Troubleshooting Tips

Camera Not Working

  • Confirm you joined with video turned on (the camera icon should not have a red slash).
  • Ensure Zoom has permission to use your camera.

    • On computers, check Zoom’s Video settings and verify the correct camera is selected.
    • On mobile devices, check your device’s app permissions.

 

Audio Problems

  • Make sure you joined with audio enabled (the microphone icon should not have a red slash).
  • Confirm Zoom is allowed to access your microphone.

    • In Zoom’s Audio settings, test your speaker and microphone.
    • If one source isn’t working, choose a different audio device from the dropdown options.
