Wacom. Intuos.

[Azrael9]

I have a Wacom Intuos. It used to work with my iMac 2012 np.

It's in the USB. The light says something is home (ie that the Wacom has power from the USB) but the pen isn't working. :/

I've downloaded the latest Wacom drivers for Catalina.

Regards,

Azrael.

So. There is no compatible driver for my 'old' Intuos.

A glorified mouse pointer (drawing tablet) has been 'discontinued' by not release a simple patch. The hardware works fine. Right up there with 'slowing down' your iPhone without telling you clearly about it.

This is like saying your mouse is too old.

Outrageous. It works fine in High Sierra.

But not in Windows 10 or Mac 10.15.

Yeeesh. Cynical.

Needless to say. I won't be 'upgrading' my Wacom to the 'same' thing but newer via the generous '7%' discount offer.

I'll wait until the iPad 14x comes out.

I'll use that instead.

I created a fixed version of Wacom's driver for Intuos 1, 2 and 3 tablets (also Graphire, Bamboo and Cintiq 1st gen) which allows them to keep working on Catalina:

GitHub - thenickdude/wacom-driver-fix: Fixes the Wacom Bamboo, Graphire, Intuos 1+2+3 and Cintiq 1st gen tablet drivers for macOS Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey (including M1 macs)

Fixes the Wacom Bamboo, Graphire, Intuos 1+2+3 and Cintiq 1st gen tablet drivers for macOS Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey (including M1 macs) - thenickdude/wacom-driver-fix

It's awesome having my Graphire 1 from 1999 working perfectly on the latest macOS.

Hello thenickdude,

The sounds great.

Salvation for my venerable Intuos..? I'll download the driver and try this out.

Thank you.
