• When you cannot speak or hear the other person’s voice

→ The Zoom app may not be able to read your device’s microphone or speaker. Please be sure to test prior to taking a lesson. Click here for an automated test. In addition, if your microphone or speaker does not work properly, please uninstall the app, re-install it, and start up the app again. There is no need to sign up for a new account for this procedure. You can sign in with the account information you have already created.

When you do, you will be asked “Do you want to allow Zoom to have access to your microphone?” and “Do you want to give Zoom access to your camera?”. If you “Allow” these two, your microphone, speaker, and video will start up properly in Zoom.

• I forgot my Zoom password before the lesson

→ You can easily reset your Zoom password. Please visit the following page and follow the procedure to reset your password.
