Meetings

Hi, I am trying to help an autistic friend in UK set up zoom but I live in Australia.  Been going round and round with help.  Wondering how to do it since the answers to that question didn't show me how to explain it to him.Thanks in advance 

This morning I was leading a group Zoom where I share a slideshow with audio, and the control panel kept disappearing, so I continually had to start over again. There was no time to go to a forum or chat group and read all the suggestions when I was already holding up our meeting.So, like the ancient geek I am, I 'splained what was happening to the group, and kept triing different approaches. Finally around the 5th try got it to work. I strongly dislike how we pay for Zoom and still are expected to spend a lot of time researching glitches.  This is a comment which is true for ALL THE CORPORATE SOFTWARE we use ---- the consumer is made to be the be techie, which involves spending tons of valuable time and energy researching solutions to the problem, testing them out and then, implementing before the next change manifests. If you Zoom employees could pass this on to the powers that be, it would be appreciated.  There are so many of us who use Zoom without being employed by a co

I hosted a meeting that was held in English and a Spanish interpreter translating the meeting in Spanish as we were live. I, as the host, recorded the  English version (non-translated) to the local computer version and my colleague ( a meeting participant, not a co-host) requested to record the Spanish version. The participant successfully converted the Spanish reocorded meeting to a video.mp4, audio file, etc. My recording did not convert to an Mp4. In fact, civnersion window did not even appear for me. Has anyone experienced issues like this one? Any solutions? Help 🙂 

Hello,the 'Disable download recording' button is lost and we need to urgently send a recorded file.The share download page of Zoom has changed and in the new there is no such option.Could you help?Many thanks. 

I have a Chromebook for college and for the last 2 years, anytime I have a class that uses Zoom as the platform for meetings there are constant connectivity issues! I lose connection every 2 minutes and 32 seconds. It drops video and audio for a few seconds then puts me back into the meeting. It doesn't matter if I use the web browser version, the app, or the Chromebook extension. Nothing works!  And no, it's not my Wi-Fi connection.  Zoom also disables the camera on my monitor but allows the keyboard camera. All other streaming platforms work perfectly fine. IT'S ZOOM SPECIFICALLY! This issue has been brought up several times through forums and Zoom has not addressed it or released a formal statement about its compatibility with Chromebooks. IS IT COMPATIBLE OR NOT????

Hi Everyone.  I currently have Zoom Workplace Pro. This renews next month.  I am due to hold back-to-back zoom sessions for four weeks starting the end of September and going into the beginning of October.  With my current plan, I need to schedule a room for each day. Is there a facility that would allow me to set up one room for the entire period of time that I need the room for to keep things simple for me? Having to send out joining links everyday to different people gets very messy and time consuming!  Thanks in advance 

All of a sudden I am experiencing video & audio delays, but my internet connection is fine. Any ideas?

All of my settings are correct and the waiting room is enabled. People were always sent into the waiting room until today. I did some troubleshooting & found google workspace meetings are defaulted to not enabled. This must have been updated since yesterday. When setting up meetings in google workspace using the zoom extension for workspace, you have to manually toggle the waiting room option on the right side bar in gmail calendar (clicking the zoom logo, don't use the drop down) when using both PMI & Generate automatically. Wanted to share this in case anyone has new issues with this.

I am looking for an answer as to how to address a very bad problem with sync of video and audio in real time on Zoom meetings. I am repeatedly having the video suddenly stop staying in sync with the audio, and it lags 5 seconds or more behind, which makes a Zoom meeting impossible. It doesn't necessarily resolve even if I log and back in. It is starting to happen most of the time. I had this come up a couple years ago as a recurring problem, investigated with my internet provider and Apple, and then with Zoom, and there was never an answer or useful advice. It seemed to mostly go away on its own, but here it is recurring and making Zoom almost useless unless solved. I have not had it come up with non-Zoom apps.This is in live meetings, not recordings. I have a Mac Powerbook. I have fast wi-fi speed. It wasn't happening at all for some time, so I don't know why this is now happening. No one I know has experienced this, so no one has any advice.Does anyone out there have an idea or good

Hi there, I have Zoom on my work computer as well as on my work laptop. Whenever I log into Zoom on one machine, it automatically logs me out on the other machine. Is there any way to avoid this? Thanks!

