Webex Join/Start Button is Grayed-Out (Resolved System Wide)

Users trying to join or begin a meeting may sometimes find that the Join or Start Meeting button is grayed out. This can be fixed by choosing the correct audio connection setting.

  1. If the button is grayed out, you are likely set to the "Call me" option. This feature is not supported by UConn.
    Note: "Call in" works with the UConn system.
