Linda, if you haven't created an account with Zoom, it won't recognize your email address.

I believe you don't have to create an account to join a meeting. I believe all you need is the meeting link (provided below). I created an account to host a meeting.

But if you want to have a Zoom account (which may not be necessary), at https://zoom.us look for the button in the upper right that says "Sign up, it's free." Then you can create a new account, or sign in using your Google or Facebook credentials if you prefer.

Hi Mojo,

I tried signing in to Zoom and it asked for an email address.  I put in
mine, but it didn't work.  What do I use?

Thanks,
Linda

Hi all ... Jan and I are putting together a formal unit board meeting for next week. We're going to use Zoom teleconferencing.

I'm a little new to Zoom myself, so practicing is a good thing.

I know you generally have to install the Zoom app on a phone or computer. If you have a mic and camera, it will need permission to access them. It's probably good to do those things in advance of the meeting so you know they all work.

I've set up some practice meetings, one for tomorrow (Thursday) at 11:00 a.m. and again Friday at 11:00 a.m.

You can join early if you like, and we can just make sure everything works.

I'm still getting used to how to create the meetings and send invitations. If you use Google Calendars, I can invite you to the meeting there.

You should be able to get to the Thursday meeting from this link:

I set a password for the meeting of "7ntxx"

Since this is my first zoom meeting, if any of you see me do something obviously wrong, please let me know.
