hi ,

i have upgraded my iMac to Sierra and i can t use my bamboo pad because the drivers are not compatible.

Do you know if wacom has released a new version of the driver for Sierra or do you have any other suggestions?

I got informed by macOS Sierra that my previous driver (5.3.6-6) wasn't compatible when I upgraded this weekend. So I removed the driver using Wacom's utility (as recommended), then downloaded and installed the newest driver, (5.3.7-6). It installs Ok, but says it can't find my Bamboo One (CTE-660). Dug out my older Bamboo tablet (MTE-450A), plugged it in, and that works. What's really confusing is that there are multiple entries on the Bamboo drivers page at http://www.wacom.com/en-us/support/bamboo-support but they all seem to link to the same driver download. Clearly, this driver's not designed for the Bamboo One, does Wacom have a driver available that does support it on macOS Sierra?

Downloaded and installed the older driver (5.3.6-6), which failed to complete. Restarted anyway, and presto, my Bamboo One works again! I've no idea what Wacom have done with the latest driver software, but clearly it ain't working properly. Reinstalling, restarting my iMac, unplugging and reconnecting the tablet - no joy whatsoever. Oh well, will leave well alone until the next macOS rolls around, or I need to replace this 2011 iMac with a more modern machine.
