Alex Tay 0 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I am having the same problem too! Even turning off the firewalls on both computers does not help. Link to post Share on other sites

Matthew Dykins 0 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I have a similar issue. I am trying to use Synergy Pro as a server on a macbook and client on a 64 bit windows 7. I get the timeout over and over. When I make the Windows 7 pc the server and the macbook the client it connects and works. I have both firewalls off. It worked fine for over a year, then I moved and switched from a comcast to a verizon router. That is the only difference (other than I upgraded to Synergy Pro, but it wasn't working with 1.6.3).

Edwin Beltran 0 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I am having the exact same issue, but, the server is my Windows PC. I have a Windows 8.1 Pro (Server) and my MBP Retina Mid-2012 OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 (Client), both system have the firewall turned off... They initially show signs of connection... the Server recognize the client and ask me where to put the screen, after that, nothing happens. The client keeps throwing timeout... I am using the latest 1.7.2 build. I need help debugging this... I have the Debug2 option, but the information seem not helpful to debug the connectivity issue. Link to post Share on other sites
