If no prompt from your browser appears asking you to allow camera and microphone access during the system check or a video call, it's almost always a previously saved setting — not a MeetOne issue.

If the problem happens in several browsers at once (e.g. Chrome and Safari), it's usually a setting in your operating system, not the browser.

Reset the permission in your browser

If you clicked "Block" at some point in the past, the browser won't ask again. Here's how to reset it:

Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge: 1. Open the MeetOne page and click the lock icon next to the address bar. 2. Select "Site settings". 3. Set Camera and Microphone to "Ask" or "Allow". 4. Reload the page.

Safari: 1. Menu Safari → Settings → Websites. 2. Select "Camera" on the left and set it to "Ask" or "Allow" for the MeetOne site. 3. Repeat the step for "Microphone".

Firefox: 1. Click the lock icon in the address bar. 2. Click the X next to "Camera" and "Microphone" to remove an existing block. 3. Reload the page.

Check access in system settings (Mac)

On a Mac, your browser first needs permission from the operating system before it can access the camera and microphone at all.

  1. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Camera.
  2. Make sure the toggle next to your browser is enabled.
  3. Repeat the step under "Microphone".
  4. Restart your browser afterwards so the change takes effect.

Check access in Windows settings

  1. Open Settings (Windows key + I) → Privacy & security → Camera.
  2. Make sure camera access and app access are enabled.
  3. Repeat the step under "Microphone".

Managed work or school devices

If you're using a device managed by your employer, school, or another organization, its IT department may have centrally blocked camera and microphone access. In that case, you often can't change the settings above yourself.

  • Ask your IT department to allow camera and microphone access for your browser.
  • Use a personal device for the appointment if possible.

Then run the system check again to confirm the prompt now appears.
