Don't Forget! Update Your Zoom to Version 5.0 & Enable Permissions in Mac 10.15 Catalina

Update Software to Version 5.0 by May 30
Zoom recently released its software version 5.0 as part of its roadmap to upgrade security and encryption for all meetings. All staff needs to upgrade their Zoom app by May 30, 2020. Instructions on how to upgrade can be found in this document. Version 5.0 is also available for iOS, so staff who use Zoom on their agency-issued iPad would need to upgrade through Self Service on the iPad or through the App Store. Anyone using Zoom after May 30 will be forced to upgrade before joining a meeting. 

Enable Permissions for Zoom in New Operating System
MacOS 10.15 Catalina added some security settings, so after you upgrade your computer, you will need to re-enable those security permissions for Zoom. When opening Zoom the first time after your computer upgrade, you will be prompted to allow Zoom to use your camera, your microphone and to share screen. This support article walks you through how to update those permissions. If you have any questions, contact David Hammer., Multimedia Specialist.

If you have any questions about either of these items, contact David Hammer, Multimedia Specialist.
