Zoom Whiteboard becomes View-Only after several days of creating

If I create a new whiteboard during a meeting, we can both use it without a problem for that meeting. The next day the whiteboard still shows normal status with no View-Only tag.

A week later, when we meet again, the whiteboard has a View-Only tag added to it automatically without me even logging into zoom or doing anything in between that time. This happens every week when I meet with my teacher.

 

It can not be removed, you can not choose Collaborating when opening the board because it thinks I am not the owner of my own board.

 

You can not touch (iPad) or click (PC) on the View-Only displayed at the top to change it in any way.

 

You must copy the board and create a new one, which will again become View-Only automatically after a week's time before the next meeting.

 

How in the world do you remove this tag or prevent it from ever being applied to your board in the first place and how do you allow yourself to choose Collaborating.

 

Also how do you mute the volume on the iPad so you don't hear yourself talking when using a tablet as a whiteboard during a meeting. The tablet is just for drawing on the whiteboard, it shouldn't be trying to host the entire meeting as the PC is doing this job.

As of today, April 24, 2024, when sharing the WhiteBoard, I can no longer see the participant video. I have been using Zoom for years and I have not had this issue until today. I can see the participant video when I am not sharing the WhiteBoard. However, if the WhiteBoard is being shared, the only video I see is the host video. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi!

As a techer I use classic board to write during classes. When I close it and share documents and then I go back to the board I was usin, the text I previously wrote disappeared! I also tried to save it, but still disappears.

Never happened before. I wonder if you had the same pronlem and possibly consequent to a new version.

It is relly annoying, because at the end of the session, before closing, I use to save the board and send it in attachment to the students.

Any help? Thanks!

Good morning!

 

I use Zoom in Polish and I want to continue doing so. I use Windows 11 in Polish and I want to continue doing so. I temporarily changed language to English, in order to take a screenshot of my keyboard settings.

 

My problem is that Zoom has some sort of problem with words. I searched this issue online and found that it's usually a problem with Windows, not Zoom, but where exactly is the problem? In settings, yes but where exactly? I don't understand exactly what needs to be changed, so that Zoom and Windows understand that I don't want any word to be underlined in any language, no matter how correct or incorrect it may be in any language.

 

See 3 screenshots. Please could someone advise?

 

Thanks in advance!
Inspector Green

 

PS: Windows 11, Zoom version 6.3.6 56144

I went to open my WhiteBoard that I have been using for the last 6 month to organize research and now all of the sudden it won't open. I received the error message: "There is an error loading recent version of the page. Use version history to recover previous version of the page." But I have looked everywhere and I can't find a version history link or button that will do this. I have also submitted a help ticket and I have gotten zero response. Can someone please help me recover 6 months of my work??

Hi, I'd like to restrict meeting attendees from creating and sharing their whiteboards. How do I set up the meeting as a host to prevent attendees from doing this? Thank you!

Stickies are ruined! How can we fix them?

I don't know when the change happened, but on Zoom Whiteboards, Sticky Notes were always created with middle-center aligned auto-sized font. Now when I create stickies, they have top left aligned 16 point font. They're basically just textboxes with a background color now.

 

The whole point of stickes is that you and your team can read them at different magnifications. The new sticky behaviour makes Zoom Whiteboard undesirable for my staff so I can't get them to use it over other apps, since all other whiteboard apps have stickies that work like a normal human would expect.

 

Am I missing something? Is there a hidden default settings pallete or something? Why did Zoom do this?
