GoToMeeting Step by Step Guide on How to Join A Meeting If you have access to the internet by any device, (phone, tablet, computer) you can follow these instructions once you have received the unique link for a particular meeting. First time use At least 10 minutes before the meeting is due to start click on the link you have been sent for the meeting. The link will look like this, but there will be a different number depending on the meeting: https://global.gotomeeting.com/install/********* Subsequent meetings At least 5 minutes before the meeting is due to start click on the link you have been sent for the meeting. It will look like this, but the number will change. https://global.gotomeeting.com/join/********* In the meeting The host will issue some brief guidance at the start of each event. When you hover your mouse towards the bottom of the screen you will see icons representing your microphone and your video camera; they will either be on or off.
Mike on Mike off Camera on Camera off In a large group there can be a lot of background noise and distortion so at the beginning of a Church service for example, the host will ‘mute all’ to prevent background noise and distortion. To go from mute to unmute, camera on to camera off, then just click the icon. It’s easy to forget so if people are waving at you it’s probably because you have forgotten to unmute. If your camera is off there will be a symbol with your initials to represent you. This should be all you need to know to access meetings through your smart phone/tablet/computer. If for any reason you need an alternative then it is possible to join GoToMeeting events by dialling a unique telephone number and entering an access code (these will stated in every meeting invitation). If you use this method you will just be able to hear what is going on, rather than seeing and being able to participate more fully. Useful tips
