Synergy (Leopard) won't start at login

    I can't get synergy to start at login, I have the box checked in the preferences but it won't start at login. The program works if I start in Manually.

    Thanks

    Can you try the following and let me know how you go?

    1. In the Synergy preferences, uncheck the "launch at login" checkbox 2. Click "Apply" 3. Now check the "launch at login" checkbox 4. Click "Apply" 5. Test to see if it actually launches at login

    That Worked!

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Good to know. This isn't actually a Leopard-specific issue, but can happen any time that your login items get "stale". It may have been that your login items somehow got deleted, or not carried over, or otherwise altered when you installed Leopard, or it could have been something else; but the important thing to remember is that the general technique mentioned above is they way to overcome any "staleness" and ensure that Synergy gets re-added to the login items.
