Working Wacom Drivers for Yosemite?

This is the only thing that worked for me too - thank you HWilliam!

For the record, I'm pretty sure the issue of it not noticing when I pick up the pen is solved by this workaround plugin. (Mac only)

While debugging, I tried out a Monoprice (UC-Logic) tablet. It was having the same problem with lifting the pen. That workaround plugin fixed it.

Sadly, though, once I used the Monooprice tablet driver, I could no longer get my Intuos GD to work at all any more, no matter how I installed the drivers, even after uninstalling the Monoprice tablet drivers. Very sad! 😟

Load the older driver and the tablet will work as previously mentioned.

To be able to set the preferences, simply make a back up of the preferences from a working version in your previous operating system (if you still have a back up of your older OS!) App > Wacom Tablet > Wacom Tablet Utility

Then simply use the Restore facility in the same Wacom Utility on your Yosemite OS. All previous settings are restored. You will not be able to make the changes on Yosemite but you can still make adjustments on a backed up 10.9 version and import them in to your 10.10.

Wacom said the intuos 2 is too old to be compatible with the newer OS. I believe Wacom could easily create a working preference pane but choose not to in order to phase out older generations.

hope this helps

i managed to get the settings open. i changed to mode of sys pref app to 32-bit and now i can open the wacom settings.

wacom version 6.2.0w4

system version 10.10.1

This worked for me. Bamboo Pen and Touch (CTH-470)

The 32-bit System Preferences trick worked for me. After setting my defaults, I put it back to 64-bit mode, and the tablet seems to be working correctly.

All the explanations are very interesting the...

I have an Intuos2. Where can I download the suggested driver 6.2.0w4?

Thanks

Thanks!

I will download the Driver and I will try. Unfortunately I have another that I have to fix first. My Mac Pro has a black screen and there is no way to get it back working. I guess I have to take the mac to Apple!

Thanks for your support.

if you updated from 10.9 to 10.10 please see this video posted by Wacom on YouTube

Good video except it doesn't work for the older intuos tablets (like intuos 2).

That's why I wrote how I did it. Please take a look at this 'procedure'.

You can find it earlier on.

Cheers,

Could someone upload the usable preference files? I just migrated to a 5K imac and no longer have the old preference files. I used a Intuo 2 as well and served me well for over 10 years. I see no point in wasting $500 in getting a new one! I don't think I will buy another Wacom product again if they do not fix this. BTW any suggestion for a comparable product? I use it primary for photoshop work. Thank you!

Yes, getting uploaded pref files would be awesome! good idea.

Sure, would like to do it. Wouldn't know how though.

Don't see an upload button or whatsoever. Hmmm

Wait: I'll put it on dropbox for a couple of weeks: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/snfgbqbcql5pfh4/AABhxMOmfRDnvHD8gpMRnUtpa?dl=0

Enjoy using it
