Cintiq calibration mac fails

When calibrating the display, the last target is in the correct place, however, the calibration will not complete unless I touch several inches towards the center of the screen. The first three targets select correctly. Had this problem before with Mavericks and it took uninstalling the tablet, deleting the library files and reinstalling. Worked correctly after installing Yosemite until today. What I want is this to work correctly without doing the uninstall delete reinstall procedure. I don't have that kind of time to mess with this every time I need to recalibrate.

Is it possible that Wacom might have released a firmware update for your Cintiq? Wacom may have released a firmware update that will allow it to stay in sync w/ Mac Yosemite.

SOURCE: wacom 12 wx cintiq

I had the same problem at first but managed to solve it. In my case I was setting up in tandem with another monitor and once I had correctly set the pixel dimensions of both monitors and set them to to 'mirror' mode it works pretty well. The only issue now seems to be a slowing of stroke speed ie the cursor lags behind my strokes. I have downloaded a new driver but not installed yet. Does anyone else have this problem?

SOURCE: installation problem

After much reading and searching and not finding anything I decided just to download a newer driver from their site wacom.com. It worked perfect! So the CD that came with the tablet is probably out dated!

SOURCE: I just got a cintiq

I had this same problem and just had to go into my system preferences on the imac and select display and then select/check the mirror monitors and now it is on sync-hope that helps! After I did that though my color is off on the cintiq so I am looking for suggestions on how to fix it as the calibration did not fix the problem.

No Calibration for Wacom Pen

Sounds like your pen has problems, after so many attempts to calibrate the pen fail your tablet will automatically shut that feature off. I would suggest getting a new pen if possible and recalibrate it. The wire or fiber optic cable, which ever it has is bad to break where it bends down into the pen. Also the sensor in the end of the pen could have gone bad. I would contact the manafacturer on it and see what their tech's advise.

Wacom cintiq 12wx calibration

I had a similar issue using the 12wx with a 15" MacbookPro Retina. Screen displayed the desktop way too much to the left. I found that the refresh rate of 59.8 hertz seemed to not be compatible despite it automatically being set. After changing this to 74.9 Hertz, the desktop is now properly centered on the Wacom screen and can be calibrated now. Not sure if this applies to Windows machines but perhaps something to keep in mind.

Problem with the HP LaserJet 4730mfp All-In-One Printer Unable to use ADF. Red light under start button.

Do the calibration for the scanner.

1. Place letter- or A4-size paper in tray 1, and adjust the side guides.
2. On the control-panel Home screen, scroll to and touch Administration.
3. Touch Troubleshooting.
4. Touch Calibrate Scanner.
5. Touch Calibrate to print the first pass of the calibration target(Print out).
6. Place the first pass of the calibration target face-down in tray 1 so that the arrows are facing into the MFP.
7. Touch Start to print the second pass.
8. Place the calibration target face-up into the ADF, and adjust the side guides.
9. After the calibration target has passed through the ADF once, reposition it face down in the ADF and touch Start.
10. Place the calibration target face-down on the scanner glass, touch Start, and scan the page.
After this pass, the calibration is complete.
Calibration will fails if print quality is not good...ensure that print quality must be in order..
Once calibration successfully done, restart printer several times & verify start button light, if its green every time 'u' re success. if not cleaning required for CCD which is major work & not suggestable..

Can no longer calibrate my cintiq pen

Old problem, but I had the same issue. I found that if I search for pen in the start menu and select "Calibrate the screen for pen or touch input" it fails, but if I select "Set up your pen and tablet" and choose the calibrate pen tab there, it works perfectly.
