How to Enable Connect for Your Users
In the Zimbra Admin console,

- Right-click their account, select edit

There you can enable and disable the Connect option for your user's mailbox. You can also set available Zimbra Connect parameters such as the ability to save all chat history, enabling video chat instead of audio only, etc.
Troubleshooting
A good place to verify settings is found in the actual mailbox by proxying the account, then selecting the Connect tab and then clicking on the gear sprocket icon to view settings.
Under Meetings, you can enable/disable the microphone and camera. This will likely be a large percentage of problems for accounts to be able to access audio and video for Connect meetings. Simply click on "Enable microphone" and "Enable camera" to select the desired devices for meetings.
If the audio or video is not working, verify the correct device for the microphone and camera are selected, as that will likely be a large percentage of problems for end-users to be able to access audio and video for connect meetings. This is usually determined by the browser. Below are links for where to find those settings for common browsers.
