Angela Zack Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 I've downloaded the latest version because 1.8.6 wasn't working (Windows Client didn't boot up on start, wouldn't connect unless I quit and restarted Mac Server). Unfortunately, Windows version (Synergy Pro) fails to connect to server (Synergy Basic) and I can't use the program at ALL anymore. I don't see where I can specify which version of Synergy to download; Basic or Pro. But it appears that Pro is automatic for Windows, and Basic is all there is for Mac. Is this the reason they don't talk to each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rucov Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I think I have the same problem. Since today after updating both my machines (windows as server and mac as client). I get the following at the server (Windows): [2017-01-25T09:57:03] INFO: OpenSSL 1.0.2 22 Jan 2015[2017-01-25T09:57:18] ERROR: ssl error occurred (system call failure) [2017-01-25T09:57:18] ERROR: eof violates ssl protocol [2017-01-25T09:57:18] ERROR: failed to accept secure socket [2017-01-25T09:57:18] INFO: client connection may not be secure I tried switching them around (mac as server and windows as client).

kyriakos louras Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Also having connectivity issues with this latest version. Mouse lags extremely when on my client computer.

Max Franz Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I got 1.8.7 working on my two Mac machines. I needed to remove the app, remove all associated config files, remove the SSL cert, and then re-install the app. After entering my pro license key into the app on both machines and unchecking "use SSL" and rechecking it (to make sure the cert was regenerated), everything seems to work OK.

Angela Zack Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Thanks, Max, but can you be more specific? Did you remove the app on both machines? Where do you go to remove the SSL cert? Where do you go to remove all config files? When I loaded the previous update, I was prompted for my license key into the app, but not on this version, which I found strange. And also strange is that when I download 1.8.7 Stable, on the Mac it is the basic version (not option otherwise, that I can see) and on the Windows (client) version it is the Pro version, again no option to choose.

Hector Gomez Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Buenas Amigos la solución a este problema radica en lo siguiente, no hay que desactivar el SSL hay que dar de alta la computadora como cliente en la maquina Servidor, en la maquina servidor en el icono configurar Servidor darle un click arrastrar la maquina cliente (ojo, no aparece con ningún nombre pero de todos maneras anexarlo después de anexarlo darle doble clic al icono y ahí ponerle el nombre de la pantalla cliente tal y como lo tienen en su computadora cliente aceptar y empezara a funcionar perfectamente el programa de Synergy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector Gomez Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Good Friends the solution to this problem lies in the following, you do not have to deactivate the SSL you have to register the computer as client in the machine Server, in the server machine in the icon configure Server give you a click drag the client machine (eye , It does not appear with any name but anyway attach it after attaching it double click the icon and there put the name of the client screen as they have it on their client computer accept and start working perfectly Synergy program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela Zack Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 I've been a Synergy user for 4+ years. My client computer gets configured every time I upgrade to the newest version. This is not the solution to the problem I'm having, unfortunately, since I configured it as usual as soon as I upgraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angela Zack Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 If anybody figures out what the steps are to clear this situation, please post. To iterate some of my questions: No Pro version for Mac shows up as an option to download, but Pro automatically downloaded for Windows. So I've got Pro on Windows trying to connect with Basic on Mac. Mac (Server) sees Windows (Client), but Windows Synergy times out trying to connect with Server (same error messages as others have posted).

Caleb Colby Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I'm getting the same issue. (pc win10 server and macbook air client) Getting the error: "failed to connect to server: Timed out" I've tried multiple times, but nothing. Tried to contact support. Also nothing. Still within 30 days so submitted a refund. If they can fix the issue I'll hang onto the software, but as it is, this is a bit sad. If they do provide me with a solution that works, I'll gladly post it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aislin Gerow Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I too have been having this same problem. I was contacted by support and told they will no longer be offering support to non-enterprise clients. They offered me a refund but I didn't take it because I was really hoping they would sort this out. I have not had a stable usable product since version 1.8.3! I'm throwing in the towel. I just downloaded a freeware app called ShareMouse and so far it works absolutely seamlessly in either direction. Makes me wonder why I stuck it out with Synergy for so long. I'm so sad. I even have a Synergy tee shirt! When this product worked, it was FANTASTIC. I'm sorry to see it die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela Zack Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 I also downloaded Sharemouse. It is a Symless (Synergy) product, so no need to lament! I'm back to one keyboard and mouse again. Whew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCheung Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Thanks Holmes, My problem is that the MAC Use SSL Encryption is uncheck and the PC had Use SSL Encryption check.

Joeyyy Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Just had this same issue. Tried to add a client computer, but I forgot to activate the software on the client, so I wasn't able to toggle the SSL box. I activated the software on the new client computer, toggled on SSL, and it worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
