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 G
O
menu, select the U
TILITIES
folder and launch the S
YSTEM
P
ROFILER
. Select USB from the H
ARDWARE
section of the C
ONTENTS
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.
