How to schedule recurring meeting in Connect Pro

I share a license with a couple other people and want us all to be able to see our meetings on the calendar so we don't inadvertantly schedule something at the same time.  I have a meeting that occurs every week for one hour.  Is there a setting during the "Create Meeting" phase that allows me to designate this as a recurring meeting?  Or do I have to create a new meeting every week?  And if I set the meeting to occur each week, will that show up on the calendar?

    There is no such thing as scheduling a meeting in Adobe Connect unlike other web conference solutions. Adobe Connect meetings are always available 24x7 and you can run as many meetings as your licensing allows....i.e. if you use concurrent licensing and you have 500 licenses then you can have 10 meetings with 50 people each or 100 meetings with 5 each. If using other licensing models, then you need to use your own calendaring software to control when people are using the resource. The Connect Server is always there and the Connect Rooms are always there ready to be launched anytime.

    So you should be fine unless your concurrent license amount is too low.

    Many customers will use their own scheduling software to show what meetings are active. They use a public calendar either through MS Outlook or IBM Lotus Notes and that calendar is viewable by everyone for public events.

    You mention you share a license with other people. Understand that is a violation of the software license terms. Under the Hosted license model, you are not permitted to share your license with other people. Youa re required to join the meeting yourself and are not permitted to "share the license". Please understand that if you desire multiple people to use the license they each need to own a license. Sharing is not permitted under the terms of the contract. You might be better off moving to the concurrency model of licensing and you will need to discuss that option with your reseller or Adobe Sales rep. If I can assist, please let me know.
