- WACOM GRAPHIRE 4 DRIVERS ERROR FULL
I just kept installing & un-installing drivers until I found one that worked. I guess.get an older computer or a newer tablet? Well. You can also try checking out the latest model of your tablet which is Intuos Pro.".
However, it would still be compatible with Windows 7, Vista or XP and Mac OS X v. "Unfortunately your tablet is not compatible with your current Operating System (El Capitan OS X10.11.3) because it is already a legacy model.
Hope this helps anyone to restore full functionality to our older beloved Wacoms! But without the 32bit System Prefence switch weirdness. Where this fix is described for a Graphire 3 - CTE-430. I got this idea to hack the preference pane here: Just be sure to keep a copy of the prefpane and drivers to be safe. Maybe in a new MacOS version, the copied, hacked prefpane will just work. I am not sure what causes the hacked prefpane only to work correctly after the switch of System Prefs to 32bit and back is performed. In that case, I imagine that the hacked preference file still may work, but only the future will tell.
I read somewhere that next versions of MacOS may not have the 32 bit option anymore, so steps 6-13 may not work anymore after High Sierra.
I imagine this hack may work for other older driver combinations, but I am not sure, just try it out.
Working with my old tablet on High Sierra for a week now, no problems or hickups. All options/settings are working and can be saved. In my case with the mentioned to driver versions, I have a fully working prefpane. Steps 6-13 are crucial, without the 32bit switching and back, the prefpane does not work correctly.
Open System preferences and the Wacom preference pane: Voila: fully working preference pane, without any weirdness. Revert the 32-bit mode opening by deselecting the 32 bit mode option. The pref pane still acts a little weird at this point. Make some changes in the Wacom preference pane. Change System preferences to 32-bit mode (with CMD-i on the System preferences app > checkmark at 'open in 32 bit mode'). The Wacom preferences pane now shows and opens, but acts weird. You can check versions of the prefpane file with Cmd-i if you get confused. Just be sure you keep the newer prefpane file and replace ist with the ist from the old prefpane. Replace this ist file with the one from the old preference pane file in step 3. Open it with: right-click > Show Package Contents. Navigate to your the prefpane of the newer driver: Open the old prefpane wacomtablet.prefpane file that you copied to your Desktop with: right-click > Show Package Contents. ~/Libray/PreferencePanes/wacomtablet.prefpaneĭownload a newer driver, that does work in High Sierra. Or it might be here in your User library Libray/PreferencePanes/wacomtablet.prefpane Look up the preference pane file in the Library With my Intuos1 tablet, in my case this was version 6.2.0w4 I managed to get a working Wacom Preference Pane with the following trick/steps:ĭownload the old driver that works. Unfortunately this does not work anymore in High Sierra. The solution for a working Preference Pane for previous MacOS versions was to open System preferences in 32-bit mode, as described in this thread. The above works, you have a working tablet, but without a working Preference pane in System Preferences, as described in this thread. Then import/restore these setting with the same Wacom Tablet Utility. Using a legacy driver, in my case 6.2.0w4, downloadable on the Wacom website:Įxport/backup the Wacom preference file from my pre- High Sierra (Mountain Lion in my case) computer/backup with the right settings, with the Wacom Tablet Utility in Applications > Wacom-tablet. I read all solutions in this and other threads.įirst, the following steps got me a more or less working tablet, as described in this thread: I have an old first Wacom Intuos first generation (GD-0912-U) tablet, and ran into the same problems as described above, after I upgraded to High Sierra from Mountain Lion.Īfter a lot of reading and trial-and-error, I now have a fully working old Wacom tablet, with a fully working Wacom preference pane in System Preferences. Then switched System Preferences to 32bit and back, opening the prefpane before, in between and after. I managed to get my Wacom Intuos GD-0912-U (first generation Intuos A4 size) tablet working in High Sierra, with a fully functional Wacom Preference Pane, by using a newer driver and preference pane, and hacking the preference pane file: I replaced the ist in the package of the newer preference pane (6.3.15-3) with the ist from the old preference pane (6.2.0w4) that was working in older macOS.
