Intuos pro m pen no longer works on my new Mac mini m2

I have a new Mac mini m2 with Mac OS Sonoma. The Wacom pad & pen I have is an Intuos pro m. It's connected to the Mac mini fine, allowing me to use a finger on the pad to move the cursor around on the screen. When I try to use either end of the pen on the pad, it pops up with an error message;

"Security settings prevented the Wacom Software from posting an event

Open System Settings > Privacy & Security. Scroll to Accessibility in the list on the right and make sure all Wacom applications in the list are toggled on. Go back to Privacy & Security and scroll to Input Monitoring. Again, make sure all Wacom applications in the list are toggled on."

I've re installed the most recent drivers twice but still the same error message.

I've checked that it still works on my iMac os Sonoma and it does, no problem.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong!

Any ideas?

YES! Wacom support have helped me and it works, this is what I had to do;


Regarding the issue that you are reporting, when the message "The security settings..." appears, select "Try again"


The message disappears

Go to System settings > Privacy and security > Accessibility

Select the "com.wacom" file and press the " - " (minus) to delete it

Close System Settings and try the pen

The message "Security settings..." appears again

Select "Try again".

This time, the message "com.wacom would like to control..." appears

Select "Open System Settings" and you will be taken directly to Accessibility

Activate the com.wacom file

If the "Security settings..." message appears again, simply close it

Restart the computer and try your pen and tablet; everything should work as it should now
