Wacom Intuos GD-0608-U driver for OS X Maverick 10.9.3

Greetings!

Is there a tablet driver for the Wacom Intuos model GD-0608-U for OS X Maverick 10.9.3? The driver I downloaded from the Wacom website apparently doesn't work for my older model tablet, which still works amazing. The tablet itself lights up properly when the pen is touched to the surface, but there is no corresponding response on my Macbook Air (2011 model). I do not want to purchase a new tablet (unless I can find a free one haha) because they are so pricey; is there a driver elsewhere on the web that works with this model tablet and Mac software? Thank you!

I have an Intuos 4 which will not work with the MacPro (cylinder) running El Capitan 10.11.6, insisting that the USB is being overloaded (although the tablet is plugged into a USB powered hub). I've tested the voltage and current at the MacPro's USB port, and there is nothing out of the ordinary.

So I tried to go back to my old faithful Intuos GD tablet. The current 6.3 drivers don't work at all for the Intuos GD tablet (no movement of the cursor onscreen). I tried the pro620-w4 driver that KevinSaw posted, and it works but doesn't provide a Preference Panel for changing settings. The result is that X-axis movement is at least twice that of Y-axis movement, and no way to adjust it. I get the same results with the WacomTablet_615-2 driver that Wacom has on their site—no functioning Pref Panel.

It's a real shame that Wacom has recently given up on supporting their hardware.

This says it is compatible with 10.9.

Eric,

That's the driver that I downloaded on the website that doesn't work with my tablet. It downloaded fine, but my tablet still warrants no response whatsoever on my computer. :/ Thank you for the reply. I feel as though maybe I'm going to have to find a less orthodox way of resolving my issue?

Hi, I'm having the same problem with the same tablet on OS X 10.10. Is there a solution to get it to work? Thanks.

I was having a similar issue. Make sure you download the correct Intuos version. I used the "Drivers for Intuos GD" since the model number starts with "GD". I just installed it on my OSX 10.10.5 and it seems to be working fine for me now. Hope this helps!
