@diamond aside from the Hide on Startup issue are you experiencing any other problems on Big Sur? I'm waiting to upgrade and Synergy support is the only thing holding me up. Thanks

Hello @nirvan You might want to try the following: Add or remove automatic items Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Users & Groups. Select your user account, then click Login Items at the top of the window. Do one of the following: Add a login item: Click the Add button below the list of items, select a document, folder, app, server, or other item, then click Add. Remove a login item: Select the name of the item you want to prevent from opening automatically, then click the Remove button below the list. Hide a login item: If you don’t want an item’s windows to be visible after login, select the Hide checkbox next to the item. Note: Hide does not apply to servers, which always appear in the Finder after login. Temporarily prevent items from opening automatically when you log in If you see the login window, press the Shift key while you click the Log In button, then release the Shift key when you see the Dock. If you don’t see the login window, restart your Mac, hold down the Shift key when you see the progress bar in the startup window, then release the Shift key after the desktop appears.

How can I set up Synergy in a multi-monitor setup where the second computer shares a monitor?

Hello @Sparky29 Yes, this is something that we are not supporting right now. -
Issue connecting client on wifi when server wired
Alexey Pilyaev replied to dimab0's topic in General Discussion
Hello, Can you please use server IP address instead of server name? -
@dr0p How does Logitech solve this? Do they have a dedicated software solution for this? I know there is a tool called Across Center which does connect a PC/Mac to iPads via Bluetooth to act as a mouse/keyboard but I think it is not maintained very well...

I have the same problem: Server Mac OS Catalina; Client Windows 10. Tried multiple Mices. Allways the wheel work on the server, but not on the client. Also tried additionally Mac OS Catalina as client (with the same Cataline Server from above) and the same issue occured. All other aspects (including key mappings) work fine. Version 1.12.2-1 and also 1.13 BETA. It smells like a Catalina / Mac OS Synergy Server issue. I am in contact with support.

I'm currently using a mac mini on Big Sur as my client server. I was just wondering if there's anyway to have it open on boot, so I do not have to connect a keyboard to login to the account.

Synergy 1.11 working on Big Sur?
USC155 replied to John Kenneth Fisher's topic in General Discussion
I'm using 1 pro on big sur on apple m1 chips and it works as both server and client and is very stable. -
That's too bad. I found the bugs on MS garage's app overtime to be significantly worse . It would do random things with my keyboard.

USC155 replied to SparkyTD's topic in General Discussion
This is basically not possible. Most users aren't going to modify the code. -

Krystian replied to SparkyTD's topic in General Discussion
Current version of synergy treats your virtual desktop as a single workspace. This is not possible and as far as I know there is no software that could do it. It is doable but you'd have to modify the synergy code. If you've got some coding background you could lookup SynergyCore on github and try to make it yourself. I'd however suggest using it's fork Barrier as a standpoint as it gives you encryption which is a paid premium feature in Synergy. -
@USC155 I was using Syngergy 1 for years but now I need to write code comments and documentation using non english accented characters and these are not working on Synergy 1 clients. The bug was first reported in 2002 and not fixed since then. These do work on Microsoft garage's Mouse without borders. Sadly I have little hope to see this bug fixed anytime soon.

Issues on client using scandinavian keymapping
Krystian replied to ABR1's topic in General Discussion
@MorpH The issue with different keymappings, altgr special characters etc. has been first reported in 2002 and wasn't fixed so if you need this functionality then find an alternative. I'm sure that if next release of synergy has more features than the alternatives it will win us back, but for the mean time there is no workaround for the bug. In case of just multiple Windows PCs i suggest using Microsoft's Mouse without borders. Works like a charm. -
Honestly, I started with the Microsoft garage system and it didn't work well for me and I've been using synergy 1 for several years now and it works great. I dabbled with logitech options and it also was not very reliable. Once you get it setup properly it's way better than the other tools that I've used. I know they are all about Synergy 2 and 3, but 1 works really well I like to pair mine with the logitech k780 and mx master 2 and then if the os security requires you to be directly in the system, you can quickly switch to direct control.

Yeah, I was also able to get it to work as a client and as as server mostly on an Apple Silicon device using Synergy 1 Pro. I tested it as a client first and then changed it to a server. My only issue with server was that the display grid is viewable, but I am not able to adjust devices from the grid display. I was able to switch to autoconfig though and add devices to the grid that way and just edit the names to arrange my screens the way that I like them, and I believe it should be possible to create a configuration file and not use the gui to edit this.

Thank you. This saved me a lot of headache today as I'm working from home.

I have the same issue with 2 windows 10 computers and Synergy 1 Pro. Have you making any progress at all on this or do I need to find another program for this?

How can I set up Synergy in a multi-monitor setup where the second computer shares a monitor?
SparkyTD posted a topic in General Discussion
I have 3 monitors arranged horizontally. All three are connected to my workstation. The middle monitor is also connected to another PC. I would like to configure Synergy so when the middle monitor's input is switched to the second PC, I can move my cursor through the left and right edges into the left/right monitors of my workstation. I simpler terms, basically I want to be able to seamlessly move my cursor across all three monitors when the 1st and 3rd monitors are connected to PC1 and the 2nd is connected to PC2. Is this possible in Synergy? -
Just an FYI, Synergy did work from my existing Catalina MacBook Pro (server) to my new M1 Air running Big Sur (client).

Thank you all for the above information. Pulling the different pieces from above together, I produced a list that worked for my Debian 10 system. I thought it might save some other Debian users time: dpkg-deb -R synergy_2.???_amd64.deb nameOfFolder cd nameOfFolder/ mv usr/lib/systemd/system/synergy.service usr/lib/systemd/system/synergy.service.dpkg-new cd .. && dpkg-deb -b nameOfFolder synergy2.deb apt --fix-broken install apt install g++ apt install qtcreator apt install qtdeclarative5-dev dpkg -i ./synergy2.deb What this does is: dpkg-deb -R ... unzip the .deb file into a folder. The ??? will be the version you downloaded. we use mv to rename the synergy.service file. Notice, we are renaming the one in the nameOfFolder directory and not in the system /usr/... directory. The cd .. line does two commands, changes directory and then builds a debian package using nameOfFolder as the package and saving it into synergy2.deb The bad install messed up the system a bit so we did the --fix-broken command. We installed packages that synergy requires. Finally the install worked on the synergy2.deb we had created.

Synergy 1.11 working on Big Sur?
Skylane replied to John Kenneth Fisher's topic in General Discussion
Daniel - Any idea when you will do testing? I'm not moving to Big Sur until I have more than anecdotal evidence that Synergy will work. I'm still running 1.10.3-stable, and rely on it every day! Can certainly update to newer Synergy if required. Thanks! -
Bump. This is the most important piece of software that it must support lol.
