    Hi @gideonse and @BenDice,

    Thank you for you message.

    If you think TeamViewer has mistakely marked your device usage and you would like to reset your TeamViewer ID, please fill in the form for reset request.

    Your "Reset Form" is BROKEN though.  It has been broken for WEEKS now.  And no one at TV seems willing and/or ABLE to fix the problem.

    You know, it may be "free" users having all these issues, but if the program, and it's so-called "support" structure is so broken, does not encourage people to buy a subscription for whatever extra/bonus features it might give us.


     

  • Hello! I have installed a free version of a software product, not long ago your program began to block in work giving me 5 minutes, with suspicion of commercial activity. but I do not do this. Please understand and unlock my devices. thanks.

  • Hola, 

    Estoy utilizando la versión 14 de teamviewer con licencia gratuita y funcionaba perfectamente, pero ahora cuando inicio una reunion, al cabo de un minuto se cierra la sesion y me sale el mensaje 

    "Su sesion de TeamViewer ha superado el tiempo de espera y va a finalizar".

    Entiendo que este mensaje no tiene nada que ver con el tema de la licencia, no dice nada de que sospecha que necesito una licencia comercial. Alguien podria decirme qué está pasando y como solucionarlo?

    Muchas gracias

    Mercè Pons

    Hola @Mercè ,

    gracias por tu comentario. ¡Bienvenida a la Comunidad!

    Hace un par de semanas sacamos una nueva versión (15). Para seguir usando la versión gratuita, tienes que actualizarla.

    Una vez actualizada en los dos dispositivos que quieres conectar, deberías de poder volver a usar TeamViewer con normalidad.

    Más información sobre cómo actualizar, aquí: Cómo actualizar TeamViewer , Cómo controlar un Mac con macOS 10.14 Mojave o superior 

    Espero que esa información, te permita volver a conectarte.

    Un saludo,
    Alena

    Timing out after 60 seconds.  Just upgraded to v15.  Message is: "Your TeamViewer sessioin has timed out and will be close."  No mention of suspected commercial use.  The only change is the upgrade.

    Bug?  Config issue?  

  • Ha! Same problem here, but the exact inverse! My laptop & desktop are also both on the same home network, and I get the same message. However, for me it happens when I connect from my home desktop to my home laptop, but not from my laptop to my desktop,or frin ny desktop to my Surface...

    I mean i get the desire to crack down, but this is rediculous, How can both coputers be on the same IP address (Gateway IP and Public IP,), as well as on the same subnet, but ona of them is somehow only one of them is on a comercial network? ITS THE SAME NETWORK!

  • Hola Alena,

    gracias por tu respuesta. Ya pensé que el problema talvez se solucionaría actualizando la versión y lo hice. De hecho, primero actualicé directamente a la versión 15 pero como continuaba con el problema  desinstalé el teamviewer, apagué la màquina, reinicié y volví a instalar la version 15. Pero continua el mensaje de que se supera el tiempo de espera de sesion. De hecho, cuando inicio la presentacion en el ordenador, se corta al cabo de un minuto dando este mensaje, sin que el segundo ordenador intervenga para nada.

    Alguna otra idea de cómo solucionarlo?

    Gracias

    Mercè

  • Congratulation !  Excellent move!

    This way TV will loose all home users and keep only the business ones... And maybe this is exactly what they want without assuming it publically.

    I gave up after 3 requests.  I took it off all my computers and am now using one that doesn't give me grief and I actually like it better.   I've been with team viewer for eons to help my sisters but sometimes change is a good thing.

    TV thinks I use it commercially, but he is wrong. I use it to swap between my computers and my family members, of which there are 5 and none of them are used for anything related to commerce. I am ready to provide any data to verify this circumstance. Of course, no one obliges TV to provide anyone with a free service, this is the decision of the company itself. But why the refusal of the service to motivate the wrong reasons. It also sounds insulting

  • I've been using Teamviewer now for years, I have it loaded on my 4 personal computers and I only ever remote between these 4 devices, for years. But today I went to remote into one and it says that TeamViewer will now close out you are using it commercially, but I am not. Because I am using the free version of TeamViewer, customer support won't even talk to me. Any suggestions or am I just s o l?

