Confirm that your admin has turned on recording for Meet in the Google Admin console. Verify that you're using Meet on a computer. Recording is only available for the computer version. You can't record if you join only to present, such as from a laptop while already in a video conference room.

Do you need a Google account to use Google Meet? Yes, to host or schedule a Google Meet, you typically need a Google account. However, you can join a Google Meet meeting without a Google account if someone with a Google account creates the meeting and has enabled the “Anyone with the link can join” setting.

Check your router and ISP: If Google Meet isn't working, it could be a result of a poor internet connection and slow internet speeds. Try checking your ISP's website to see if there are expected slowdowns, double-check your router's status, and deal with these common Wi-Fi problems.

Anyone with a Google Account can create a video meeting, invite up to 100 participants, and meet for up to 60 minutes per meeting at no cost. For mobile calls and 1:1s, there's no time limit.
