A knowledge base article about How do I Install TeamViewer? provided by the UC Berkeley IT Service Hub - Knowledge Portal
TeamViewer is free software that can be used to collaborate with other people. It enables you to connect to a computer remotely or allow someone to connect to your computer remotely. You can install it and leave it on your computer for future use (Basic Installation), install it only to access your computer remotely, or install it for one time use (Run only (one time use)). The following instructions will show you how to install it for one time use.
1. Go to this website: https://www.teamviewer.com/en-us/index.aspx and click on the "Download TeamViewer " button to download TeamViewer.
2. Once downloaded double click on it to install.
2. When you get to the prompt below, be sure to install "Run only (one time use), and choose "Personal/Non-commercial use"
3. Once the application is installed you will see the Remote Control window. Under “Allow Remote Control” you will see an ID and Password as in the picture below. This is the ID and password that you can give someone else who also has TeamViewer, so they can access your computer.
4. If you want to access someone else's computer, your partner would have to install TeamViewer, then on your computer go to the Control Remote Computer side of the screen, and enter your partner’s ID. Be sure to choose the “Remote Control” radio button, then click the button “Connect to partner”. You will be prompted for your partner’s password. Once you enter it you will be connected to their computer.
