Is there an alternative to Input Director for Mac OS X, which will seamlessly move mouse from Windows PC to Mac OS? Synergy does it only through shortcut key and haven't been updated for ages.

Try Share Mouse. It lets you share your mouse and keyboard with multiple networked computers.

Share Mouse licensing is $50 if you have more than one monitor on either computer. As I (like many) have a dual-monitor main PC setup, it would cost $50. I'll pass. Commented Aug 13, 2015 at 14:12
Synergy a solution. I'd like to correct a few points that you've made:
- Synergy allows you to move your mouse seamlessly; no shortcut key is required.
- The project is in active development and has had a recent release.
Synergy is feature-restricted in the "free open source" version and you must donate to the developers in order to get all features and have bugs fixed with priority.
Synergy works on Linux too.

1Looks good, but it's good netiquette to acknowledge in your response that you are affiliated with the product. Commented May 20, 2014 at 11:20
Share Mouse works and is free-of-charge for non-power users. It will tell you if you're a professional user and have to pay $20 to continue using it.
