A couple of weeks ago I made a video about my “Ultimate PC/ Mac Setup” and you guys seemed to really like it, but one of the questions that I kept getting was: “How did you get the Mac and PC to show up on one screen?”
Well in this video I will be going over step by step exactly how I accomplished this, and hopefully after watching this video you will be able to implement some of these things into your setup!
What I used:

I've been watching videos about this keyboard and mouse for 2 PCs for almost 2 hours, and yours are THE ONLY ONE with complete explanation, there's always some things missing in other videos. Kudos man!

@tolapii Год назад

For anyone who is struggling with a mac and a window laptop to connect it together, I hope this comment can help you out. Try deleting the logitech+ app on macbook, downloading again, and then turn on the firewall. On the option of the firewall settings, choose allow logitech+ incoming connections. I struggled 4 hours w/ that thing and don’t want you to deal w/ it.

@javaman2883 2 года назад

I started using Synergy at work in 2011. We had a Windows desktop for all the business apps, and a Linux workstation for the development, testing, running virtual machines, etc. It works great for us. Around 2016 we got MacBooks for testing on those as well, but we didn't get an additional monitor, we use the MacBook display directly. Adding the Mac as a third device was easy. Its great not needing to use that crappy Mac keyboard. Also, Synergy converted its code from opensource to proprietary sometime between 2012 and 2016. Synergy started charging money for the software. However, the original opensource code was branched to form Barrier. Barrier remains opensource. Barrier does not have quite as many features, but all the keyboard/mouse functionality is there. It just lacks the "nice-to-haves" like being able to drag and drop files between the machines, or transfer files.

I use Synergy to share single keyboard/mouse with 2 PC and 1 Mac (and sometimes Raspberry Pi as well). I DON'T recommend audio splitter! Instead, use the headphone out of mac to line in of PC, and then enable monitoring in windows audio. The better solution would be to use a simple audio mixer like Behringer, which costs around $80+, but well worth the price.

@javaman2883 2 года назад

The audio mixer is very useful here. Not just to make fast adjustments to the volume of each, but also in sound clarity. Due to the capacitance/inductance of having the output stage of two sources being connected together, it does weird things with the frequency response. Imagine a multi-band equalizer where someone decides to just crank one way up, and another one way low, but the rest are all in the middle. It generally sounds muffled but may have prominent high pitch sounds that are not desirable.

@jacksonville4932 Год назад

Thank you so much

@protector7886 2 года назад

This was sooo helpful. Thank you for posting this. Synergy was way cheaper and easier to use than a keyboard that you need to click the button every time to switch.

@lhxperimental Год назад

1:57 You can't merge two outputs like this. This is like shorting. One driver could be trying to raise the voltage (that's how speaker outputs work, by dialing voltage up and down at audible frequencies) and the other could be actively trying to pull it low. This causes a tug of war between the two and they may even burn each other off. You have to use a mux chip to do this properly. There could be some product that uses a mux chip, use that instead.

@shing86 2 года назад

This is cool, but if you need to use only one pc you need to power on both computers, because without server PC you can't share the mouse and keyboard with the other PC. I mean, with macbook you can use the trackpad, sure. But if you have a PC and an iMAC or simply 2 PC, is better to have a multidevice mouse and keyboard

Is it possible to use 1 ultra wide monitor instead of dual monitors in windows to get the same advantages as having 2 monitors?

@Dr.Schlitz Год назад

Logitech Options allows you to use the same keyboard and mouse on 2 computers, but they have to be on the same network. If you are using a VPN on one computer (e.g., a work computer using VPN to log into a work network), then the computers are no longer on the same network and you can't share. I expect Synergy has the same issue, no?

@williamtopping 2 месяца назад

Alternatively you can buy a DP KVM Switch for around $50. Ugreen do a really good one. (Also HDMI) You plug your keyboard/mouse dongle into the USB ports in the front. HDMI/DP in the back. And then just press a button to switch between computers. This way you don't need to have a server running at all times. I have my MacBook connected to a dock. Then from the dock into the DP Switch. My PC into the DP switch. And then the Switch into my monitor (LG 38 ultrawide) I also have a USB drive in the switch as well. So I can quickly transfer files between computers if I need to. The UGreen is particular good because it does 8k at 60mhz, or 4k at 240hz. Which is great as my monitor does 166 at 4k 1600p. Also HDR as well... Using the switch is the ONLY way to use my K100 AIR from Corsair on BOTH my computers. I simply plug the Corsair into the switch, and then install the software on both Mac and the PC. This way I have full functionality of the software, macros and lighting. As far as each PC is concerned. It's as though you are connecting/disconnecting the USB. My Mac complains about ejecting the USB drive, but hey. You can silence that if you need to. You don't have to use UGreen, but if you want to use something like a Corsair/Logitech RGB keyboard you will need a POWERED version.

