Setting Account Preferences

You can use account preferences to set options for all members who use Live Meeting.

You can set the following account preferences:

• User preferences. These preferences control the time zone in which users are located.

• Default preferences. These preferences control the access to some meeting options that are set for all users when they first install the Live Meeting client.

You can override a member's user preferences by editing the corresponding membership. For more information, see Creating and Managing Memberships.

When you set default account preferences, the preferences you set apply only to new members. Changes that members make to their own preferences will override the default account preferences that you set.
