Environment
Resolution
These instructions are written specifically for adjusting audio settings during an ongoing Zoom meeting.
- Confirm audio icon in bottom left toolbar is labeled Mute and does not display red slash.
- Click up arrow ( ^ ) next to audio icon.
- Click Audio Settings.
- In Speaker section, click Test Speaker. If sound is not heard, select a different speaker from drop-down menu or adjust volume.
- In Microphone section, observe green input level bar to confirm audio is detected.
- Select Test Mic.
- Speak into microphone, then click Stop Recording to play back audio. If audio is not heard, select a different microphone from drop-down menu or adjust input level.
- Select Automatically adjust microphone settings if automatic input adjustment is needed.
Note: If you are on a Mac and are still having difficulty accessing your built-in mic, check your operating system permissions to confirm that Zoom has access to the mic.
Note: If you are using Windows and are still having difficulty accessing your built-in mic, Windows has a privacy feature that may block Zoom from using the mic. Learn more about this feature and how to allow Zoom access to your mic.
