a calendar invite. When I click on the URL I do get the pop-up asking "do you want to allow this page to open zoom.us.app?" and I click "Allow" and zoom app starts, but does NOT take me to the meeting. I can go to the meeting by copying and pasting the meeting ID (which is at the end of the URL), but it does not happen automatically anymore. I have made sure all the "Security and Privacy" settings are correct, and anyway, Zoom works fine if I enter the meeting ID manually, so the settings MUST be correct or it wouldn't work in that case.

Hope someone has a solution.

While running a zoom session, it shows a timestamp at the top right of the screen, but when we start recording, it doesn't show what is the duration of the recorded portion of the session.

 

This is extremely important in Coaching sessions or for recording videos for Training purpose. It is practically impossible for one to keep track of what exact time we started recording and how much time has elapsed while a discussion is going on.

 

Is it possible for zoom to also display the duration of the recording from the time it started? It should NOT come in the recording, but should atleast be visible along side the overall session duration.

 

This will be a super useful feature for ALL Coaches and Trainers who build video content and very much need to restrict to a particular time duration of the recording session. 

What are your thoughts guys?

I'm using a corporate account and uploaded a profile pic weeks ago. When I'm in a meeting, my profile pic may or may not show up. It's very inconsistent--I've tried joining meetings directly from an Outlook link, a Slack/Outlook integration link, and email. Sometimes it's visible, but most of the time, it isn't.

 

How do I fix this?

One-Touch Dial-in: Commas vs. Semicolons

This is a silly question.

 

I tend to connect to Zoom meetings from Outlook invitations created by people using the Outlook plugin (which I do myself).  Most or all of these meetings include one-touch dial-in strings that I use to connect through my phone for audio (I just prefer this to computer-based audio).

 

It seems random, but some of these dial-in strings use commas (timed delays) between the phone number and the meeting ID. Others use semicolons (which lead to user prompts).

 

Does anyone know why?

Our meeting was hacked recently by an intruder with obscene utterances. The intruder when deleted returned under a different name several times and the meeting had to be terminated. He used IDs which looked legitimate.

Is it possible that intruder has hacked into  legitimate partipants  or used  multiple accounts which he has set up?

Please advice what action to implement if occurs in future

Zoom can't use external audio device on iOS.

It seems impossible to use an external audio device with Zoom on iOS. All other apps like youtube or spotify use it without any problems.

Headphone sound problem (JBL TUNE500BT). The distorted sound is similar to the signal from the cosmos, a terrible squealing with gnashing.

 

1. Other applications don't have sound problems with this device

2. There are no problems with other bluetooth devices.

 

That is a conflict between zoom and the device. How can I solve the problem? Who knows?
