Commercial use - Connection time out
Comments

If you are getting this nag screen, then TV should work OK once you're past it. I didn't realize that at first, and thought I was still locked out (This is from V13)

I think there is a real benefit to TV from free use - a 'herd' effect, like herd immunity. TV is an expensive product, and will have a limited base of paid users. By having a large pool of free users, they can raise awareness of their product at little cost to themselves. TV is, after all, an excellent product, and with a large free client base, they get talked about and recommended in a wide array of online forums and review sites, something they wouldn't achieve as a specialized product with a limited, albeit well-heeled, client base.

Hi All, so I use TeamViewer at home, strictly to access my media server so that I dont need to have 2 monitors/mouse/keyboard on my desk. Last summer, my account was flagged as a commercial user. I went through all the steps, it took almost 4 months, ending with me sending in a signed afidavit swearinfg that this was for personal use. It worked for 3 months, now, I go to use it today, and it is again flagged. Help???

Hi friends,
Will there be a notification to inform you that your account was unlocked ? I've submitted the ticket last week but no any response so far :-(

No notification in my experience - it just suddenly works.
However, it is very clear TV has no interest in supporting personal use ... take a hint, find an alternative.

Agreed, it sounds like they are blocking the users to use it and making tricks to block the users. That's sad.

I’ve been using TV for about 10 yrs on 5 personal computers and 1 laptop. Recently laptop was blocked (determined to used for commercial use) I’m retired and only use this device to help spouse and mom with their computer issues. How do I get laptop reinstated as non-commercial.0

Dear reader(s),
Since 2 days I experience connection issues to my computers at home. Connections times-out after about 30 seconds and reconnecting is not possible due to restrictions.When I try to connect to another computer, a message pops up with the message: (translated) "Teamviewer is used commercial by you or your connected partner. Your session will end in a few minutes. The free version of Teamviewer is for personal use only"
I only use the application for private use and exclusively with my own desktops (desktops, media pc's and homeserver). I never used this for commercial matters and i am pretty supprised by this message as I use Teamviewer for this purpose for a long time now.
The only thing I can imagine is that I connected a few times from outside the country. My partner is living in Qatar. I lived in Qatar for a few months and connected frequently to my server for updates and tranfering documents and files. I assume this is allowed and still 'personal use', but I maybe this caused the 'license issue'?
Is there somebody who can help me with this matter. As I do not have any license, I cannot submit a ticket. Looking forward to a reply. As I am using my homeserver exclusively remotely (no monitor or keyboard attached) this is pretty inconvinient.0 -

I have this issue too. I filled in a form and included a log. After about a week I received a reply to say I had been switched to personal. Nothing changed I am still unable to connect to our other family laptops and I can't support my family back in the UK anymore. I wrote back to report the problem had not been fixed but received no answer.
Why this sudden change? Why no information about why commercial usage might have been falsely be detected? If you're going to accuse someone of something it's only reasonable to provide a reason for the accusation!!
I filled in the form again including the IDs of all our laptops but again I have received no reply.
I've been using TeamViewer to support my family for years with no issues. Now I can't even connect to install an alternative on their PCs.

ME too!

Hi All,
May I know when will the limit being removed after ticket submitted?
I submitted the form two weeks ago, but still, the limit did not remove yet?

I apologize for the answer because it seems sarcarstic. The time to receive a response is somewhere between a few days and never.
Your most assured way to recover is to load a previous version (Is it version 9? Search this site.)

I've been using teamviewer for some years now. Connecting to my personal computer from work on my free time.
Recently, my free licence turned into commercial for no good reasons. I'm not able to use Teamviewer anymore. When I contact teamviewer for troubleshoot, they said I have NO CHOICE but to buy a licence... Paying 600$CAD /year for something I use 1 time per month without profit for personal use is out of questions.
I'm very disappointed with the turn the company has taken.
For everyone who is stuck with the new licence, I recommend **Third Party Product**. Work as well and free.
thank you
