Obviously they have no intention of ever releasing the Mac version, I just don't understand why they don't come out and announce this to get the griping out of the way in one big chunk instead of having it linger for like 4 more years. 

PS.  I predict that the next excuse will be that now they have to build in support for Windows 7 and Snow Leopard.

I think after almost 4 years I'm going to reply to my own post...   lol

I wonder if we can beat Duke Nukem' Forever in the longer development cycle for a program people want. 

Just get Synergy. http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/

I have tried that... but it does not work well when your in a Game (WoW) on the PC and go over to the Mac... WoW minimizes on the main system and there is a huge pause when switching machines...   so nothing good for that... if all I did was work with it in windows Synergy would work just fine other than the outdated install method for the Mac.

I use to use a program called Kavoom when I jused 2 PC's but now that one is a Mac I can't use that program or Multiplicity...

synergy has an option to not minimize when you movea computer running a fullscreen DX app

pretty funny it's still not here, guess it never will be

Beyond funny.

● OS X client in development.

At some point in time you have to realize that you are not capable of producing this product and be honest with your customers and the public. To continue to still have this development information posted in the product description when you are aware that customers purchase based on this information is dishonest.

This thread was started four years ago. If you need a cross platform compatible application like Multiplicity, look elsewhere.

Happy anniversary everyone!  Last Thursday was the fourth anniversary of the start of this thread.

For four years, Mutiplicity users have been asking for the promised OS X client - supposedly still in development. For four years Stardock's BS artists have been deliberately misleading its customers with crap like the following:

Neil Banfield, June 22, 2005

The OS X version is still in development and should be in the 1.1 release.

Brad Wardell, June 29, 2005

Sometime this Summer.  Between the move, vacations, etc. our schedule is a bit in flux.

"Frogboy", September 22, 2005

We're beta testing it internally.  If you have ThinkDesk, the beta of it should show up there soon too.

Neil Banfield, April 5, 2006

We have now obtained an intel based mac as well for testing and I hope once KeepSafe 1.0 is released we can look at releasing a beta. Unless something happens in the next few days, I expect KS 1.0 to be released in April 2006.

Neil, Brad and Frogoy. Your contempt for your own customers is despicable. You are nothing but a bunch of pathetic liars. None of you have the guts to admit the truth and Stardock should be condemned for allowing this charade to go on as long as it has.

Happy anniversary everyone!

So, uh... about that OSX client release...

/looks around cautiously.

Yeah there isn't one and I'm pretty sure there is no plan to make one.

I have long since uninstalled and stopped using multiplicity completely because I need a solution that I can use from my windows boxes to my macs..

Multiplicity is great for windows to windows but in any other situation you are just hozed.   Use Synergy instead.  Its the only option available.

It was years since I moved from Multiplicity to Synergy and I thought I'd pop into Stardock to see what had become of the OS X client. Sadly, after 4 years of being "in development" it's still nowhere to be seen. Classic vaporware.

I've been a Stardock customer since the OS/2 days and have never known Stardock to behave in this manner with any other product. Luckily, since i've moved to an all-Mac environment I wont have to use Stardocks products anymore (in fact I can't even if I wanted to).

Stardock needs to realize that this has alienated not just the new customers being suckered into buying Multiplicity by the "Client in development"-bullet but also longtime customers who have had to watch Stardock as a company over-promising and under-delivering on this product - again and again.

You've lost all credibility at this point and will not be getting any more of my business. Now that that's out of the way, maybe you should give the Stardock programmer (I assume at this glacial pace there is only one) some time off. If he's alone working on all those products, no wonder the OS X stuff gets pushed to the bottom at every possible turn, he must be overworked and need some time off.

synergyplus is a fork of synergy and they've come out with an update recently. you can find it on google code and it's worth looking into. it shouldn't take 4 years to release this software for mac os from beta stage.

I too have finally given up on OS X version of Multipicity. It's too bad, I really like Multiplicity Pro and have been using since its release, but, one of my primary notebooks is a Macbook Pro now. I am always using at least 3 computers, here at home and at my work. Having keyboard/mouse sharing like Multiplicity is MUST for me, but, sadly, no OS X and I am sure there never will be an OS X version of Multiplicity. It's a shame.

You know, I don't understand why Stardock doesn't just contract out the developent and get it done. This isn't a difficult application to develop. Where I work, when we begin to slip into vaporware with a project, we contract it out and get're done!

Oh, and I was able to get SynergyPlus up and running just fine. I was a little confused about the configuration, but otherwise it seems to work really well. I may donate some of my time to improving that project and greatly enhance the configuration process. The core application seems to work just fine, now putting a good front-end on it like Multiplicity would polish it off. Could be a good "free" alternative to Multiplicity.

Wow. It's 2010.   .   So I am pleased to announce MULTIPLICITY ALPHA FOR THE MAC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

And then the dream was over. So I guess we can declare this one officially dead? 

BTW folk, you guys have heard of Synergy KM right? It's a Synergy GUI build specifically for the Mac.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/synergykm/ I am using that and synergy-plus 1.4 and it works like Magic.

Hey, maybe with luck, stardock will charge us $43.99 to pre-order and be in the Multiplicity Alpha test like they did with object dock. HA! HA! HA! Stardock, you guys are truly my heroes!

eagerly awaiting more empty promises!  You productivity MONSTERS!

I posted this FIVE years ago, and I'm still waiting.

What intrigues me is that there is alternative software out there that (almost) does the same job (for free) and Multiplicity is simply being left behind. Why?

It's been 4 years, but I'm also going to tack on my request for Multiplicity Linux again. I just bought Multiplicity 2, and it's working for now as I'm temporarily using 2 Windows 7 systems and not running Linux, but that won't last for long and I'd really love to be able to link a Linux system into the two windows systems. Either I'm going to have to get Multiplicity to work at the same time as Synergy, or drop Multiplicity entirely for Synergy...

This is especially important with Windows 8 screwing the whole windows ecosystem up...

Hey I just wanted to chime in, and say that as a VERY HAPPY user of WindowBlinds, and ObjectDock, I would LOVE to consider buying Multiplicity 2.0!!

But!, without a Mac version, I just can't do it. Please, please, PLEASE! consider making a Mac compatible version of Multiplicity!

Yes, I have Synergy KVM running, between my two Macs, and my Gaming PC, but I always feel like it is on the verge of failure.

I would happily pony up $60 for a fully support, cross-platform version of this software!
