I deleted all the Wacom Tablet files but noticed while using activity monitor that the Wacom Tablet driver is still operating permanently and using RAM. How do I delete the driver?
MacBook Air (13-INCH, MID 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.4)
Thank you so much. My Mac at work was having trouble turning off and someone commented the Wacom driver was not fully uninstalled and preventing the shut-off. And this post helped me to find and delete Wacom stuff I didn't know it was here.
Did it come with an uninstaller? Contact Wacom for the best uninstall instructions.
Find Any File...
http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
Hold Option key down when clicking on Find to Find All.
Most likely a com.wacom &.plist file.
Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems

Based on the Wacom Tablet Driver 6.3.1w2 update I saw on Macupdate.com here's what I think you have installed.
/Applications
/Wacom Tablet
/Library
/Application Support
/Tablet
/Frameworks
WacomMultiTouch.framework
/Internet Plug-Ins
WacomNetscape.plugin
WacomTabletPlugin.plugin
/LaunchAgents
com.wacom.wacomtablet.plist
/PreferencePanes
WacomTablet.prefPane
/Preferences
/Tablet
/System
/Library
/Extensions
TabletDriverCFPlugin.bundle
Wacom Tablet.kext
If I list a file with a leading slash it means that is a directory (folder).
With no installer you need tio manually drag this stuff into the trash and reboot.
There is an uninstall utility.
1) In Spotlight, type: tablet
2) Click on: Wacom Tablet Utility
3) Under Tablet Software click on: Remove
Follow the prompts
Thanks dust_scratch, the Wacom Tablet utility is by far the best solution!
How do I delete the Wacom Tablet driver?
