Attending Virtual Classes: Troubleshooting

**This page is not for those joining/hosting Live Classes via Zoom. You will know your class is via Zoom if, when you click the "Join" class button, you are redirected to a Zoom link**

Hey there! If you're reading this page, you've probably run into some type of permissions or access issue while attempting to join a Live Session on Somble. We've done our best below to guide you through quickly remediating any access issues so you can get right into your Live Session.

Basically... in order to successfully join a Live Session on Somble, the streaming software requires microphone and video permissions to the device you're joining from. While the way different browsers ask for these permissions can change, you should always press Allow when prompted for device permissions at the start of a session. If Deny, Block, or any other type of denial is selected for microphone or video permissions, then the browser won't let you join your Live Session. We've laid out some of the ways you can change these permissions to Allow if you've previously (or accidentally!) denied access.
