Commercial use - Connection time out
Comments
-
Hello,
Sometimes last week between April 21st - 23rd, 2021 I tried connecting to my personal PC the same way I did the last few month but this time I get disconnected within 1 minute. I keep getting the message:
"Your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner, immediate reconnects are blocked. Please try later or upgrade your license"
When I use teamviewer for the same account on my mobile device connecting to the same PC I have no problems. I don't get kicked off or blocked.
Is there something on my PC in specific that I can check to fix this issue or is this something Teamviewer need to do to unblock me from using it on a PC?
Any information is appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I would like to know this as well the past few days this has been happening to me as well. A week or 2 ago I got flagged for commercial use, but got it cleared up, only to get flagged again the next day. They fixed the issue within a few hours, but now I only get about 30 seconds of use before it disconnects me and blocks me from reconnecting.

Maximum time? I don't see him mentioned anywhere, yet he tells me the session time is up.
I use the FREE license and connect to my other PCs at home while I'm away. At a certain point, everything freezes and I get this warning.
Obviously I don't use Teamviewer for commercial purposes, but only to order movies and photos that I send home to my NAS, via the laptop I use around; I don't know, I'm probably suspected of commercial use (but shouldn't I get a warning? Which obviously didn't reach me).
What can I do to stop my sessions from expiring? Thanks.

I already filled out the forms , reset my account, and still cannot log into my personal account. The message I placed earlier is not posted. I sent my feedback via email and called the customer service number. No luck addressing this issue. Teamviewer logs me out after one minute. Only the mobile version works but I can't type anything in mobile version. I need my laptop version to work. Hasn't been working since late last week.

I am not getting a commercial use suspected message (and am not using TV commercially). It works fine from any of my PCs running Windows 10, and a tablet running Android, but the time out disconnect happens when I use TV from my iPad. The same problem occurs when using TV on a MacBook running Mac OS X. The problem seemed to briefly resolve itself a week or two ago before reverting to the one minute disconnect behaviour.

I have completed the form that is at the link at the very top of this set of pages but I cannot "generate the PDF". to get the completed form to "Go"! Is this a temporary problem?

I'm a retiree (82 yrs old) who personally has used the Free TV application for many years and with multiple friends, all personal use only. Never any money changing hands for the help. All of a sudden, my connections were being terminated and my research pointed to suspicious Commercial use. Further efforts found a license reset process. Followed the procedure and received email saying the reset was successfully accomplished but it contained a warning that since two computers were always involved in the TV process, some of the other computers might have to go through the same process. This seems very cumbersome and impractical. Shouldn't we just have the users experiencing problems just uninstall their Free versions and reinstall a fresh new Free version? Something tells me this will not work? Someone, please advise.

Hi,
I have used Team Viewer for months for academic use. I use it for university works, and I have never had problems with it., but this morning, each time I try to connect, it blocks my conexion in less than one minute and gives me a message in which it says that this is the maximum time that my license allows.
I don´t undertand what happens, I have the free license for non comercial use, and it is exactly the use that I give to it. What can I do?

Having exactly the same issue as described above. I have this as a literal lifeline to my 80 year old father who lives alone 5 hours away and in another county. During the pandemic this has and remains to be vital to sort his shopping and help him to retain some kind of social interaction via his computer. He is not tech competent and relies heavily on me and teamviewer. This has been massively impactful over the last couple of days. I maybe use this once a week to support him but sometimes more frequently. He is now struggling to use elements of his laptop and believes that he has broken something, knocking his tech confidence further. Disappointed with the companies lack of response or assistance.

I "got promoted to Neutron" for submitting a request to reset my free account... I don't need badges, I need to use my free account.
Has anyone experienced repeatedly having their account suspected of being used not for personal stuff and having had to beg for a check over and over?
Such a pity T-V is not even addressing requests in person... looks like their focus is on having everyone to switch to paid accounts, but thankfully there are alternatives out there.

