# Manual fix installation | ||
|
||
Make sure you already have the correct Wacom driver installed ([Wacom 5.3.7-6 for Bamboo tablets](http://cdn.wacom.com/u/productsupport/drivers/mac/consumer/pentablet_5.3.7-6.dmg) | ||
or [Wacom 6.3.15-3 for Intuos 3 and Cintiq tablets](http://cdn.wacom.com/u/productsupport/drivers/mac/professional/WacomTablet_6.3.15-3.dmg)), | ||
because the manual method only replaces a couple of the driver's files and doesn't install the complete driver itself. | ||
|
||
Now download my patch for your tablet here: | ||
|
||
- [Manual patch 5.3.7-6 for Bamboo tablets](https://github.com/thenickdude/wacom-driver-fix/releases/download/patch-5/wacom-5.3.7-6-macOS-patched.zip) | ||
- [Manual patch 6.3.15-3 for Intuos 3 and Cintiq tablets](https://github.com/thenickdude/wacom-driver-fix/releases/download/patch-5/wacom-6.3.15-3-macOS-patched.zip) | ||
|
||
Unzip it by double clicking it, then follow the installation instructions that match your tablet: | ||
|
||
### Bamboo tablets | ||
|
||
First make sure that the Wacom driver is not loaded by running this command in Terminal (paste it in, then press enter to | ||
run it): | ||
|
||
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.pentablet.plist | ||
|
||
The unpacked zip file you downloaded will give you files called "PenTabletDriver" and "ConsumerTouchDriver". | ||
|
||
In Finder, click "Go -> Go to Folder" (or press Command + Shift + G), then paste this path in the pop-up window, | ||
and click Ok: | ||
|
||
/Library/Application Support/Tablet/PenTabletDriver.app/Contents/MacOS | ||
|
||
You should see a file already in there called "PenTabletDriver". Move the new PenTabletDriver file from the zip file | ||
in there to replace it, confirm that you want to overwrite it, and enter your login password to confirm. | ||
|
||
**If your tablet supports touch** you have one more patch to install. In Finder, click "Go -> Go to Folder" and paste | ||
this path: | ||
|
||
/Library/Application Support/Tablet/PenTabletDriver.app/Contents/Resources/ConsumerTouchDriver.app/Contents/MacOS | ||
|
||
Copy the ConsumerTouchDriver file from the zip you downloaded and paste it over the ConsumerTouchDriver file you see | ||
there, enter your password to confirm the replacement. | ||
|
||
**We're done installing patches**, so back in the terminal, run: | ||
|
||
launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.pentablet.plist | ||
|
||
After installing, follow the "post-install instructions" section to set the permissions properly. | ||
|
||
### Intuos 3 and Cintiq 1st gen tablets | ||
|
||
The unpacked zip you downloaded will give you files called "WacomDriver" and "WacomTabletDriver". | ||
|
||
In Finder, click "Go -> Go to Folder" (or press Command + Shift + G), then paste this path in the pop-up window, | ||
and click Ok: | ||
|
||
/Library/PreferencePanes/WacomTablet.prefpane/Contents/MacOS | ||
|
||
You should see a file already in there called "WacomDriver". Move the new WacomDriver file from the zip file | ||
in there to replace it, confirm that you want to overwrite it, and enter your login password to confirm. | ||
|
||
In Finder, click "Go -> Go to Folder" (or press Command + Shift + G), then paste this path in the pop-up window, | ||
and click Ok: | ||
|
||
/Library/Application Support/Tablet/WacomTabletDriver.app/Contents/MacOS | ||
|
||
Move the new WacomTabletDriver file from the zip file in there to replace the existing one. | ||
|
||
Now either restart your computer, or run these two command using the terminal, to reload the tablet driver: | ||
|
||
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.wacomtablet.plist | ||
|
||
launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.wacomtablet.plist | ||
|
||
Now open System Preferences and try using the Wacom Tablet preference pane, it should be working now. | ||
|
||
If you are still having issues with your tablet, follow the next "post-install instructions" section. | ||
|
||
## Post-install instructions | ||
|
||
Touch your pen tip to your tablet, and it should prompt you visit System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy Tab | ||
to grant the tablet permissions. | ||
|
||
On the Accessibility page, click the padlock to unlock the page, then find and tick any `PenTabletDriver`, `WacomTabletDriver` | ||
`TabletDriver` or `WacomTabletSpringboard` entries you see in the list. Do the same on the Input Monitoring page. | ||
|
||
If your tablet supports touch, touch the tablet with your finger, it should again prompt you to grant permissions. | ||
On the Accessibility page, tick the `ConsumerTouchDriver` or `WacomTouchDriver` entry. | ||
|
||
For Intuos 3 and Cintiq tablets, the driver might only appear on the Input Monitoring page, and you may need to reboot a second time | ||
for it to appear on the Accessibility page too. | ||
|
||
**If your Wacom preference pane, pen support, or touch support is not yet working, or the entries never appeared in the | ||
list for you,** you likely had permissions left over from the previous tablet driver, and these stale entries all need to | ||
be removed like so: | ||
|
||
On the "Accessibility" page of Security & Privacy, Find anything related to Wacom in the list (e.g. `PenTabletDriver`, | ||
`WacomTabletDriver`, `TabletDriver`, `ConsumerTouchDriver`, `WacomTabletSpringboard`, `WacomTouchDriver`), select them, | ||
and click the minus button to remove them. Go to the "Input Monitoring page" and do the same there. | ||
|
||
Now either reboot your computer, or run these two commands in the Terminal, to reload the tablet driver. For Bamboo tablets: | ||
|
||
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.pentablet.plist | ||
|
||
launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.pentablet.plist | ||
|
||
For Intuos 3 and Cintiq tablets: | ||
|
||
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.wacomtablet.plist | ||
|
||
launchctl load /Library/LaunchAgents/com.wacom.wacomtablet.plist | ||
|
||
This should restore the prompts to ask you to add permissions, so now begin the instructions in this section again. | ||
|
||
