For PC: Once downloaded, run the application and complete any installation prompts.

For Mac: Once downloaded, move the Synergy Source Manager from the Downloads to the Application folder in the same manner as seen above.

Documents Folder Setup

It is important to ensure that associated folders for both the Editor and the Source Manager are located in the same place on your computer. Once the applications are installed, ensure that a Synergy Sports folder has been created in your LOCAL documents folder and contains an additional folder both for the Editor and the Source Manager.


Note:The individual application folders may not appear until you have opened/utilized the applications.


Ensure the following: 

  • Synergy files are written to the Documents folder on your computer’s hard drive (not networked with limitations).
  • The Documents folder should be at least 25 GB of available disk space.
  • You must also have Read/Write permissions on the specified Documents folder. 

If you install the applications and the Synergy Sports folder is not present in your local Documents folder, please contact our Support Team for assistance.
