    This is happening to me too. I connect to my home pc, then it closes and tells me I have to wait. When I try again it does the same thing.

    Well, I see we are all in this boat. I don't see TV either attempting a resolution or letting us know they are attempting a resolution. It is free, so I guess I am getting what I paid for, anyway.

    This is so frustrating and really not endearing me to TeamViewer.

    Before I continue. I only use Teamviewer to support my family that lives in a different country as me. I do not receive any compensation for helping them.

    Question:

    There are many posts on the internet mentioning that Teamviewer will detect connections over VPNs as commercial use. Currently I am using a well known VPN service that can be used to tunnel internet data through any country of choice (For privacy purposes). Teamviewer has not detected any connections over this VPN as commercial use. Neither has any of my friends ever reported that their Teamviewer has been marked for commercial use when connecting through one of these commonly used VPN services.

    In addition to the VPN software service I just mentioned, I want to install a second Free VPN program (Free for personal use up to 5 PCs) that will allow me to access my fathers PC via a fixed IP in the created VPN network so I can synchronize his personal files to me for backup purposes.

    How do I know if the second VPN program will be considered as commercial use, or if it will be treated as just another personal use VPN program like the first VPN package that I mentioned?

    Can someone please provide more detailed info as to what type of VPN is considered as commercial use and which type is considered as personal use?

    Hi,

    I'm not a company or anything, I'm just a dad who connects daily to my son's computer and teaches him! He is only 9 years old, and he's is struggling with his online schooling, so I have to connect daily to his computer and help him study because unfortunately, I don't live with him. I connected once to my daughter's computer at the same house, but it's always my son, every day. Now, TeamViewer closes after 1 minute and won't let me stay longer and also won't reconnect immediately. This is a disaster for me because my son needs me and all other remote software isn't that efficient. Please, can you lift this limitation? Thank You

    Same issue, no idea what this is about. I have not used my TeamViewer all week. Seems a little shady on Teamviewers side.

    How do you reset your Team Viewer ID for the free personal use version?

    I'm no longer able to connect to my computer at my other house.

    Hi Team,


    I support my uncle based in Sweden for he is an elderly person with not much computer awareness. Lately my support sessions are timing out within a minute and am unable to help his issues.

    Any idea how to get this sorted?

    I am also getting this timeout after 30 seconds and I also look after my 85 yr old mothers PC setting up Skype meeting with her brother in the UK. I am also becoming frustrated.

    Hello, TeamViewer?? Is anybody home!? Why is this STILL an issue??? Fix it, NOW. This is a MAJOR issue and you're asleep at the wheel

    **Third Party Product** is working, thankfully they actually offer something reliable

    Within the past couple of weeks, I had successfully helped a friend connect to their printer using TeamViewer to support them. Unfortunately today, when I tried to help my 86 year old parent remotely, I was nearly immediately kicked out of the session.

    Reading the boards, I'm seeing that many other users are having the same problem.

    I'm more than happy to purchase a license for personal use. However, the $610.80 per year for single user business is a bit expensive for personal use.

    Same here. Customer services has fallen apart of late. I only use it to look at another PC upstairs a couple of times a day at most and for just a few minutes. It keeps accusing me of commercial use and timing me out after a minute! I followed the instructions to re-instate my account and it was ok for a couple of weeks then reverted. I emailed Customer Service twice but no reply. They used to be really good at replying. What is going on Teamviewer?