@embazle 2 года назад

Do you have a solution for splitting multiple usb devices between a Mac and a pc? I do have a basic 4 port hub split between 2 computers. In order to expand the 4 port hub I was going to daisy chain additional hubs behind it so that when switching the automagic transfer of 10+ usb devices, this would include my digital mixer, I use the usb interface for the sound and would prefer that it switches between both Mac and PC rather than using a separate audio cable.

@mariop8161 2 года назад

@bohansen2960 3 года назад

Hi... I have a question. You have two systems on the screen at the same time. One left one right. You would never be "in front" like directly in front of your main work. It would always be either left or right to you. Is that a problem for you? It probably depends on what work you are doing. Would you "shift" your chair to look directly into one of the sides and have the other side as a secondary monitor? If your focus main task is on the left you would probably have to look slight angled into that side and have the other side as a secondary. How do you manage that with a screen that large and displaying tow sources at once?

@myutubes0 2 года назад

Not having the stuff you work on right in front is a show stopper, depending on what you work on, for example programming, reading, and writing intensely. When I had 2 24inch monitor setup, I kept one right in front for the main tasks and the 2nd monitor on the side. Using a 34 inch single monitor now.

@EmbracedDestiny 2 года назад

Some of these apps through the monitors I’ve seen allow for different size split screen even like one being the full screen and the secondary being top right corner or something and with quick commands being able to switch it. Or have only one show or go back to the split screen

@EmbracedDestiny 2 года назад

@javaman2883 2 года назад

I'd been doing that with multiple 24" monitors for years. Windows on one side, Linux on the other side. I sometimes turn my chair slightly, mostly when using web conferencing or watching videos, or when I can just focus on one machine for a while on a task. Often though, I just sit straight forward, and turn my head slightly because frequent communication (Teams/Outlook) requires me to keep checking on the WIndows machine. When remote work started, I got four monitors. I originally had Windows on the two on the left (bottom and top) with Linux on the right, as that is what I was used to with dual monitors for the previous six years. But then I was finding I was heavily relying on the two bottom monitors. So I switched the inputs and put Windows on the top two monitors and Linux on the bottom two. That's been much better for me because I get to use the Linux workstation more effectively with the two bottom screens. For me it's much more effective to just move my attention to left or right monitor rather than switching between full-screen apps. My upper monitors work well for keeping MS Teams always on top since team communication is expected to be quick responses.

Don’t use it on your work laptop if you know that the company is strict about that. My solution was just to buy a usb kvm switch.

Would this work with dual monitors and only one connected to the macbook? Any changes to the setup needed in that situation?

Great video. Thanks for sharing Jesse. I tried the same setup, but the client kept failing to connect to the server due to "Time-out". Wondering if anyone has a clue to solve the problem?

Jesse, can I do this with 2 mac mini's and one monitor, keyboard and mouse?

@raoulbandera 2 года назад

Love your system. I noticed that you have an audio interface as well. Any idea how to add two audio interfaces to the mix as well? I have ny mac for logic, and my windows for Studio 1, and a master keyboard controller. Any ideas?? Thanks in advance.

A four channel mixer is really a good option for that. Due to the capacitance/inductance of having the output stage of multiple sources being connected together, will do weird things with the frequency response. The mixer will keep each of those output stages connected to one input stage (as all audio devices are designed and intended). The individual adjustment of volume on the mixer could be useful, but mainly it's for the proper combining of audio signals.

Switching between Mac and Windows can be done with a hardware device called a KVM switch.

Hey Jesse....I followed your set up with the exception of the pre amp and seem to be having a feedback static issue. Do I need to incorporate a pre amp? Thanks

Question: I have a iMac and laptop (window ) and dual screen (2screen) How can I make two of them together like this by using 1 keyboard and mouse?

@MrFLORESBR Год назад

How would you connect your Mouse and Keybord to work on both machines without Synergy? I mean, bloutooth? Receivers? (but I noticed that Logitech Master only connects to one single receiver)
