Hi everyone,

I’m using Zoom for macOS (version 6.4.6) and I found it frustrating that the bottom toolbar (with audio, video, chat, etc.) kept disappearing during meetings. I wanted a way to make it always stay visible, without having to constantly move my mouse.

If anyone else was wondering the same, I discovered there’s a setting in Preferences > General called “Always show meeting controls” — enabling that keeps the toolbar pinned at all times. It worked perfectly for me.

Still, I’d love to hear if others have additional tips, especially for screen sharing or when using multiple monitors. Thanks in advance!

I am working from a new imac and have followed all the advice i can find to turn off this feature. It all says top left, click on turn centre stage off. There is nothing in top left and i have been through every setting and menu bar, as well as searching on zoom but cannot find anything on centre stage

There is no blur background option in my pc though virtual background works and i      have updated zoom on the latest version ...,,,   There is no blur background option .i have tried by uninstalling and again installing but there is no change  .....,,,       MY SINCERE REQUEST IS PLEASE SOLVE ME PROBLEM .

As the title says; after a call Zoom automatically opens the recordings folder in Finder and I would like to turn this behavior off, I can open the folder myself if I need it. A search brought up a supposed answer but the referenced setting does not appear to exist in the latest Zoom version. Thanks for your help!

I made this request 2-3 years ago and was summarily refused. This is such an easy code fix; I was truly disturbed by Zoom's response and total failure to understand what is really going on with average users out in the world. Feel free to keep the audio setup methodology that you already have...fine...I love being forced to remember the 3 or 4 steps it takes to get to the audio controls...but please add this "easy button". Along with (1) figuring out how to properly send meeting invitations and (2) meeting hosts to manage their screens, the #1 issue I experience in my use of zoom in multiple groups (over 15) is the simple failure of attendees to mute and unmute themselves and the time wasted with the silence, the additional time to figure out how to mute / unmute, and then even more time to restate whatever they were saying. NOT EVERY USER IS AN EXPERT nor do they want to be. These folks are often embarrassed when they realize what has happened. Is that really the experience with zoom that you want them to have? Bosses and other leaders, as well as some attendees, are already clamoring to go back to in-person meetings. I'm giving you a simple change that will really help out YOUR meeting goers have a better experience. Two more things. If you can, make the button mute zoom ONLY, not the whole system. And, your current output method doesn't actually fully mute the audio. I can still hear it even when the output level in your popout window is at zero.

I am used to share audio (Spotify music) from my computer with my clients. I also use a DJImic microphone for the sessions. This usually works great, also on the recording. Since the update (discovered yesterday in my case), this has totally changed. There is a lot of 'noise', the audio sharing option has moved and doesn't work properly. Some clients were able to hear music, others did not. The recording was also a disaster haha.

Last resort I shared the link to my playlist. But also the normal audio was different as a mentioned. 

Someone else experienced this? 

I have just added a second Zoom account to begin scheduling meetings between 2 executives. However, I can't log in to both at the same time if needed. Is there any way to connect them? Other suggestions for managing 2 separate accounts without logging off and on each time? Thanks.
