Others like to use iTunes in full screen mode. Or what I did was to go into System Preferences / Users & Groups and I added the Synergy application to my Login Items so it loads whenever the computer starts.Some users like to hide their Dock or just prefer to control their apps from the menu bar. Just drag that on to your dock and you can start it anytime. The last item, Synergy, is the application. The path is below, but the tricky part is that for the Synergy Preferences and Synergy.prefPan items, you have to right click on them and choose 'Show Package Contents' to keep opening the file structure.Īpplications -> Synergy Prefences -> Contents -> PreferencePanes -> Synergy.prefPane -> Contents -> Helpers -> Synergy Just use Finder to go into the folder structure of the 'Synergy Preferences' application. Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or mute the thread. You are receiving this because you commented. I just tried to open Synergy Preferences and, yep, 'Synergy Preferences quit unexpectedly. Perhaps doing so would work for others - not making an Automator app but simply drilling down to the above and adding that to your Dock or however would make it work for you. So I pointed Automator's 'Open Application' action to Synergy>Package Contents>Preference Panes>Synergy.prefPane>Package Contents>Helpers>Synergy. I made a couple Automator apps to do such but Synergy didn't behave. Years before HighSierra I wanted to open/quit iTunes, Synergy, and a couple other 'related' applications all at once. Only thing I can think of is that I do not start Synergy in the normal manner. On Jul 28, 2018, at 6:21 AM, timlance wrote:Īm I an anomaly? Have been A-OK with Synergy and High Sierra, updating macOS not too long after HS was released and have used Synergy daily. Timlance or Penage, would you mind giving me a little more detail to make this work? I’ve never used Automator and what I tried did not work.
