    Hi guys, I have opened a ticket at TV -no response(since 2months).

    I have the same problem that "Connection blocked after a timeout" as everybody else. Don't be misslead by the topic, they merged to old.


    The problem started around mid of February this year and still not fixed. I think this will never be solved for free users.

    Luckily i have 2 remote control solutions, so I ditched TV.


    Good luck to you all.

    I have the same problems as others here.

    I am retired and no income but my pension. I have one laptop at home and an old PC at my sommer cottage 300 km away. I have been using TV to check the cameras connected to that remote PC.

    But now I am blocked.

    I have tried to send a request to unblock me but the process "Generate PDF fails". Click the button and nothing happens.

    I will now start using Microsoft Remote Desktop over peer-to-peer VPN between my two houses.

    TV licenses are too expensive for private use.

    Goodbye

    Dear Sirs

    I'd like to claim that my TeamViewer account is suspected as Commercial, however I'm using it only to access a couple of my own devices and my parents' PCs. I can prove it by providing all the necessary data about each device. Waiting for your comments. Thank You!

    All devices are personal and are located in the same city

    I accept,that some king of reason,my personal account switch into business....

    But can explain,why i can use this program only 1 minute,after 10 minute i cannot?

    If i would like reconnect:

    You need wait 1 more minute.

    1 more minute later,i need still wait 1 more minute and 10-20 minutes.

    I connect again,again 1 minute.

    And again 10-20 minutes waiting.

    That mean ~1minute using.10-20 minutes waiting!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is usetless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi guys, my name is Nikita an I’m a it-enthusiast.

    Currently I have a tiny homelab setup and I’m using TeamViewer to connect to some of these machines from time to time. Also, I sometimes use it to help someone from my or my gf’s family with it stuff. Today I’ve got the message that I have reached the maximum duration of connections and that seems to be the way of TeamViewer to say that they think I’m using the software commercially.. Is there any way to reset that or contact them? Opening a ticket is only possible with a premium license…

    Best regards from Germany

    Hello, for some reason my free license has been flagged as "Commercial use"... Even when at most I use it maybe once a month... Business must be great right ? 30 min of connection once every month is enough to make a living...

    Anyway, moving on. I tried following the reset procedure to get that flag off my ID, but I was quite surprised that I need to provide a lot of personnal data as well as my signature... And it is asked of me to print the give document, sign it then scan and send it...

    So a question, what if I don't have a printer/scanner ? Am I locked out of the tool just because of some disfunction in the review process even when I'm not doing any commercial usage ?

    Hi,

    I recently got this message on my teamviewer.

    I then filled out the declaration for personal use form.

    https://www.teamviewer.com/en/reset-management/

    I received an email confirming that I was using it for personal use and my block would be lifted.

    It is now a week later and I am still blocked from my account.

    I have attempted to re-submit but I have this window on the reset page.

    Can I have any help with this?


    Thanks

    Hi,

    I'm using TeamViever just for personal purposes, however, I can't connect to my home PC. I did connected to a couple of my friends devices to help them, but it was not related to any commercial things.

    Could you please check my ID **Do Not Post TeamViewer IDs** and unblock it?


    Thank you.


    Kind regards,

    Dmitriy Nikitin

    I am fairly new to using TeamVIewer and recently the app has been timing me out with an error requesting I purchase a corporate license. I am using it personally and have friends who use it for free personally without any issue. Can someone please share how I can reset Teamviewer and start using it again?


    Thanks

    I have 27 partners in my list of computers. It is only friends and relativs. Some very old, 90-92 years, others are blind. I help them with Desktops, Laptops, Tablets and Phones.

    I also use Teamviewer in my local network to Raspberry Pi and my wife's Laptop and two Tablets.

    Question 1: What shall I tell my friends?

    Question 2: Why are you blocking my connections in the local network?

    Thank you, community, for your help!

    I'm using the Teamviewer non-commercial version (free for home use) to access a desktop computer in my home - while I travel. Been doing so for many months with no problem. Today, I tried to connect and got as far as the Windows login on the target computer and while I was typing in the password - Teamviewer disconnected telling me something about having been connected too long and that it suspected a commercial account (it is not). When I tried to get back in - it said I had to wait until such and such a time. I waited until after the stated time and tried again - it said (again) that I had to wait until such and such a time - I did and it still failed. So, I waited maybe an hour and, tried again. I got connected and got to the Windows login, but was disconnected again before I could even type the password and told that I was disconnected because I had been connected too long! How can I be connected too long when I can't even connect?! Please advise? How do I fix this remotely?

    I have a free license noncommercial account. I connect with a friend to help him with his PC. After approx. 10 minutes I receive a timeout message and am disconnected from his PC. Why is this happening?

    I use version 15.17.7

    I use the free personal version as I only use it to help family and friends (some who live in another city). Lately, it has started kicking me off after about 1 minute and it tells me my license limits the amount of time I'm allowed to connect. Can't do much in less than a minute.

    Is there some kind of setting I need to look at? Also, I downloaded and installed the 64 bit version today and it does the same thing.

    Thanks,

    Paul

    My name' s Maurizio, " bradipo" as a nick name.

    Sometimes I'm helping few friends with difficulties in the Country where I live (Dominican Republic). I've been using the free version of TeamViewer since a long time, when my father was still alive in Italy, helping him with his pc to staying in contact with me. There are 9 computers in my list, and 4 of them are not connected anymore since a long time...

    Tonight I was using TeamViewer to help my son (musician, living in China) updating his laptop, and getting it a little bit more organized. Unexpectedly, TeamViewer cut out the connection, telling me that I'm using its service as an enterprise and that I have to upgrade the version.

    Is there something I can do to keep on using TeamViewer as before, or this is just the unfair way of the TeamViewer Company, to announce that the non-commercial use license has ended?😏

    Thank you for your answer!

    Same issue, still waiting for a reply, Support by mail insist with the reset form I've already sent, on my profile is still "Your request has already been submitted and is pending further review. Thank you for your patience as we process your request." 😕


    Moved in a 271 pages discussion, dozen of people with the same problem everyday, doesn't sound good 🤐

    Hi I sent in a request management form about 5 days ago and all it says is under review?

    I really need to be able to connect to get some school work done. When will they review it?

    Is anybody else having this problem with Team Viewer no longer responding to queries or requests? They have been falsely accusing me of commercial use for some time now and timing me out after 30 seconds and when I query it they just ignore me whereas before I got a reply. I have followed the recommended steps for re-installing and re-setting but still get timed out immediately. Looks like I will have to use anothe software app that does the same.

    Same problem as others. I get thrown off my friend's computer after about a minute. If I try to get back on I am told that connection is blocked until a time that keeps increasing.


    My licence is shown as a free licence (which is correct). I do NOT get a message saying that commercial use is detected.


    My computer is a Mac running Big Sur 11.3.1. I never had any trouble until recently.