This is crazy and very frustrating and much more difficult since the zoom dashboard update...Today I teach a live class. It is password protected. I decided I want to take the auto-recording off for this and all future settings. But this meeting ID and info appears NOWHERE in my meetings profile.not in recurring, not in the calendar... But I tested it and it works.Its a live link... where did it go!!!!!!!!!!!????help!

Hi. I run a few distance learning classrooms. We run Zoom on Microsoft Surface computers with two external monitors. So, three total monitors. Instructors share Powerpoints via with Zoom in dual monitor mode on the external monitors. This has worked fine for years. Now, when the Powerpoint is shared, it minimizes the main Zoom box, taking the audience out of view and it moves the floating control bar over the Powerpoint. This makes dual monitor mode unusable. So, my workaround has been to disable dual monitor mode for now. I have checked every setting and made sure the display settings on the computer have not changed. Has anyone experienced something like this?  Thank you.

Hey,I have a few questions about the Zoom for IT Admins:1. is it an universal binary (can it run on both apple silicon and intel-based Mac)?2. if i have Zoom Workplace installed, can i update it by installing the Zoom for IT Admins? and how about the other way around?

I am a math tutor using Zoom with my students.  Sometimes the annotation pencil appears when my student is sharing their screen, and I am able to write on their screen.  Other times the pencil does not appear, and I cannot write on their shared screen.  How do I fix this?

My completed meetings continue to show in "upcoming meetings" tab instead of being automatically moved to "previous meetings". They only get moved on the next day. This is new behavior. Until about 2-3 weeks ago, each meeting would move to the "previous meetings" tab as soon as it was completed. Has something changed? Is there any way to restore the earlier behavior?

We have multiple meeting in one day, I played a mp3 file for each meeting at specific time in morning and evening, Currently I start the zoom meeting and then click on Share screen and use advance tab and then click on Computer Audio and press share, it play the computer audio to the meeting and after specific time (when Audio is completed) then I end the meeting, Is there any way to automate this process, where it can start the meeting at given time  and automatically select the option Computer audio and end the meeting at specific time. I can start the mp3 from Computer scheduler. It will be great if zoom also provide the flexiblity to use the specific file from Cloud and play that file on Zoom meeting at specific time and when Audio is finished, automatically end the meeting.

How can I generate link for Large Meetings with 500 Participants that I have subscribed?

Hello, When connecting to a meeting, a recording automatically starts. I am not the one that initiates it (nor my invitees). Is there any way to stop this? I do not want to record every meeting I have on Zoom. Thanks ! Joel

I have a recorded meeting.  People want the link.  Zoom gave it a randomized passcode.  I want it to be simpler, like my name.  How do I change it for that one meeting?

Since the last update, now when I create zoom meetings and copy the invitation to the meetings it no longer provides the meeting time and date like it used to. It now omits the name of the meeting and time, and just shows zoom link and meeting ID basically. Can anyone advise?  Thanks  

Hi, I recently signed up for Zoom, thank God I didn't pay for a full year (yet). Had a first meeting on Zoom with 2 massive issues:1. I could not record the meeting2. the transcript didn't work either Despite signing in as Host, Zoom didn't recognise me as Host on screen and thus prevented me from recording and getting a transcript. VERY handy when you agreed to send the recording to your client.... Had to revert to Quicktime. Already reported the issue last week but haven't heard anything. Looking for alternatives to Zoom... How do I get Zoom to recognise me as Host on screen and allow me to record and to get a transcript? Thanks!

When I turn on zoom my image don't show. It stays black. I can see other persons in the meeting, but my image don't show. What is happening. Does someone can help me?Thanks

Hi. I have an organization with several Zoom users.  All of us are able to join video calls in the browser (using the built-in web version, not the SDK). All of us are able to use virtual backgrounds except one person.  This person keeps getting the following error: They are using the most recent version of Chrome. Why is this issue happening? 

Does anyone know how to ensure zoom makes a noise at the start of a scheduled meeting as a reminder you have a call? I used to have this feature and now it's not working and I am missing calls because of it. Thanks

I have a intel i5-46xx CPU and 16gb of ram. Before the update I had been using virtual backgrounds with no issue. Immediately after the update they were disabled. The article has not been updated with any new requirements if something's changed.
