Are you experiencing trouble connecting with your partner using TeamViewer? Let's explore some common causes and effective solutions to help you resolve this issue quickly.

Recently, many TeamViewer users have encountered a common error message when trying to access a partner’s computer:

“It seems there might be a licensing problem with your connection partner. Connecting to this device requires a valid TeamViewer license for you or your connection partner.”

After receiving this message, you may be able to connect for a brief period (30 seconds to 1 minute) before being disconnected.

If you're using the free version of TeamViewer and have not purchased a license, this message likely appears because your TeamViewer account has been flagged for suspected commercial use.

When attempting to reconnect, you might receive the following message:

"Connection blocked after timeout.

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

Connection to this partner will be blocked until 09:06."

These messages indicate that your account has been restricted, most likely due to the suspicion that you're using TeamViewer for commercial purposes. This could happen if you're frequently connecting to multiple devices or engaging in activities that may be perceived as generating direct or indirect revenue.

What Should You Do Next?

Attempting to reconnect may seem pointless, as any new connection will likely be blocked again, requiring you to wait a considerable amount of time before attempting to connect again. Instead of continuing to try and face repeated disconnections, you can refer to some of the ways we have guided to fix the problem 'TeamViewer Connection Blocked After Timeout'
