For some unknown reason I am not able to install Input Director again, after an uninstall. I have a post on EE for this problem. To me it looks like you suggestion is OK! Thanks for helping me.

Folks,<br />
I have tried 3 different products that are designed to allow someone with one mouse and keyboard to manage two different computers:<br />
1. MouseWithoutBorders<br />
2. ShareMouse<br />
3. Synergy<br />
<br />
Without exception the mouse functions correctly. However, in using the keyboard on the &quot;client&quot; workstation I only get numbers, never text. When the keyboard is used on the &quot;server&quot; machine everything works correctly. Any help here would be appreciated. The Laptop (&quot;client&quot;) is running Win 10 and the &quot;server&quot; is running Win 7.

Using one mouse and keyboard for a laptop and desktop

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
