Thanks very much for your comment! We appreciate it. One thing you can try is to set up a practice meeting with a friend. That way you can explore the process without the pressure of having to run a real meeting at the same time. You can also make a recording of this practice meeting to review afterwards. The main thing, though, is simply to jump in. Once you've given it a try, it will definitely feel less intimidating. Do let us know if we can be of any further help: www.cozygrammar.com/contact/ Your comment has gotten us thinking about possibly putting together practice sessions for individuals or small groups. Would this be of interest to you? Do let us know. Thanks again for your comment, and all good wishes to you.

Practice sessions would be very helpful! Thank you!

The best thing to do is to make them a host rather than a co-host. Then you can leave the meeting and they can continue to conduct it. You can read more here: support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362573-Passing-host-controls-to-leave-the-meeting All good wishes to you!

Thanks for your comment, Michael. So glad you found the video helpful!

Great question! I have simply sent the Zoom link in a newsletter, but you can also select all of your participants (on the meeting page) and have Zoom send the information as well. You might also find this page helpful: support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360001211743-Enabling-upcoming-meeting-reminders All good wishes to you!

Thanks for your message. I've also had this happen. Here are two things you can try: 1) Make sure you've clicked YES to enable computer audio. 2) If computer audio is enabled, try exiting the meaning and joining again. That usually does the trick. Hope this helps!

Thanks for this comment, Jango. Yes, the look of the screen sometimes changes, but as long as you can find the "schedule a meeting" button you should be fine. All good wishes to you.

Thanks for this comment, Jango. Yes, the format has changed slightly since we made this video. Waiting room simply means that after you begin your meeting you will need to admit each participant individually. This is so that unknown users don't accidentally enter the meeting. Passcode, on the other hand, frees you from having to admit each person individually. Either one can work fine. All good wishes to you and have a great time with your friends! Together we'll get through this tough situation.

Thanks so much for your comment, Rose. Glad you found the place cozy! All good wishes to you and yours from all of us at Cozy Grammar.

Great questions! The main difference between the free and paid accounts is that the free account has limits on the length of a meeting when more than two people are involved. The free account allows meetings of more than two people for up to 40 minutes. It also allows up to 100 participants per meeting. The paid account allows much longer group meetings as well as more participants. Hope that helps clarify the options!

Many thanks for your message, Renee. These are great questions. For your contacts, try right-clicking over the contact you wish to remove (it may be control-click if you use a Mac). Then the option to delete contact should appear. You may also see three vertical dots at the right side of each contact. Clicking there opens a menu that includes deleting the contact. As for sending an invitation to all contacts at the same time, this article may help: blog.zoom.us/feature-spotlight-messaging/ I don't have personal experience with it but imagine it's worth taking a look at. Good luck!

You're welcome! Thanks very much for your comment, Clair, and thanks too for sharing the link. We're honored and grateful. As far as spell check & correction in the chat box, it's my understanding that this is only available if you have Windows 8 but not on other machines. In any case, we aren't seeing it in our version. Let's hope it becomes more widely available!

Many thanks for your comment. Yes, sometimes the user interface looks slightly different. Are you still able to do what you need to do?

Thanks very much for your comment. We've since made our own tutorial about breakout rooms: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nrOgopOKrszKYGg.html Take a peek and don't hesitate to let us know if you have any questions!

Many thanks for your question. If you're referring to saving a meeting invitation, "clipboard" is simply a way to refer to what has been copied and can therefore be pasted. Between being copied and being pasted, apps refer to it begin on a "clipboard" (though of course this isn't actually a clipboard). Does this answer your question? If not, be sure to let me know and I'll try again!

Oops, I think my previous reply to this question got waylaid somewhere in the comments section. Sorry about that! To modify an existing meeting, you can either go to your account on the Zoom website, select "Meetings," hover over the meeting name, and select "Edit," or go to the Zoom app, select "Meetings," select the meeting in question, and select "Edit." Hope this helps!

Many thanks for your comment, Joanne. Yes, there certainly is. While you can Google something like "games for Zoom meetings," it's also fun and a more festive challenge to try "translating" games that you already enjoy as a family into a Zoom meeting. For example, you can play a game like charades, pictionary, or dictionary by making use of the private chat function. Once you have your teams, you can share the word/idea/image with only your team members. Hope this helps, and Happy Holidays!

Many thanks for your comment, Mary! Yes, it can certainly seem like a lot of information. I would suggest hosting a test meeting with a friend or family member. Then, if you find there's something you can't remember how to do, click "show more" in the video description above and you'll find an index to all the different topics in the video. Review any topics you want to remember and soon you'll be well prepared!

Yes, though he IS an inspiration, one of many . . . Thanks for your comment!

Hi Denise, thanks for your comment. Recording a meeting on Zoom can be a little tricky, but here's what we've found to work. Zoom basically records what you yourself see, so start by making sure you're seeing what you want to have recorded (speaker view or gallery view). Then, if you want the video to focus on just yourself or on someone else you can pin their screen. To do this, you click on their video screen and right click (on a PC) or simply hover (on a Mac) to get the option to pin. Then no matter who talks, the video you've pinned will be recorded. Hope this helps!

Many thanks for your comment, Phil. Yes, making someone a co-host should make it possible for them to share their screen. Even if someone isn't a co-host, you can allow them to share their screen by way of the participants dialogue window. I think you select "more" and "allow to share screen." All good wishes to you!

Hello again, Phil. Just wanted to correct my last comment. To allow other people to share their screens, go to Share Screen (rather than Participants), click "Advanced Sharing Options," and under "Who Can Share" choose "All Participants." I didn't have Zoom open before me when I wrote previously, but I tested it out today during a meeting and wanted to update my response. Thank you!

Many thanks for your reply. If you think a guide to screen sharing would be helpful, we'd be happy to put one together for you. Let me know what you would find helpful and we'll see what we can do! In the meantime, here's a very quick answer to your question itself: To share videos on Zoom, open Zoom first. Then click the screen share option. Then choose the application you want to share. Give it a try and let me know what questions you have. Thank you!

@@CozyGrammar where are the applications or video's etc stored and how do you retrieve them get them up onto the screen

@@beckymichaelis9014 Great question! You simply need to have the applications and videos open in a window on your computer. Then, when you choose the screen share option, each of these open applications or windows will there for you to choose from. Simply choose the one you want and it should open for you. Give it a try and let us know how it goes!

Thanks for your comment. So glad you found it relaxing!

I enjoyed your helpful video, but I use an iPad not a laptop. Please can you help me to be a host using an iPad. I am having difficulty knowing how to admit a participant into a meeting. Thank you.

@@eileensugden9418 Many thanks for your comment and question. I believe that on an iPad you will need to select the participant icon to admit people into a meeting. On the iPad, this icon will be at the top of the screen rather than at the bottom. Once you click this icon, you will see the option to admit new users. Let me know if this helps, and all good wishes to you!

Yes, that's one of the things this tool can help make happen!

We'll take that as a compliment!

You're welcome! All good wishes to you.
