I am both a leader and a participant in zoom meetings.  I am using a laptop computer for zooming.  In either roll my screen shows only a gray background with a little locked symbol.  I've tried to follow all of the suggested solutions with no luck.  I am able to participate with audio, but no video.  Please!  Can someone tell me what to do to unlock my video?  Thank you so much!!  🙂

Hi everyone,


I currently host daily Zoom meetings where I interact with various participants. As the admin, along with my partner, we manage screen sharing and microphone control, while attendees mainly join as listeners.

However, I’m facing a challenge that I’d like to resolve. Many participants do not enter the meeting with their full name, which causes issues when trying to identify them during the session. This forces me to interrupt the meeting to ask them to update their name, which takes up valuable time.


I’m looking for a solution that would require participants to enter their full name before they can join the Zoom room. Additionally, I would like to obtain a list of participants with their full names to efficiently track attendance, as it’s crucial for me to know who attends these daily meetings.


I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or experiences you can share to implement these functionalities in Zoom and optimize the management of my meetings.


Thank you in advance for your help!

I have 19 users with Zoom accounts and cannot seem to upgrade them.  Here are my issues:

1. Those with Version 5.15.##, or below, can no longer open their software.  Therefore, they cannot sign on and check for updates.

2.  When I go to the Zoom website, I only see "Zoom Workplace" (maybe version 6.1.6.43767?) as a download choice.  Is this the same as plain Zoom? (All current users are on Zoom 5.10.0 thru 5.17.10).

3.  If I download, and run the installer, Zoom Workplace will not open.  I still get messages that I need to be above version 5.16.6

4.  I cannot get any help from Chat, or phone calls, because I'm not "qualified" for live person support.

 

ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, 

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra that I want to use for zoom meetings. 

Most is great, but one thing is sorely missing, and I wonder if I am simply overlooking something. 

I have two front cameras. A "standard camera" and a "wideangle camera". 

Now, when I am in a zoom meeting, I can only choose one front camera, the standard one. 

I really want/need to use that other wideangle camera, but I see no way to choose it. 

I can also only pick one of the three lenses on the back of the tablet. 

Is there any way I can add these cameras to my zoom app so I can choose them in my meetings?

Any and all help is greatly appreciated. 

🙂

Alternative Host – Not Allowed

I'd like to add someone as an alternate host for a Zoom Meeting. Zoom says, "Unable to assign "[EMAIL]" as an alternative host because the user cannot be selected at this time." Why? And, how do I add this person as an Alternative Host for Meetings? Show more

Resolved! Pinning Capabilities

I'd like to know how many separate participants a host can pin to separate screens. For example, if I have a quad card, can I pin 4 individual participants to the 4 individual screens? Thank you

Annoying audism feature - turn your audio on

Every single time, I have to say no, I do not want audio. I am deaf, and it is very, very annoying. Every single meeting I go to, pop up the "you want to turn on audio", every time someone spotlight me, pop up the "you want to turn on audio" and whenever I want to record the meeting, pop up the "you want to turn on the audio." NO I DO NOT WANT! We can see each other fine in sign language and I just want to be at peace without the audism.
