Contacts list vanished on all 4 computers

wasteofspace

I run an in-home network of 4 computers and also connect to my handicapped sons two computers about 200 ks away.

On my internal network 1 computer runs Linux, 2 run Windows 10, and 1 runs Windows 7. The contacts lists have vanished on all of them.

After adding his second computer yesterday, my contacts list vanished and has instead been replaced by his single new computer called Danny 2.

I have tried to make a new contacts list up, but so far I have been unable to do anything.

Have I done something wrong or what?

Thanks for your reply Ying.

The problem seems to have resolved itself.

I had to reboot my Linux computer for some other reason, and when I did, the contacts list on all four computers reappeared.

This is not good, because it means that if for some reason I lose my Linux computer, then I lose the information on all my computers.

Why would a problem on my linux computer (running the latest version of Kubuntu) affect the other computers as well?

Apart from that, the teamViewer software works great.

Hi @wasteofspace,

Thank you for posting.

Are you able to login your TeamViewer account on TeamViewer client? Can you kindly check on your TeamViewer client and login to the same TeamViewer account please. If possible, kindly provide a screenshot of TeamViewer client login tab and any possible error message too.

Kind regards,

Ying
