after 5 days of pouting whining kicking cleaning screaming yelling tossing and cursing (+ 1 new keyboard, oops went out my office window) i got my mac back working today... seems like it went on vacation again. LIKE A FOOL I HAPPEN TO CLICK UPDATE SOFTWARE AND 5 DAYS LATER IT ALL WORKS AGAIN. the first thing i noticed is my wacom tablet just said fu im done working. so i pulled out old mac plugged in and same problem. now how can software ruin hardware CAN IT ? NO

amid hyper focusing and a myriad of issues, like trying to return mac status a day earlier via time machine i realized to save space i did not do a complete backup of all components (A MUST) I tried old cds with lion that were just too scratched to take less then 55 years to load (keep them in cases from now on) trying to target boot mac from another mac but realizing only one has firewire plug.... )()*&^%$^^ or the keys needed to boot up for tricks were missing etc... every single thing i needed to solve a problem seemed to have six other problems coincidentally keeping me from succeeding. eventually this morning i found a site explaining recalibration of intous 2 tablet back to factory settings.

seems software can get corrupted and confuse it. i guess the software update did just this.. not sure if this feature is on every wacom tablet, but seeing as corporations just seem to want money lately and refuse to make a quality product anymore it seems odd that i would find a recalibration option on my old tablet.

well on the mac

system prefs >wacom tablet >  about > diagnostics  > hold option or alt~click on diagnostic button and bamb my intuos was frickin better then ever. all the pressure that had gradually disappeared over the years that one day made me swear on the life of my children that "wasnt there more pressure then this?" YES!!!!

well do it, recalibrate em folks....its better then i remember.. just a work horse; now with its accurate pressure back im realizing why i had such a confusing couple of years re pressure hehehehe idiot i am

oh never ever ever click update my software and system update your mac unless you are the luckiest of souls to always have the newest equipment on hand and never use used equipment to get your work done. or have a week without anything to do but try to locate random reasons computers stop working... errrrrrrrrrr  :)~~
