I have also been having this issue for about a month

Has anyone else ever experienced this? I have tried uninstalling, removing settings, restarting, reinstalling several times, but nothing seems to help.

The issue should not be related to my internet, because my laptop can stay connected to people normally, just not my PC. I'm not running any kind of VPN, and my time/timezone are set correctly.

I have not been flagged for commercial use and my connections aren't lasting anywhere near 5 minutes anyway. I'm sure that it disconnects in <1 minute

I really love this software. Please help.

The same here, never used any commercial license, just for personal use for less than 1 hour twice a month, both installation confirmed: Free license (non-commercial use only).

But starting on 13 March 2021 seemed to have given this error, last used was on 28 Feb. 2021 without any connection problems.

Both sides have re-installed the latest (same) version, to no avail, not even 30 seconds, closed the connection every time. When tried to connect, always received the following message:

Unable to connect.

Connection blocked after timeout.

Your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner, immediate reconnects are blocked. Please try later or upgrade your license.

Connections to this partner will be blocked until xx:xx.

Any idea ?

(Last laptop SW update was done recently a few days ago)

I'm also getting these problems lately, and Its strange. I've also got a free Teamviewer for personal use only.

Hello everybody.

As said, a message appeared today when I logged in to my remote PC. I always do back and forth from my student home in a city, to my parent's house in another city in the weekend. I generally connect to my remote PC on my student home to play with some games remotely, or just to organize some files and online classes at university. So my license is absolutely not violating the free-license terms. The problem is that I can't contact anyone at TeamViewer. They say, in the message, to contact them through a ticket, but I can't do that because it appears that only paid licenses have support through tickets. So, what should I do? Move TV to the trash and use another software?

Thanks.

I have the same issue.

Waiting for support team replay to this post

I have an issue after trying to connect one of my computers on my home, it shows and error attached, the app only allows me to connect for a minute and then it shows up the message

could you please help to advise to solve this issue

regards

franco_fz

in my case I understand where the problem lies.

When connecting from the mobile to the PC, I get a warning that a commercial version has been detected and therefore it will only work for 5 minutes.

The strange fact is that both the mobile app and the software in my pc are for non-commercial use.

Now how do I fix it?

Well what to say other than bye bye teamviewer

Hello **Third Party Product**:-))))))))))))))))))

Suddenly I am getting a timeout after 1 minute on one of my computers. Then I have to wait for another minute or two before I can log in again. I think it started after a Windows update (but I'm not sure). Is that a Windows issue, or is it because i have suddenly become a suspect? My login says that I have a free license.

Message from TeamViewer: ID has been reset from **Information removed as per Community Guidelines** to **Information removed as per Community Guidelines** but nothing has changed?

How long can it take before I see the new ID on my HP pavilion laptop?

Am I being too impatient?

Please some advice...

funkhelp

why 'timeout' always came up?

why i'm blocked?

im privatuser

there was no 'long' connection to a partner

ciprianmp

In my case, exactly the same thing happens when trying to remotely connect to my daughters desktop. Both on latest TeamViewer and with free accounts. Can someone fix it or tell us what is wrong lately with TV?

Hi there,

Best rfegards,

Same issue here. Wouldn't mind paying a small amount or even pay as you go. Trying to support my 94 year old mother and cannot afford the exorbitant monthly company fee. I need generally use it for about an hour or two a month if that and paying over $51 per month fee is not worth it.

Hi,

I have same issue for weeks now. Already contacted support team but no reply so far :-(

I don't know how to solve this issue :-(

@ Teamviewer support: Please fix this.

Hello,

I have been using TeamViewer for a non-commercial one for several years. I have rarely had any problems. But in one of the latest updates, I can no longer make a remote connection.

It does not give any particular error.

I have already removed and reinstalled the software, but could not fix the problem.

Thanks for the help tips

I rarely use TeamViewer except to support family and a few friends. All of a sudden I am getting a Sorry for interruption message stating that my connection is blocked due to very high activity level. Being that I rarely use it, I don't understand why I am blocked and why it states there is high activity level.

Is there anything I can do to get this corrected or just plan on ditching the Teamviewer product totally?

Hello

I use Teamviewer to connect to my computer that operates my telescope at my hobbyist observatory.

It is not commercial use or anything like that. I am a fan of Astronomy.

The session is cut in a few seconds. I have uninstalled, cleaned, reinstalled and still the same problem.

That I have to do?

I have used it for a long time and have never had a problem.

Best regards.

Hello @Andreas65498746546

Thank you for your post.

As mentioned in this older thread, is not possible to have a commercial account and private account on the same device.

When you log in with the commercial account, it marks that TeamViewer ID as a commercial device.

As it is a commercial device at that time, a free account cannot be used on the same device. This is why the free account times out when in use.

To resolve, the free account would need to be used on a separate device.

I hope this helps clarify.

Hi there,

I am using TeamViewer commercial and private. For private usage I have a free account.

Connecting to a computer with my free account via ID and Password starts the session as usual. But after some seconds - less than a minute - the session is ended by TeamViewer with the following dialog:

Translation:

This was a free session, sponsored by teamviewer... blabla.

I then try to reconnect but TeamViewer says...:

Translation:

Connection after timeout locked. Your license limit the maximum connection time. Reconnections are blocked. Next connection to this partner is possible ar 16:38.

I don't understand why this happens. I thought the free account has a timeout or 3 hours or so.

I hope someone can help :-)

Hello Community,

I am using a TeamViewer with a free license. tToday, my free sessions only last 1 minute.When I try to reconnect, I see:

"Connection blocked after timeout.

Your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner , immediate reconnects are blocked ....

I can see no message of suspect commercial use on my screen, do I have to submit for reset or is this something different from suspect of commercial use? I only use it for personal reasons.

Thank you

Hello Community,

I am using a TeamViewer with a free license for personal use.

Just like Mykola, my free sessions also last no longer than a minute. Upon establishing a new connection this message pops up :

"Connection blocked after a timeout.

Your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner, immediate reconnects are blocked ...

Do you what's happening here?

Best regards,