  •  I used Teamviewer to help my 93 year old father who recently went blind with ReadAloud articles and to help him "read" and respond to emails, and pay his online bills so this is a critically needed capability.  I have been unable to get support staff to reset my ID.  The support page says Teamviewer will get back to you in 7 business days but in my case I initially waited two weeks and after getting no response or change to my status,  I resbumitted the form. It's now approaching another 2 weeks so I'm actively looking at alternate capabilities as I've given up hope that they will ever respond and or honor their statement that TeamViewer is free for personal use. Given the number of times this appears as a forum issue, this is a continuing widespread problem and it's made worse by the lack of action taken by Teamviewer to correct their errors or even respond to  requests for ID resets.

  • Wow, thanks for letting me know and that **bleep**. I guess I should just forget about, uninstall it and switch to **Third Party Product** or one of the other dozen ones out there.[removed per Community Guidelines] Also, I think it is very nice you're helping your father out so much and I wish you both well.

  • hello,

    I can no longer use teamviewer because its says that i have used teamviewer for commercial use, but the problem is that is never used teamviewer for commercial use.

    Can you help me ?

    I have the same problem. I get the prompt:

    TeamViewer is being used commercially by you or your connection partner. Your session will terminate within minutes.

    I'm using TeamViewer to connect from my personal Windows 10 Home Laptop, to my personal Windows 10 Home desktop - both in the same room, on the same home router.

    I already requested an account investigation/reset once, which appeared to be successful (a few weeks ago) but I'm getting the same issue again.

     

     

     

  • Hola,

    El mensaje es esteteamviewer.png

    Gracias

     

  • every time I connect to the remote PC, after 5 minutes of use the connection is interrupted with the message "your session teamviewer has expired and will be closed".
    I tried to check the timeout options too but they are disabled.expired.png

  • Hi,

    I have five computers that are online and I use them myself. It's been one week since TeamViewer told me I'm using my account in a professional way and that I must buy a license.

    What can I do?

    Thank you in advance.

  • For some reason my account says its flagged as commercial use. When all I do is use it to connect to my home computer from my phone or while I am at work. Im not using it in a commercial environment or even using it to manage a personal server thats working with a paid service. What the heck Teamviewer? Ive used you for the last 10+ years with no issue. Why so judgy all of a sudden? I need someone from teamviewer to describe to me what they think commercially means.. Beacause I think there is a mixup here.

    I just got the same problem... I am using the app 10+ years now... I had the issue once but resolved as I could write them but now there is no clear way to submit a form to them...

    I have already supposedly had my account reset on November 14th.  I tried to help my senior friend 2 days later and receivied the "Commercial usse detected" message and couldn't even connect with her to help.

    They do not offer phone support for "FREE" users, so we are flying on our own... I am BEYOND frustrated at this point and am ready to ditch this now useless piece of junk software for something that will truly work for free so I can continue to help my friends and family who just happen to live far away from me.   

    I have been a major supporter of TeamViewer for years, and now it seems they do not want people using their software for free  since a major update that was released juat over a month ago.

    I also got the impression that they want to reduce the number of free users, but instead of introducing clear restrictions on the time of use, the number of computers, etc. partly accuse some users of violating the rules of use. ...

Could someone help me please this is making me struggling.

    I totally don't understand these 545 local sufferers.
    Once upon a time, there is an absolutely legal method for solving a problem.
    Moreover, it does not in any way affects the rights of the company Teamviewer and they cannot present any claims to you.
    All you need to do is change the hard disk serial number (the one you see when execute dir command) and MAC address of the network card of your computer. How to do this is easily searched on the Internet. In case you find it difficult, there is even a special application that do it for you and it also easy to find.

  • I find it amazing that so little is done about this. Their free service that they brag about is surelynow causing more loss of business than the reverse, and surely they would be better off by sunsetting out in the open, rather than using this forced and dishonest attrition.

    I use TV to manage my 91-year-old father's computer. I have logged into his computer about three or four times a year. I've connected to his computer twice through an ipad, once through my iphone (in both cases when I was traveling, which I do constantly) and two or three times through my home laptop. Yet my use was flagged as commercial. None of these computers are used for work--none of them. The networks on each end are home networks. I am not an IT professional and have no intention to become one. If the handful of times I've needed could in any universe be construed as commercial, then the word has no meaning.

    I have submitted the form once a couple of weeks ago and again today, with no response.

    But in the 15 minutes between my 30-second attempts to get my father's printer driver working again, I have time to add to the vast list of complaints just in this one thread.
