BBC Production Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 The server IP field is blank after startup on OS X 10.10.4, synergy 1.7.3. Reinstalled synergy and made a new user account. It still is coming up blank. Otherwise it works just fine I just have to attach a keyboard and enter the IP every time the computer is restarted. Thanks!

Matthew Barber Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 I have the same issue. I cannot figure out how to make my Synergy Mac client remember the server it is going to connect to. I've saved the config file as synergy.conf, but I cannot figure out how to make synergy (as a client) use the config file. -Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Read Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I too am having the same issue on OS X 10.10.4 as a client. My server is a Windows 7 Enterprise machine. Once I plug in the server name it works great. All versions are 1.7.3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Andrew Porritt Posted August 13, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2015 I'm also having the same issue. It appears there's a bug in the Synergy GUI that doesn't save the hostname. I've worked around it by editing the file: ~/Library/Preferences/com.http-synergy-project-org.Synergy.plist and adding the key / value pair: <key>serverHostname</key> <string>SERVER IP ADDRESS</string> 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Read Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 It looks like 1.7.4 fixes the issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically I did this: 1) Set the Mac computer to auto login to my user. 2) Set synergy to auto start and hide 3) Edited the plist file in Andrew's post above (using xCode) to have my server's IP address on the network. Boom, works like a charm now. Thanks Andrew! Edited May 8, 2019 by Geoff G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
