Wacom driver fail (Mac) - Solved.

Post by slowtiger »

I have to rebuild my machine more or less from scratch.
My old Wacom driver version was 6.1.3.
The newest download from Wacom is 6.15-2RC. I thought it would be a good idea to use the newest driver on my "new" machine, but...
It is not possible to calibrate the tablet with this driver version (adjusting the sensitive area to the stylus).

Does anybody know in which driver version this is still possible?

How about V6.1.5-2Jxmi for Mac OS X, not RC (Release Candidate) 2 ?

I checked Wacom Europe and Japan Latest intuos 3and 4 Driver for MacOSX are... My intuos 3 PTZ-630 with the latest driver has no problem.
(re-plug and play, delete all .plist about wacom, new Mac mini reboot with press shift key - safe boot,
make an new user account and reboot)


I wish for It will be of some help to you.

I was able to fix the problem with installing the old driver from my Cintiq software CD - which I fortunately found. Again not without quirks: i had to install the same driver twice in order to make it work.
