Sharing some Ways to Warm Up to Zoom.com from a friend's post...I trust it works (and have signed up at Zoom.us)

    1. Go to www.Zoom.us
    2. In the top right corner, click the blue "Sign Up, It’s Free" button
    3. Create an account by either entering your email address then clicking the "Sign Up" button OR click the links below to sign up with either Google or Facebook. It’s your choice.
    4. On the pop-up window, follow the prompts, then click "Sign Up"
    5. You will receive an email from Zoom, to activate your account. In the email, click the blue "Activate Account" button.
    6. This will take you to a new screen, where you will enter your name and create a password. Once you have entered it, click the blue "Activate" button.
    7. Skip the next step if you do not wish to invite others to join Zoom.
    8. Make note of your personal meeting url but this is NOT what you’ll be using to join a Divine Feminine Yoga call/meeting. You can use this personally for non-Divine Feminine Yoga meetings.
    9. You’ll need to download the software, i.e. the desktop app, to your computer or iPad (do NOT download to your phone) before joining our meeting. Click this link: https://zoom.us/support/download (the download will start automatically).
    10. Once the app is downloaded, follow the installer instructions to install on your computer.
    11. Once you have installed the app, you can save a shortcut to your desktop, start menu, or menu bar for easy access if you want. You can do this by right-clicking and selecting "save to desktop," "show in finder," or "create a shortcut."
    12. You can now access Zoom at any time, by clicking on the app and signing into your account.
    13. Open the app and sign into your account.
    14. ***IMPORTANT STEP for Zoom newbies*** Join the Zoom meeting 15 minutes before the class begins so that my assistant, Wendy, can help you get oriented with Zoom’s features. We want you to be able to get the most out of the class.
 
Instructions to join the circle once you’ve downloaded Zoom:
 
    1. Open your Zoom desktop app and then click the "Sign In" button. This way your name will appear and we will know who is on the call.
    2. Click this link:(Unique for each meeting, sometimes sent out in advance but often just before the meeting begins.)
    3. Then click the button that says, "Open zoom-us" when prompted.
    4. Then click the green button for "Join Audio Conference by Computer" when prompted.
