    Hey He keeps telling me that there is a problem with personal use, and I don't care. Why does he keep suspecting me? How do I fix the problem?

    I don't know why, my account is detected as "Comercial Use" when I am just connected to my brother pc for a fix a Sunday night..... 😅

    What can I do?

    Thank you.

    I have been a free Teamviewer user for over a decade supporting family and friends in their 70s & 80s, plus an aboriginal community group to whom I donate my time. I am in my 88th year. Over the years I have been terminated a number of times because I help too many people, suspected of profiting. No, I do not charge for my help of the elderly. Previously I have had the ability to have the Teamviewer help sessions restored. Access to support is generally denied, only for paid licenses. I notice standard membership is unviable in that it appears that there is a limit on those supported/helped, limited to 3. Additionally, it is not viable for me to pay the monthly fee for donated time.

    I am seeking to enable my ability to help others restored, again.

    i am trying to get a non-commercial reset on my free account. The form says to "generate and upload pdf" which i click but i dont get confirmation it has been send?? could it be the "add more ID"? i have only one ID, why does it keep asking for more (red lined box)... unless i fill that, it wont send...

    Hi,

    I tested a Team Viewer trial for commercial use years ago, customising it with logo etc. But found we didn't really have the use for.

    I now only use it to help friends and family in need, all done free of charge. However, the QuickSupport module seems to only give me 5 minutes. I get a notice saying something about "due to logo", but no logo is used anymore. It's just the default Team Viewer Quick Support module.

    How do i remove the 5 minute time limit?

    Thanks

    Normally everything works fine connecting to my desktop from my iPad. however this weekend i'm getting a error that disconnects me after about 30 seconds of being connected to my desktop.


    the error on the iPad is this

    Unable to connect

    A connection could not be established

    Connection blocked.

    you reached the maximum session duration to this teamviewer ID please try again later.

    Connectios to this teamviewer ID will be blocked until X time


    (there is a more info button)

    when i click on it, it's telling me i should upgrade my license.

    i'm connecting to a windows 10 system. no servers

    I'm trying to use TV to connect to my dad's computer and I am able to connect but after about 15-20 seconds it disconnects me claiming I timed out. If I try to reconnect it tells me that immediate reconnect is disabled and to try gain after a minute. I am using the free version but I am not getting a message saying I was flagged for commercial use or anything like that. If I wait a few minutes and try again I can connect no problem, but the same thing will happen. After about 15 seconds it says I timed out and can't immediately reconnect.

    I filled in the form using the ID number listed in my Teamviewer app. The reset form will not process because that ID is refused and a valid number is requested. Sorry I have no idea how to obtain any other valid number.

    I saw a note that I was warned. When and how? I am not aware of any warning; I was simply terminated.

    I have completed an account reset, following helpful assistance via Teamviewer. What happens next?

    Hi. I am using quick support with a friend. I helped he download the latest version of TeamViewerQS on her Win10 PC. When we start a session (she trying to share her screen with me), I get the error shown below. She had the full version installed previously, but I uninstalled that. How can we resolve this? Thanks.

    I would like to report the difficulty in accessing a computer at the university. I can only connect for a few seconds because there is apparently a problem with my license. I use the program to access a computer to collect some data at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, for research only. I am a Professor trying to do some GC analysis. I appreciate Teamviewer team for the comprehension to solve this issue.

  • Hi. I have a computer in my dorm in college and now I am home. I used to have access to my computer through teamviewer, but recently it started to show "there is a problem with the license" and immediately disconnects my connection. I am wondering what I could do with this?

    Hello,

    I've been operating a free license for a while now and have just been restricted based on some pattern.

    I'm in IT and my home/lab setup is pretty complex and could well look commercial but its simply not.

    Is there anyway to sort this out so I can keep using it?

    The product is good and something I have been recommending in my professional life.

    Thanks

    Andrew

    Usage pattern suggests you've been supporting others professionally. Vehemently disagree!

    Pls advise

    Hi,

    My name is Brian [Removed as Community Guidelines], and I have a TeamViewer account under this email address: [Removed as Community Guidelines].  It's the same email address that I am writing to you from today.

    I am getting an error when I attempt to use the computers on my Contacts list. The error message says, "We apologize for the interruption. It looks as if you're trying to support others professionally, and we can't allow this. Your usage of TeamViewer is being blocked."

    That's not so! I'm an astrophysicist, and I have multiple personal computers at multiple locations. Right now, I am at the coffee shop and I am trying to access the computer in my lab. But it is not letting me.

    Can you fix my account please? I am only using TeamViewer for personal use. Thank you.

    (P.S. The second picture shows a message that appears when I connect to one of my remote computers and then it disconnects after, like, 30 seconds, saying that my session has "timed out," and then it says connections to the partner will be blocked until 20:58.

    What rubbish! You know, times are hard and people are trying to pay rent and buy food and you're grubbing license money from free users.

    Regards,

    I am a teacher at a small nonprofit school for troubled teens that is a kind of juvenile detention so kids need to be closely monitored when on computers. I looked at professional licenses but they all seemed geared towards IT work, so I started using as personal use just to monitor, usually between 3 and 7 computers only at a time ( it's a small school with less than about 15 students so we'd never be using more than that ).

    I got a pop-up for 'suspected professional use' so my question is, does this use case require a professional license? The school is a small nonprofit and the administration is more likely to just not let kids use computers at all in class than to pay for a license I think, so I am hoping this is fine-- the purpose really is to just have one screen where kids' screens can be seen while they do school work. Please advise. Thanks!

    I am trying to connect to a pc i just bought. I have 3 laptops and 5 PCs that I work on with my wife including the one at my office. I tried to setup REMOTE CONTROL with the new PC and messed up on setting it up. Now my viewer says i have too many connections. How do I correct this?

    Thanks

    I have no idea why this message pop up. I'm a college student using this to do my research on lab's windows computer, and this message popup. Then, they block me from access and force me to by their product. How should I solve this? :( Or are there any similar software I can use? I don't know how to ssh windows computers...

    i got my free account limited despite iused it for non comercial purpose with my family members or friends. For other purposes i got my license from my workplace, who has licenses for 3 simultaneous calls and one belongs to me. I don't want to mix home computers with work computers, although I had my work computer on the list and maybe I didn't relogo accounts for some connections because I use several computers. generally i have 2 acounts work and private and dont know how to send request to unlock my free account again

    Your license limits the maximum sessions is claimed. But I don't have a license. I am a home user, using free teamviewer to support my dad with endless "PC" issues

    How to fix this please?

    Since a few days i'm getting a popup in the android app saying (in german)

    "Suspicion of commercial use"

    I can click "OK" and it still works, but this is ridiculous. I'm only using teamviewer to connect to my private PC. Maybe once a year to help the family out. No commercial use at all.

    How can i get rid of this?
