When there is no free computer
You may see "There's no free computer right now. Nothing was lost." The service limits how many computers are awake at once, and all of them are in use.
What to do
- Wait a few minutes. Computers free up when other work ends or they go to sleep.
- Open the employee's Computer tab, or send your request again. See Start or change an employee's computer.
- Nothing was lost, as the message says.
Team computers
On a team computer the limit is how many screens it can run. An employee that cannot get a screen waits in line and starts when one is free. See Share a computer between employees.
If it doesn't work
- If the message stays for a long time, report it. See Report a problem.
- If you opened the Computer tab and it says "Starting…" for more than 5 minutes, it stops waiting and shows the reason.
