Tim 1 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I installed v1.9. The cursor seems be erratic; movement delayed for 1-3 seconds intermittently - it eventually catches up. I observed the behavior in v1.8 Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Hi @Tim. Have you had your SSL turned on for both machines? Link to post Share on other sites
Tim 1 Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 Could you be more specific? Please post step-by-step how to access the setting you are referring to. Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 What firewall software do you have? How are your machines connected to the network (wired or wireless) ? Link to post Share on other sites
Tim 1 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 One machine is wired, the other WiFi. (I tried setting both for WiFi, but they wouldn't communicate - even though I could see the other PC in Windows Explorer!) My firewall is Norton Security Deluxe. In the Program Control tab of the Firewall settings 'synergy', 'synergys', and 'syntool' access is 'Auto' (picture attached). Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Do you have an option to allow it instead of having it on Auto? Link to post Share on other sites
Tim 1 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 I set the firewall settings to ALLOW for both client and server PCs. The mouse cursor is no longer jittery. However, the left mouse button click issue remains. I must frequently return to the client screen and left click somewhere to re-enable the left mouse button for the mouse cursor on the client.

Paul Suarez 107 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Can you press scroll lock while the cursor is still in the server's monitor then try to use it normally. Try to check if it still does that. Link to post Share on other sites
Tim 1 Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) When scroll lock is enabled on the server it prevents the mouse cursor from leaving the server screens and entering the client screens. Disabling scroll lock returns the mouse to normal multi-system functionality. Edited May 23, 2017 by Tim Link to post Share on other sites
