Still here.
Before I get started, I want to note that this issue is regarding Synergy, the network-based KVM software, not the iTunes app.

Here's what I'm doing:

I recently bought a PC and added it to my network. I switch between my PowerBook G4 and my PC probably 20 times a day, and it's becoming a pain having 2 keyboards and 2 mice. So I installed Synergy on both machines, setup the basic configuration file and set my PowerBook as the server.

Here's what's going on:

The configuration works fine. The mouse and keyboard are shared and work fine. The issue I'm having is with a half-second delay that occurs once per second causing the mouse and keyboard input to halt and take off over and over every second. Very annoying as you can imagine.


I notice that while this is going on, the now-stationary cursor on my PowerBook jumps a little each time this happens. While using Synergy between two macs, I never had this issue.

Any idea how I can resolve this issue?
