[NJTechDiv] Zoom help

[carcione at access.net]

Thanks Miss Ruth.  Guess it wouldn’t hurt to run a full scan.  

I got out of Zoom and got back in again an hour or 2 later, and then I was able to see my event and copy the invitation.  

So problem solved, at least for now.  But I’ll run a scan anyway.

Hi, Tracy,

 

Miss Ruth here! I have a Zoom account, so I just went and created a "mock" meeting to see if I get that message, but it didn't tell me I had to connect calendar, or to get a 3rd party app to do it. 

 

I wonder if that message might've popped up from somewhere else and is some kind of malware? Just a thought. 

 

I had a Trojan the other day, but was able to quarantine it before it did any damage. 

 

Couldn't hurt to run a full scan on your computer to check for viruses. If you're clear of viruses, I'd probably scrap the invitation and create a new one to see if the issue persists.

 

Hope this helps!

 

Take care,

   Miss Ruth

Help!  I’ve just created a Zoom meeting for tomorrow, as I’ve done before, but when I try to go to the invitation to copy it, Zoom now says I have to “connect calendar”.  And, apparently I have to create some kind of 3rd-party account to do that.  

What is this?  Do I really have to do this to get my invitation out?  Big Brother strikes again.

Tracy
