MACINTOSH-SPECIFIC PROBLEMS
At startup, a dialog box
appears telling you that either
the driver failed to load or the
tablet preferences have not
yet been created.
The tablet was not detected at startup. Make sure the USB interface
cable is securely connected to the tablet and to an active USB port on
your computer. Make sure also that the tablet status LED is
illuminated. If your tablet is plugged into a USB hub, make sure the
hub is connected and active.
From the G
O menu, select the UTILITIES folder and launch the SYSTEM
P
ROFILER. Select USB from the HARDWARE section of the CONTENTS list.
A Wacom USB tablet model should be listed. If a tablet model is not
listed, check the USB tablet cable connection or try plugging the tablet
into a different USB port.
If this does not help, contact Wacom for technical support.

.
You suspect the tablet
preferences may be
corrupted, or want to make
certain that all settings are at
their factory defaults.
Use the Bamboo Utility to work with your preferences. Close any open
applications. Open the main A
PPLICATIONS folder. Then open the
B
AMBOO folder and run the BAMBOO UTILITY.
• It is a good idea to first back up your tablet preferences. In the
B
AMBOO UTILITY dialog box, select CURRENT USER or ALL USERS.
Then click B
ACKUP... and follow the prompts.
• Then, delete the tablet preferences as follows:
Single user
. When the utility starts, select CURRENT USER and click
on the R
EMOVE button. Log out, then log back in. When the tablet
driver loads it will create a new preferences file with the factory
defaults.
Multiple users
. When the utility starts, select ALL USERS and click
on the R
EMOVE button. Log out, then log back in. When the tablet
driver loads it will create new preferences files with the factory
defaults.
You can quickly restore tablet preferences for the C
URRENT USER or ALL
USERS by clicking on the RESTORE... button within the utility.
Note: Do not manually remove the B
AMBOO.PREFPANE file from the main
L
IBRARY PREFERENCEPANES folder. This file is only to be removed
when uninstalling the tablet software driver, and then only when
using the B
AMBOO UTILITY.
