Joining a Conference

NOTE: If you are the owner of the conference, the confirmation dialog box also asks if you would like to disconnect all other users, effectively ending the conference.

7.Click Yes in the confirmation dialog. See&Share software exits.

Searching for a Conference

After you've connected to a See&Share server, you can either choose the conference you wish to join from the list, or search for a conference. You can search for conferences by name, owner, or any additional descriptive categories (if they're enabled by the See&Share server administrator).

NOTE: If the owner of a conference has chosen to require a password for entry, you must have the password before you can join.

Roles within a Conference

Participants can have one of three roles within a conference: owner, presenter, or participant.

NOTE: The conference's owner and presenter are clearly indicated in the participant list.

Owner: The conference's owner is the person who created the conference on the See&Share software server. The owner can adjust the conference settings and take over desktop sharing at any time. Owners can always draw on the desktop, even if the presenter has disabled these features for other participants. Owners can disconnect all users and end the conference.

Presenter: The presenter is the person who is currently sharing a desktop. The presenter can adjust the conference settings and draw on the desktop. Although the presenter can disable these features for other participants, the features always remain available to the conference's owner.

Participant: The participants in a conference can always see the shared desktop. However, participants can draw on the desktop only when the owner or presenter has enabled these features within the conference.
