[Trainer-Talk] Need help recording Zoom meetings on Mac

[Brad Snyder]

I use Zoom on a Mac and have recorded Zoom meetings locally without the issue you describe.
Meetings I have recorded are in a M4A audio format, or MP4 video format.  Both of these file types can be played on QuickTime Player, which should be included on every Mac.  There should be no conversion process involved.
As an alternate to QuickTime Player, these files can be played using iTunes (or the new Music app if using Catalina), or you can download VLC for Mac.
Locally recorded Zoom meeting files are saved in  a Zoom folder in the Documents folder on your Mac, and are organized by date and time of the recording.

You may also want to review the Recording Preferences in the Zoom Preferences, though I have never altered anything here from the defaults.

Beyond this, I can’t offer any other help.

Hello all. I am in a Journalism course and I need to do an interview project on Zoom and the meeting has to be recorded. I am also working with a client who has to record one of his classes on Zoom. The issue I’m having is that I am recording on a Mac, and when I stop the recording and leave the meeting, it tells me that the recording is being converted. The only problem is that it says that the Mac has no application to open and convert the file. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do to solve this issue and convert recorded files from Zoom? If anyone can give any suggestions or meet with me on a call, it would greatly be appreciated. Thank you so much.
