[NJTechDiv] Setting up a Zoom meeting on someone else's site

[dandrews920 at comcast.net]

I don't think you missed anything. The process to set up a meeting, has
gotten more complex with Zoom.  They are trying to get people to have zoom
email accounts. It all depends on your license, and your version of zoom. 

 

I generally figure it out, but I have to plunk around.  I schedule the
meeting, then I poke around until I find a display info button, or something
like that.  Or you can try putting in your email as a recipient, and it
might email you, but I think you have to be entered as a contact elsewhere
in the system.  Sorry, I am not clearer, it is a mess.

Subject: [NJTechDiv] Setting up a Zoom meeting on someone else's site

 

I'm leading the Blind Crafters Group, and one of our members is letting us
use her Zoom for some classes.  She gave me her ID so I can set up the
meetings myself, but I had trouble the first time I tried it.  I need some
advice.

I was able to set up a meeting, but I did not see any of the info about how
people could get into the meeting.  I'm guessing it was emailed to the
person who owns the account, and that's not me.  Is that right, or did I
just miss the info when I was setting up the meeting?

When the meeting happened, I signed in as the site owner, but I wasn't the
host, so I couldn't make the presenter the co-host.  What did I do wrong?

I'd really appreciate some help.  I have to set up another class, and I want
to do it right this time.  

If you want to talk off-list, I'm carcione at access.net
