    Default Wacom stopped working...

    08-26-2011, 11:34 AM

    All of a sudden my wacom's pen stopped working - the tablet's light is on, changing from blu to green as it should, only... the curson on the screen isn't moving.
    I read on the internet about many other people having the same problem but I can't work out a solution, and the thought of having to do without the tablet even for a few days is unbearable ;_;"

    Any suggestions?

      You can try typical things such as downloading a new driver.
      Try to use the wacom with other Pc or mac if you can. If it works, the problem would be the driver. If it doesn´t, I hope you have the guarantee.

      Hope this may help you, good luck!

      Do you by any chance have Windows 7?

      I had the same problem, starting after some updates on windows and using the latest driver for wacom. The only real quick solution I have found for this (I have W7 and Int3 – and it happens in PS), is to have next latest driver for wacom laying ready on my computer. Half the time I restart my computer the tablet will stop working, I just reinstall the driver, and it works again. Takes about a minute, but it’s the only real solution I have found.

      Just have a shortcut for the driver before the latest handy, run it whenever it stop working, and hopefully you should be fine. If you have the same problem as me, at least.
