sticky cursor

Hi all,

I recently purchased a new Mac Pro desktop computer (the black darth vader tower) it is running 10.9.5.

I do not use a mouse or trackpad, etc. I use a Wacom Intuos 4 tablet. The driver is up to date.

Ever since I bought this computer, the cursor "sticks" to just about anything it touches. It pulls items out of the dock, it re-orders layers in Photoshop, etc. because it "won't let go" of whatever it comes in contact with. It is extremely disruptive.

The Wacom worked perfectly fine with my previous machine, a 2009 Mac Pro tower.

Again, all software is up to date. I tried resetting the PRAM. This is a brand new machine and the problem has started from the get-go.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like a driver/preferences problem. Are you using Wacom's drivers?

I have no real experience with a Mac, since I don't use one. However, I can tell you if you try doing a search of the forum here, within the last couple of days, I remember seeing another reference to that particular tablet and driver problems. Not sure if it was settled, but you may find some pertinent information in that thread.
