Issue with Granting Recording Permission in a Meeting

I want to allow a participant to record a meeting, but the option to grant them permission does not appear in their profile. In my settings, I have already enabled "Record to computer files," which allows hosts and participants to record the meeting to their computer, including video, shared content, and an audio-only file.

Additionally, I have activated the settings for both Internal meeting participants and External meeting participants to record. However, I still don't see the option to allow participants to record.

Why is this happening, and how can I enable participant recording?

Macbook Pro Zoom meeting Screenshare no side by side option

I am currently doing a sign language course over Zoom. The problem I am having is, when the Tutor shares their screen to type what they sign, their video screen goes very small (the same size as the rest of us in the class). It's very difficult to see their hands clearly and what they are signing. I believe on Zoom for windows you can simply just click the 3 dots on the top corner of their image and select it to be larger but there is no option to do that on Mac apparently. Hopefully someone can help me. I've gone through all the various view (Gallery, speaker, multi-view) but none of these work.

Zoom camera stops working during Meeting

I am using a ThinkBook 14 G6 IRL. During my Zoom meetings, everything runs smoothly at first. However, after having back-to-back long meetings—around 3 or 4—the Zoom camera stops working. When I check the built-in camera app on my laptop, it operates normally. Sometimes, restarting my laptop temporarily resolves the issue, but other times it doesn’t. I’ve found that running Windows Update can also help, but after a few days, the same problem reoccurs, and the camera stops functioning during my meetings. How can I permanently resolve this issue?

Zoom randomly shares my computer sound even when I'm not sharing audio

I have an odd issue that has only happened a couple of times and is seemingly random (first time was in August last year, second time was today).

 

Basically, I'll be in a Zoom meeting, not sharing sound or screen, and I'll watch a video on my computer (eg. on YouTube or Twitter). Even though I'm not sharing anything from my computer, other people in the meeting will hear the video audio.

 

It's not through the computer mic as I have earphones in and the friends in the Zoom also said that it was definitely coming directly from the computer (not as indirect/background sound being picked up through mic). It seems intermittent as well, as the first time I watched a Twitter video today, others in the Zoom heard it, but when I played another Twitter video a few minutes later to test if they could hear it, they said they couldn't hear anything.

 

Does anyone have any idea what is causing this? Operating system is Windows 10 if that makes a difference.

I saw that Zoom recently revised the page for creating new meetings - page has always had a nice look & feel, but recent (unneeded, I'd guess) changes, at least 1 which seems like it was make "just because we could" have made my meeting setups a bit harder.

I setup regular meetings for 12-step groups, and until recently, it's been a breeze.  The meeting title, like almost all text boxes on web pages, "remembers" the last few entries, I select one that's close and just change the date - good to go!  Then, I'd just scroll down and select "allow participants to join anytime", since sometimes members would sign on before the host.

NOW - The text box for meeting title no longer remembers latest entries (my guess is they either made their own control , which doesn't support history, or they deliberately disabled history... why???).  Now I have to keep a .txt file with the subjects so I can copy n' paste/edit, rather than re-type it every time (it's important that the title follow a consistent style)

THEN - scroll down to the bottom, and .... the "allow participants...." option is GONE!  ... wait - there's a "show" / "hide" option - now I have to click that to see what I've always seen before.  Now, this is actually a good option to have - when you need it - generally if the options are long and it make the rest of the page harder to get to since you have to scroll past it - NEITHER of which applies here - there's only FOUR options, and they're at the BOTTOM of the page - why do we need to hide them???  One extra click seems petty, but I work on public facing websites, and this is website 101 rules being ignored, and the MOST common complaint I get from users of my websites is, "now I HAVE to make this extra click to do what I wanted to do" - remember - what the designer/programmer/managers all feel is INVALID if the users find the results to detract from the UX (user experience).

I looks like times I've seen web programmers "improving" a site based on their own ideas ("hey look, I could put a 'hide/show' option here!" - [whether it needs it or not]l), rather than the feedback from the community.

Obviously, I could be wrong about all of this, however I'd like to see the comments calling for removing text box history and imposing a 'hide/show' option for 4 options at the bottom of the screen - ???

I schedule meetings for someone else & am his delegate.  He's asked for audio only meetings so tried doing One Tap Mobile.  However when he dials into the meeting he gets the message that the host passcode is incorrect.  Participants hear that the meeting has not yet started.  I've triple confirmed the passcode is the same as in the meeting invite.  This works for me when I send from my own account, but not as his delegate.  Wondering how to get the host passcode for his meetings to work.

I have been experiencing issues with Zoom meetings for the last few weeks. 

 

My Audio/Speakers work fine. 

When i go into a Zoom meeting the Speakers stop working. 

- The other people on the call can hear me but i cant hear them. 

- The speakers work fine when i test them before entering the meeting. 

- The speakers work fine for everything else. 

- When in the meeting i can go to Sound>Playback> Disable and Re Enable my Speakers and the sound will come through in the call. 

It seems as though Zoom is blocking my speakers when i join a meeting. 

I have reinstalled drivers, windows updates, Installed the newest version of Zoom. 

 

 

Has anyone else experienced this?

Im using an HP Probook 440 G9 ( issue is the same on a 430 G6)

Any ideas how to fix it?

My audio level fluctuates widely

I'm setting up a new laptop and I've been told by other call participants that, when using Zoom, the level of the first couple of seconds of my speech is often barely audible, then usually kicks in much higher. For example, if I count to ten "1, 2, 3" is faint, "4 etc." perfectly audible. There's no such problem on my old laptop (both Dells, though different models), and I've tried to match the audio settings but without resolving the issue. I haven't encountered this problem on the new laptop if using other video calling apps, such as Teams or Whereby. I've now listened to a call from someone else using my problematic laptop and the level will suddenly drop or suddenly come back to normal with no discernible pattern. This can happen close to or far away from the computer. I updated the version earlier today. Any ideas?
