Teamviewer on OS X

[glenimp617]

I've been a VERY happy Logmein user, but I'm a tight git so when they started charging for it, I jumped ship

If whatsapp can become a $19 Billion company whilst charging nothing, I ain't paying £20 or whatever to use logmein

anyway, I've installed team viewer and well.....it's a bit rubbish

I know my mac is on, it's on the network and team viewer is working....or it was an hour ago at least. When I try now, it says that my machine is not online

Power saving is on AC and disabled so I'm pretty sure it hasn't gone to sleep

should I just pay the £20

I've switched to Teamviewer since Logmein.. runs on all my equipment and haven't had an issue with the mac!

Must be a setting somewhere on mine

how come it worked this morning, but not now. Sounds like power savings, but I think they are off

I have had the same issue as the OP at random with TeamViewer under OSX with it randomly appearing to be offline (particularly after you connected and disconnected from it previously).

No power saving (the box in question is my Plex server so is on all the time) and I have no idea why it does it.

Yes, it does seem to happen after I have disconnected. If I come back to it a little later, it thinks it's offline
