As an example, when I'm viewing the Zoom meeting I see the speaker in the right 50% and content in the left 50%.  That is my goal for a recording.  Is this possible through Zoom.

I could record my screen and call it good, but that would involve even more software and the chance of error goes up.

I appreciate your help.

Zoom won't close the app when clicking the 'X' in the upper right hand corner. This is by design, per Zoom - https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/Exit-app-when-I-close-the-window/m-p/28362#M14018

This is the kind of "value-add" that Zoom loves to force on its costumers, and explains why Zoom was embarrassingly unable to capitalize on market share during the pandemic. Microsoft Teams and Google Meet are so much better in every way, and I hate having to admit that.

I'm uninstalling Zoom from my workstation and will be using Google Meet moving forward. 

my zoom used to save my professional audio settings, and whenever I would log in I would have to do nothing. 

for the past few months, I now have to switch the setting to on, as it defaults to off. 

I have a lot of technically challenged students who I have to talk through this process every time and they find it daunting. 

Why is this now the default setting? Is there a way of changing this. 

thanks

Hi,

I'm an independent contractor meeting with customers every day over Zoom, and I just got a new M1 MacBook Pro as much of my business is done on Mac. However, as I now run parallels since M1 Macs no longer have access to Bootcamp, I'm encountering an issue I never had before. Zoom no longer allows me to have virtual backgrounds up which is a problem as I work from home. It just says, "your devices does not support virtual backgrounds". This doesn't make sense as I can use them just fine when running on the Mac side of things. And yes, I know I run both Mac and Windows simultaneously on it, but it's a lot easier to have them both on the Windows at the same time for what I do. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

We are a small non-profit with one Zoom Pro license that we use for meetings and workshops. I am starting a new program that will involve up to 20 different small-group, peer-led meetings throughout each month. I would like for each small group leader to host the meeting (with screen share and recording capability). I know I could start each meeting as host, make the group leader co-host, and then leave, but that's a lot of work and I'm doing this on a volunteer basis. Are there any alternatives that won't require us to purchase a license for each individual group leader? That would be cost-prohibitive for us. 

For example, could we purchase one more Pro license, add all of the group leaders as users, and use that to assign them as Alternative Hosts when we schedule the meetings?

Thanks for your ideas.

I go to a few meetings that are held on a regular basis and the meeting ID and passwords are always the same along with the day and time. So, what I would love to be able to do is save all the meeting information and then when I am ready to log onto them I have all the information saved in like a phone book and just click on JOIN next to the one I want and connect to the meeting!  How can I do that?

If ZOOM does not currently do that, I was havijg trouble finding the feature request section if some colus SHOW ME where it is I would be grateful!

Thanks!

I frequently use the remote control feature. Today the student could manipulate the shared screen but I could not see what she was doing. She was also unable to type. Any reason or way to fix it so that I can see what she is manipulating. I have used this feature many times in the past without issue.  Help?
