Tech Troubleshooting 

If my SOUND doesn’t work:

• Remember, there is a chat box. Type in there and let me know.

• If you know how, you can go to your settings and make sure it is not muted and mic and sound (speakers or headphones) are on. (I have a Mac so I usually go to the apple icon, click “system preferences” and click “sound.”)

• If it still doesn’t work, I may be available to call you and talk you through it.

• If not, Click “end meeting” or just X out of the meeting. Go back to the link I sent you to get into the class and click it again.

• When you come back into the room, make sure you click “join audio” if prompted. Also, recheck to see if the icon of the mic has the red line through it. If it does, click it to Unmute.

• If that still doesn’t work, restart your computer or device and try one last time.

 If my VIDEO doesn’t work:

• Look to see if your camera looks to be on- usually it has a red light. If not, your camera is probably not on.

• Click “end meeting” or just X out of the meeting. Go back to the link I sent you to get into the class and click it again.
