Commercial use - Connection time out
Comments
-
I have been using TeamViewer for many years to help family & friends out, but suddenly a few days ago, it started saying commercial use detected. I have never used TeamViewer for anything commercial. I found a reset request form & when I submitted it, two days passed & I got an email saying my account had been reset. When I tried using TeamViewer, I got the same message, so I checked all the information I had given & it was all correct. The only option it gave was to retry by doing the process again. At this point I have done the process over 5-6 times & I keep on getting the message, Commercial use detected & the connection timing out after a minute. I do not know what to do at this point. Has anyone had this before?

Please, how can we use the non-commercial license again? Recently, the program started telling me that your license only supports a certain session duration. I have only 6 PCs added in the TeamViewer Management Console, and when connected to each of them, the program will disconnect me after a few seconds. I want to use a non-commercial license to connect a PC to a friend and family.
thank you

I mainly use TeamViewer to connect to my media player pc. My usage of this software has not changed and this is the second time it has been locked due to false detection of commercial use.
I need it unblocked !
Many other people must be getting falsely blocked as I am again.

For over 7 months and submitting 4 forms to reactivate my account because I am 65 years old and did not want to travel up 12 stairs to the basement computer (personal computers) no COMMERCIAL USE, recent back surgery among others due to a car accident, thru no fault of mine, and still I can not log on without the same message "Commercial Use It appears TeamViewer is being used in a commercial environment".
There is no commercial environment when I have been on disability for many years and enjoy using the internet without climbing up and downstairs to my basement. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT ELSE I CAN DO TO GET REACTIVATED, AS THEY HAVE STATED 4 TIMES. Soon it will be eight months and I am going back in again for back surgery. HELP😣 PLEASE😪 Is this happening to you?

I've been using teamviewer for years. Lately when using on Windows, my connection timesout after a minute or less however on a MAC it does not timeout even though it is the same free account. I tried various fixes but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

I assume that you have provided, on the RESET MANAGEMENT form, ALL of the Teamviewer ID's that you connect to. Therefore I can't help but wonder if there is something that is triggering the flagging of your account. Have you scrolled back in this thread a month or two to find any helpful hints? Did you read the first message in this thread along with the Blog that is mentioned in the first message? Some things I've learned that can trigger the flag is connecting to or from a work network system. Connecting to church, personal interest clubs (fishing, ham radio, etc), volunteer organizations...basically anything that is not personal at home connections. It has also been mentioned above that if you have a video conferencing program installed on your device, that may trigger the flag. If you can't find any helpful hints above in this thread, maybe it is a good time to start searching for another free provider. I found one that I have configured as a backup for me.

Dear community,
I've submitted the declaration for personal use of my TeamViewer account three times...
I received emails from the TeamViewer team two times that indicated my IDs had been reactivated, but I still failed to connect to my remote device. I submitted the declaration the 3rd time on June 1st, 2021, but I have not received the response and the reset webpage (https://www.teamviewer.com/en/reset-management/) still showed that my request is pending.
A message showed "Connection blocked after timeout. Your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner, immediate reconnects are blocked."
I would appreciate if any of you can provide insight or suggestion of how to solve this issue...
Thank you,
Samantha

Hello,
I'm sure everyone is sick of these questions, but I've been trying to re-activate my PC for remote use for the past 2 months.
I have sent two requests to remove the flag for commercial use and both were granted, in one I thought listing my account is enough so the computers under it will be un-flagged, the second time I listed all IDs I use, but I still can't access my computer without timing out.
Is there anything to do here, or TeamViewer support is just the way it is and I should move on to greener pastures?

LIkewise, I have been advised on a few occasions that my IDs have been reset and service restored. Most times this has been proven false by not being able to connect for more than a minute or so between laptop and desktop. I did two weeks ago believe TV had cracked the problem, I had bilateral communication between them. However, just yesterday I entered the the TIMEOUT BLOCK zone once more.
Just WTH is going on with TV algorithms to propagate this misery for users who are "playing fair".

