2. Use the Cisco Webex Meetings desktop App

If you are using a Windows or Mac computer, then WebEx will typically install a separate application which can make it easier to join future WebEx meetings.  This program is called “Cisco Webex Meetings” (which is not the same as “Webex Meetings” which is running when you are in an active meeting.)

Launch the Cisco Webex Meetings app – also called the Cisco Webex Start.app
When you select the meeting link in your e-mail, your browser may give you a Pop-Up message asking you to open the Cisco Webex app.




The Cisco Webex Meetings app stores your Participant Name.
You can edit your name by selecting the “Pencil” icon to make changes to your listed Name and Email address.


Reminder: Use the Join a Meeting field to enter the 9-digit Meeting Number, but do NOT “Sign In”
