Re: learning zoom

I don't know what browser you are using nor what gave you the notice. If you are on the actual site, the problem itself needs to be solved. If it isn't, you may have problem after problem downloading legitimate files. As far as I know, the Microsoft store can't be used. This is not an app, it is an application.

So I went to ninite.com, it gave me the same message from my windows security. So is it better to get the app from the Microsoft store? I had a friend who downloaded type of program and it came with a trojan. I did not want that to happen to me.

I have one without an account. I still have to enter the password but I can use the history to enter a room. I don't have a ;particular opinion about whether an account is created, I'm saying that if the user wants to keep things more simple, for many people it isn't necessary. I also think it should be mentioned here that after the client is installed, you should go to the test meeting page. I don't know if the link differs in different parts of the world but you can go here using the browser you want and launch a test meeting in The United States. https://zoom.us/test There is a join button on the page to start a test meeting, with you the only member. You can look around and play with the Zoom interface while the meeting is in progress and after the application is installed, people can tell you short cuts you might be interested in such as muting and unnmuting yourself, moving to the chat area, moving to the attendees list, and others. You can test your received audio and your microphone. If you have trouble working with the page, ask about how to use it here.

Retaining a meeting history is one such benefit. This means if you are attending a class, or other sinarios where you will be joining the same room more than once, you can do it through history instead of following the link in an email.

You don't need one to participate in a meeting or to download the application.

I will follow the sugestions. I have been using the zoom app off the iPhone and I did not have a zoom account. But, I will create one today.

Since you’ve been using zoom off your iPhone I’m assuming you already have an account? Go to the zoom web site: www.zoom.us Sign in with your email and password. You’ll next want to download the zoom meetings client and install it. You should then be able to follow a zoom link in an email to join a meeting. It’s a good idea to go through your audio settings to make sure it’s set to automatically connect to audio when you join the meeting. You won’t need a camera unless you want meeting participants to see you. Jaws has better support for zoom than NVDA does if using jaws 2020 or 2021, There is also a training webinar on the freedom scientific web site that should give you all you need. Link is below. using zoom with jaws I hope this helps. Please feel to reach out should you have other questions. Cheers. Chris.

So is there anyone who can show me how to use zoom off the pc? Do I need to download zoom as an app threw the windows store; is it better to use jaws or NVDA; I want to use the brave browser like I have been using. Do I need a camera I currently do not have a camera access off my pc. I have a headset wired or Bluetooth. Thanks Heather Sent from Mail for Windows 10
