Josh Borges Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I am having the same issue with 1.8.8 on Windows 10 x64 latest branch. I have to click in the server system to be able to click in the client system. then it only works for a click or two before I have to go back to the server and click to get it working again.

Paul Suarez Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hey @Josh Borges. I saw you have already replied to three threads (including this) made by other members. I that comment you made and made it as a different thread. Please provide more details about your machines (OS, 32/64 bit, Synergy version installed, connected to the network via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, specify which one is the server).

Josh Borges Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 both systems are window 10 Pro x64. Server is a wired connection. Client is wifi connected. Both systems are running 1.8.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Can you post a screenshot of both machine's Synergy interface and the Server Configuration interface on your server machine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Borges Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 These what you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Basing it on the screenshots, your server machine is using the 192.168.x.x as primary interface. Since your client is not connected to that network, it can't communicate to the server machine. Which network would you want the machines to communicate through?

Josh Borges Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 192.168.x.x is not the primary network. That is a vnic in VMWARE Workstation and VMWARE not running. My real network is the 172.16.1.x. Connection is not an issue. I can click after coming over from the server but then it will stop and then I have to clink in the server window to be able to click in the Client window. I did notice that the problem seem to stop when I closed Skype for Business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 If one or all of your computers have multiple IP addresses, it could be that Synergy is trying to look for the other computers on the network. This may not be the same network where your other computer is trying to send its connection request to. What you can do is to set an interface where your computer will be looking for or will be listening to for the other computer's request to connect. Do this on your server machine first On Synergy's user interface, click Edit Click Settings Use the IP address of that machine where you want it to listen or look for the other machine, type it in the box next to Interface Click OK Click Apply or Start Most of the time, setting it only on the server machine is sufficient. But if still won't connect, go ahead and set it on your client machine as well or you can opt to manually input the server IP instead of using Auto config.

Josh Borges Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Setting this still does not fix the issue. I have to close Skype for business (LYNC) and it works no problem. I would prefer not to have to close this application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Suarez Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Can you try connecting it again while Skype for Business is closed then re-launch it after Synergy connection is established? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Borges Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 This makes no difference. I am noticing that I see the same issue with VMWare Workstation installed with advance keyboard functions enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