Hi.
Hi. I have been using free option system for a good few months now, especially over covid lockdowns. I only use it to connect to my dad's laptop, so i can help him to log in, to watch/stream football games, etc. My dad is an 88 year old OAP, with severe memory issues and can struggle with password logins etc, so this has been a brilliant tool for us. I even put a review on trust piolet saying this. I have and would never use it for any commercial use. I recently got a new laptop, but everything worked fine until I 'upgraded to latest version' the other night. it then locked me out on a timer, but every time I went back, it just moved the time on again. Tried again tonight, but it still wouldn't work.
I have tried the suggested form, but when I complete it, nothing happens when I press 'crate PDF', so can't get any further than that.
I don't know what I've done to make it think I'm breaking the rules, but I'm honestly not and hope you can help me with this. Cheers.

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!

This is not serious, three times that I request that my computers be reset, three times that you tell me that it is done and three times that they are blocked. What's going on ?

My teamviewer free version keeps giving me a message "Connection blocked after timeout" .
I reached out to support once and sent a form in that I wasn't using my license for commercial use. I received an email that it had been resolved but it didn't.
I tried uninstalling teamviewer and its settings on both of my computers and reinstalled. Same result.
I then did the same thing and created another account, again with fresh installs. Same result.
Is there anything I can do to restore the functionality of the free version or am I at a point that I should look for other software?

I'm having the exact same issue. I also wasn't using it for commercial use and was told the restriction had been removed.

Yes, I have the exactly same problem. For computer where I'm connecting to I asked for ID unblocking for 3 times. I received positive answer for all 3 request but connection to this computer is still blocked (Your TeamViewer session has timed out and will be closed). My ID is OK because I don't have problem to connect to another computers.
Please could somebody from TeamViewer company fix this issue?
Thanks.

This suddenly began happening yesterday. After connecting successfully, TeamViewer (ver. 15.18.5) times out after 2 or 3 minutes. Please note that this is NOT related to commercial use. The first time I attempt to reconnect, I receive the following message:
I get the same message whether I attempt to reconnect immediately or 30 minutes later (the "blocked until ... " time is always 2 mins after my first reconnect attempt).
Can someone please assist? Thank you.

I am having the same issue. I am trying to support my 95 year old father and Teamviewer is literally his lifeline. Now it lets me login for about 90 seconds and then just disconnects. When I try to re-connect it says I've breached some time limit and can't reonnect until [current time plus 1 minute]. So I wait until [current time + 2 minutes] but get the same error message but with [current time plus 1 minute] again. So this time I wait until [current time plus 3 minutes] and so the loop goes. If I wait an hour it does let me log back in but only for another 90 seconds before terminating the connection.
Something is seriously wrong and it has only started happening for me in the last week or so - I've never seen this before and I've been using TeamViewer virtually since it was released.

I am trying to reset my computers from being flagged as "Commercial User". I tried to populate 2 computers (this one and the one that I am commenting to) but only one machine populated. When I tried to complete another form, the company stated that I already submitted a form and I have to wait 24-48 hours. Any ideas?

I help my blind mother navigate her computer. Why is this counted as commercial use?

Good day. Recently, there has been a report of suspicion of commercial use. But I didn't do anything like that. What should I do to get my status canceled?
with respect

I only use the program once in a while, not for business.

Good morning,
My name is Jerzy Pogrzeże and I am a PhD student. Currently, I was using your program for teaching purposes, to be able to remotely check the progress of my analyzes on computers in my Department, which greatly facilitated and allowed me to save my time. For some time, the program doesn't allow me access anymore.
Therefore, I would like to ask for a possible unlocking of access to the free version of the thresholds for teaching purposes, so that I can continue my research work.
Have a nice day.
Yours faithfully
Jerzy Pognec, MSc
