Anyone know how to find the other options? TIA

Mac User's System Freezes when Sharing Screen

I have a Mac user that has recently started to experience a system slowdown to the point of freezing when sharing their screen in Zoom.  The user said that it only happens when sharing their screen in Zoom & that the rest of the time their system performs just fine.  We've already tried a general uninstall/reinstall of Zoom and checking for updates with the reinstall, and the user's tried unchecking the advanced share screen setting: "User hardware acceleration to optimize video sharing". 

 

I've read in forum posts that potentially checking the advanced share screen setting "Use TCP connection for screen sharing" is helpful, but I'm not sure what, if any, downsides that could cause. 

 

We've also reset the user's NVRAM.  

 

Does anyone have any other ideas that we could try to speed up the user's experience of Zoom while sharing their screen?  I'm including the system specs below.

 

System info:

MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2018)

Processor Speed: 2.30 GHz

Processor Type: 8-Core Intel Core i9

RAM: 32.0 GB

OS: Monterey 12.6.1

Resolved! How to stop dual screens being taken over by PPT during share screen.

Hello. I am running a hybird style meeting and using my computer to take notes while hosting the meeting and sharing presentations. I am working of a Mac (OS 12.5) and running dual screens (not mirrored). A little background: the way I’d prefer to use my set up is to have the Zoom meeting (a view of participants) on one screen, while taking notes, managing Zoom chat and participants, and doing other work on my main screen.

 

My issue is when I share a PPT with the group. My process for sharing: I open PowerPoint, begin a screen share, and share the presentation I want (from the app, not from the desktop). When it is shared, the presentation takes over BOTH of my screens, leaving me dead in the water.

 

What change needs to be made in the Zoom settings that will stop the share screen from taking over my computer?  Toggling between presenter view and main view has not fixed it. 

 

TIA for your help.

f the Zoom Remote Control Button Not Displaying Properly

Dear Zoom Team,

Hello! I encountered an issue when sharing my screen with students: I cannot see the "Remote Control" button. I have already checked my account settings to ensure that the "Remote Control" feature is enabled, reinstalled, and updated the Zoom application, but the problem persists.

Interestingly, on one occasion, when my friend shared her screen and the "Remote Control" button appeared on her Zoom interface, she granted me control. After switching to my screen, the button appeared, and I could use the feature. However, it seems that this functionality only becomes available to me when the other person already has the "Remote Control" feature enabled. I cannot activate it directly myself.

After ending the call, I tried another video call with the same friend, shared my screen again, and noticed that the "Remote Control" button was missing once more.

Could you please investigate this issue and help resolve it? I would greatly appreciate your assistance.

Darshan Hiranandani : How can I disable the Zoom installer download when joining a meeting via link?

Hi Team,

I’m Darshan Hiranandani, experiencing an issue with Zoom on my MacBook and iPhone. Every time I click on a Zoom meeting link on my MacBook, an installer package for Zoom automatically downloads, even though I already have the Zoom app installed. This doesn't happen on my iPhone, and I don't see an option to cancel or refuse the download.

It’s quite frustrating because if I join multiple meetings in a day, the installer packages pile up in my downloads folder. Has anyone else experienced this? How can I stop these automatic downloads from occurring?

I’d appreciate any suggestions or solutions!

Thanks!

Regards

Darshan Hiranandani
