Hello.First of all, please bear with me. I'm a first time user, am NOT heavily tech savvy and it's possible Team Viewer might not be capable of serving my purpose.I have two laptops.1. My primary: A Macbook Air 2010 with OSX High Sierra 10.13.62. Mouse,Firdstly, you don't need an unattended password on the Mac unless you are going to control it from the Acer.It sounds to me like you are stuck in the installation. Are you sure you downloaded the full version of TeamViewer on the Mac?
Id restart the Mac, redownload the full TV version. The quit all programs including your webbrowser, then start the TV installer. You may need to look in the Download folder for an item named TeamViewer.dmg. Double click that icon then you will have the TV installer.When installing, skip the prt about unattened access passwords. You can always go back to that later.Mike. Scotty and mkofski,Thanx for the responses.On the contrary, I do have the software on the Macbook.I installed the app and the icon is on my deck.Here:I did use the online management console but only because I couldn't open it in the software.Now if I'm logged into the software on the Macbook, I am unsure and can find no option to either login or log out.I don't recall being asked to log in when the software opened but rather to create an unattended access password which doesn't go through because I am still asked to do so every time I open the software.
Mouse,Looks like you just need to get TeamViewer running on your Mac. Look ok the recent items option on the Apple menu. See if you have TeamViewer.app on there. If So, select that.
If now look in the Applications folder and start it from there. If you can't find it in the Applicatiosn menu, are you sure you installed the full TeamViewer app? Maybe you have the Quick support version installed. That version of TV will not allow you to connect to another computer.Do you see the TeamViewer icon on your Doc?
Is there a small gray dot next to it. The dot indicates that an application is running. In the picture you sent it looks like Twitter, Chrome and iTunes are running and Calendar is not.You'll need to get it running.
After that, you should b e able to log onto your account and see the Acer.After you gt it running on the Mac, you can enter the Acers' TV ID and password. There shoiuld be box at the top right of the TV window to type in the Acrers' ID.You don't need unattended access on the Mac, just on the Acer.If you are staill having trouble I would Download and reinstall TV making sure you have the full version of TeamViewer sownloaded.Mike.

Sounds like you are almost there.On the Acer TeamViewer needs to be running. On that machine you can set up a custom password (unattended access).
Once TV is running on the acer all you need it its TV user ID and passord. Say the user ID is 111 111 111 nd the password is 1234.On the Mac you type 111 111 111 in the partner ID box at the top and click the connect button. The return key will work also. After you do that you will be prompted for the password so you enter 1234 and press Return.That should get you there.
If you find that you don't really have TV installed on the Acer, repeate the process you used on the Mac and try the install again.Good luck.