I am trying to control another computer in my house via Teamviewer. As far as I know, I checked the box for the free version on both computers, but now every time I connect it disconnects after a few seconds and won't let me reconnect for a period of time.
Notably I have NOT ever gotten messages about "suspected commercial use" like other posts about this problem suggest.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling on both computers but that has not solved the problem.
Please help. I will have to abandon TeamViewer altogether if there is no solution.

Is Teamviewer giving up on Free Non-Commercial use?. I have been flagged for suspicion of Commercial Use 3 times and have been reactivated each time.
Today, I am no longer getting a warning of Commercial Use, I just get kicked out of a session after 1-2 min and can’t log back in for increasing times. Nothing about my use should raise red flags. I am a surgeon working in Maryland doing Cancer Research… My father is 86 years old and lives alone in Florida. I am my Father’s IT support. Teamviewer is welcome to review my logs… even watch me live. NOTHING about what I am doing should be suspicious for Commercial use.
After getting kicked off of Teamviewer 3 times in the past 2 years, I use it as little as possible. I try to talk him through simple fixes over the phone---to avoid getting banned. Even that has not been effective.
I recognize they are not making money off of me, but I WAS their biggest word of mouth advertiser. I have used their service for years helping my father and have raved about the company. Never a problem…—at least until last year. If Teamviewer does not want to support the free non-commercial use—then just end the program. Having it unreliable only makes their service look bad.
If I have to find another Free service, I will. It will be a steep learning curve for my dad, but never knowing if Teamviewer is going to get mad and kick me off is making helping him harder than it should be. Sorry if I do not sound like I appreciate their free service—I really do and I started to rely on it. Having it hit or miss makes life difficult.

I just received an email from TeamViewer this morning that my TV ID was reset for private use, yet the ID they provided is NOT my ID. Plus I submitted two IDs, as it clearly shows on the PDF I signed an uploaded. I tried both of my TeamViewer IDs connecting to the safest person I know, my mom's PC, and I still got disconnected after 1 minute with the message "Your TeamViewer session has timed out and will be closed."
I'm not sure how to resolve this since TeamViewer does not seem to allow their free users any direct way to communicate with their support team. It's crazy that I can't reply to them to let them know of this mistake. I'm appreciative that they processed my claim quickly and reset my ID, but I should be able to talk with some one for simple reasons as this issue.
Any suggestions?

I have used the free version of TV to support my elderly relatives in the UK for many years, I have recently retired to Spain and I used it as normal yesterday, but today I got disconnected straight away and then refused access for longer and longer periods of time.
Seems like this is very common, 263 pages of posts, please what do I have to do to get my access to my pc illiterate family members PCs?

hello everyone, I use teamviewer for private purposes often to connect from the outside to my computer ... from today without having done anything the sessions last me at most one minute and it tells me that it is because of my plan ... they have made any changes or did it all break down?

Ive been having the same issue. i use TV to connect to my home media server(ubunutu) and if I leave the sessions up but switch to say firefox to read something about what im doing it kicks me out and then just keeps changing the timer on when I can reconnect again.
Its just home use so there its totally not worth 50/month license

the strange thing is that it never did ... and now it does even if I stay in the same window. The strangest thing is that if I log in from the phone (with the same account) it doesn't give any problems

I'm trying to get support for using TV non-commercial and I'm on a page titled 'Reset Management'. It's asking for my TeamViewer ID and an explanation of my problem. My ID is uhclem. Has been uhclem for many years. When I fill in the info and click 'Generate PDF' I get an error message that says 'TeamViewer ID should not be empty, less than 8 or more than 11 digits only.'
Can anyone help?

Hello, I'm very frustrated as I sometimes connect to a family friends computer. He is 80 years old and partially sighted. He uses his computer a lot, but if it goes wrong he always comes to me to fix it. I can normally do this using team viewer and can get the problem sorted fast. It seems at the moment it keeps ending my session saying that this session was ending as this is a business IP address. Both mine and his are private broadband accounts.
Can someone please tell me why this would happen. My friend is now without a computer until I can physically go to his house and sort the problem.
Many thanks
Ian Davis
