Start by checking wether the Zoom client is already installed on your computer. If you have used Zoom earlier, this may be the case. If it is not installed, you need to download the software. An UiB computer (PC or MAC) can download the software from the UiB Software Center.


How to install Zoom from the Software Center (PC | Mac)

Windows

Check whether you already have the Zoom program installed by clicking the Windows-key on your keyboard and search for "Zoom".

After completing installation, you will find the software in "Programs" or in your Applications-folder.

Private computer

You can also download and install the software from [https://zoom.us/download#client_4meeting

the Zoom website]. 


When the program is installed, you may start it by logging in to MittUiB or by logging in directly to Zoom.

Note

If you already have a private/free Zoom account registered at your UiB email address: Log out of the free Zoom account and then sign in again. You will now be asked if you want to merge your accounts. Click "yes". Zoom will now also work in Mitt UiB.

'To schedule Zoom meetings from the Outlook calendar, you must also install Zoom Outlook Plugin.'
