WINDOWS-SPECIFIC PROBLEMS
MACINTOSH-SPECIFIC PROBLEMS
After changing right- and
left-handed settings in the
computer’s mouse control
panel, the pen tip no longer
functions properly.
Restart Windows for your Wacom tool settings to be correctly
recognized.
At startup, a dialog box
appears telling you that
either the driver failed to
load or the tablet
preferences have not yet
been created.
The pen display was not detected at startup. Make sure the USB
interface cable is securely connected to an active USB port on your
computer or to a USB hub. Make sure that the pen display power
LED is on. If this does not correct the problem, see Troubleshooting
on page 32.
From the GO menu, select the UTILITIES folder and launch the SYSTEM
PROFILER. Select USB from the HARDWARE section of the CONTENTS
list. A Wacom USB pen display model should be listed. If a pen
display model is not listed, check the pen display’s USB cable
connection or try plugging the pen display into a different USB port.
If this does not help, contact Wacom for Technical Support.
See Technical support options on page 41.
Inkwell does not work
correctly with the pen
display.
There may be a problem with the Inkwell preferences. Remove the
damaged preference files as follows. They will be recreated when
you enable handwriting recognition.
1. From the Apple menu, choose SYSTEM PREFERENCES. From the
System Preferences menu, choose SHOW ALL and select INK.
Then turn off handwriting recognition.
2. From the GO menu, choose your HOME. Open the LIBRARY and
PREFERENCES folders. Then remove the following preferences:
• com.apple.ink.framework.plist
• com.apple.ink.inkpad.plist
• com.apple.ink.inkpad.sketch
3. Go back to SYSTEM PREFERENCES and INK, and then enable
handwriting recognition.
4. Test the Inkwell function using your Wacom pen display tablet
and pen.
5. If this procedure does not resolve your problem with Inkwell,
contact Apple Support for further assistance. Wacom is not the
software manufacturer for Inkwell and we are limited in our
abilities to support a third party software application.
