Teams pulls up main window after switching application windows during a meeting
I hope I can explain this properly, please let me know if it isn't clear. OS: macOS Sonoma Teams version: 24277.3502.3161.3007 When I am in a Teams call, I will often need to temporarily switch windows to Chrome or another application. When I tab back to the Teams call, the Main Teams window will pop up on top of the call, which requires me to minimize it in order to view the call window. I haven't been able to find a setting that addresses this specifically. Simplified steps: Join a Teams call from the the primary Teams window or Outlook calendar Switch applications to something else - Slack, Chrome, etc. Click the Teams icon in the dock The Teams call will take focus The Teams main window automatically pops up overlays the call, hiding it Thanks in advance for your help and please let me know if there is anything I can clarify.
Any meeting extensions suggestions for Microsoft Teams?
Hey everyone. Which software can you recommend to enhance your Microsoft Teams meetings? There are plenty of apps in the store and I did go through a bunch of reviews but I would love some use-cases and input from the actual community. Any good apps for tracking goals and tasks? A solid whiteboard app? Fun trivia and engagement tools? Thank you all so much in advance!
Unable to Save Tab Configuration in Teams Meetings
Hello, Over the past few days, I have been unable to add any apps during a meeting in Microsoft Teams. I have tested this with multiple apps, and each time I receive the following message: “Unable to save {APPName} tab configuration.” I have attempted this both in the Teams desktop application and in the browser version, but the issue persists in both. When checking the browser’s developer tools (Network tab), I noticed that the related request consistently returns a 500 error code: https://teams.microsoft.com/api/chatsvc/emea/v1/threads/{XXX}/properties?name={XXX} { "errorCode": 500, "message": "{\"subCode\":\"TabOperationFailed\",\"details\":\"Initiator 8:orgid:{XXX} failed perform tab operation\",\"errorCode\":1500,\"errorSubCode\":null}", "standardizedError": { "errorCode": 1500, "errorSubCode": 1, "errorDescription": "TabOperationFailed-Initiator 8:orgid:{XXX} failed perform tab operation" } } Any assistance in resolving this would be greatly appreciated.RFI: Recurring Teams Meetings and Subsequent Attendee Access to Chat, Transcript and Recording
I'm hoping others may be able to provide some insight. I have a feeling Teams Meetings functionality may have changed since I was last asked this question. From memory only participants from the organisation who were included in the required and optional recipients list had access. I have been asked by a Meeting Organizer how they can restrict access to the meeting chat, transcript and recording following a meeting. There are situations in which guests who are 'dialled-in' during the meeting, or receive forwarded invitations (ie not a recipient) should not be able to see the chat, transcript and recording. We undertook an extensive meeting test exploring all attendee options, meeting options etc... EVERYONE appeared to have access to the chat, transcript and recording. Any clues on how to restrict access without the user having to manage permissions?
Feature request: "AFK" status whilst on call
We would like to use Microsoft Teams calls as a continuously open call for long periods of time whilst working remotely as a team. However the current inability to visually see on the call screen whether another attendee is at their keyboard, without everyone having their cameras on all the time (which eats a lot of bandwidth) limits our ability to do so. I would like the ability to have an "away from keyboard" status, similar to the "raise hand" status, that can be set by each attendee when they step away from their desk/keyboard to grab a drink or take a comfort break. This could either be implemented by: adding a new group in which "raise hand" is one option, and "step away" is another adding a new option along the tool bar specifically for "step away" The only way to do this currently is to create another meeting (with yourself) and join that meeting so that you appear 'on-hold' within the previous call. This is very tedious to implement for every attendee involved.Teams having very loud white noise when no one is speaking
Using Microsoft Teams in work meetings I have noticed a very loud white noise that only appears when no one is talking. I know it is not about microphones, because I have been in meetings where everyone were muted and were waiting for the meeting to start and the white noise just kept on buzzing. The white noise starts as gentle but gets louder and louder if no one is talking until it reaches its peak as a very loud buzzing. I have tried to search for answers but only one I found was about "Teams certified microphone" which I do not possess, but Teams is the only voice communication service to cause this noise so I'm not convinced it's a microphone issue. Help & solution greatly appreciated. - JonasChat window opens on top of meeting window when clicking on Teams icon in dock (MacOS)
When I'm on a Teams video call and I'm working on another app, if I click the Teams icon in the MacOS dock, it brings up the Teams chat window on top of the Teams video call window. So I have to minimise the chat window to see the video window. This is because there is a separate window for chats as for a video meeting (and yes I have checked my settings and I have selected that new chats and incoming notifications are opened in the main window, not a new separate window) I can't even resize the chat window so that even if it's on top it's small because of this window resizing bug. That would have been a nice workaround.
Teams users cannot sign in if using personal account
Anyone have any luck with this? Know of a work around? Anything know if this is a known issue and if a fix is on the way? Once again Microsoft Support has lived up to my expectations so I'm reaching out here. Create a meeting invite link and share with a bunch of people. When clicking on the link the user is presented with options to download Teams, use the web or open with the Teams App. This applies to the Teams App link. Users with business accounts, and users who join as guest work without issue. On the join meeting window there's a link to sign in for a better experience. Clicking this link show a signing in page either indefinitely or for a while and reverts back to the join meeting window. It appears that signing in to a Teams meeting with a personal account (Outlook.com, Gmail) simply is not supported. If this is the case I would expect a message to say this but I suspect this is a bug in Teams.
HELP! I teach kindergarten..
Hi! Teams newbie here! We will be using Teams this upcoming school year for when we have a weather related day. The biggest thing that scares me is that they have access on the bottom part of their iPads it has the section where - video, mute/unmute/, speaker icons. Is there a way to remove the speaker icon for attendees, so students cant mute the presenter? Is there a way to change in the settings or somewhere to turn off access for attendee's to not have access to change their background effect? Thank you for any help! signed a Very Nervous TeacherUsing Third-Party AI Notetaking Apps with Teams Meetings
Microsoft 365 Copilot is a great AI notetaking app for Teams meetings, but it's expensive. A range of cheaper options are available from other AI companies. Should Microsoft 365 tenants allow users to install these apps and access what goes on in Teams meetings? It could be a difficult decision. https://practical365.com/ai-notetaking-apps-teams/
