Problems with installing Wacom cintiq drawing tablet?

I recently bought the Macbook Pro with retina screen. I already own a Wacom cintiq 12wx, which I have owned since 2010, and only used on PC's with Windows, using a VGA cable.
I wanted to install it on my macbook and bought a Mini displayPort to Dual-link DVI adapter, because it was recommended in the Cintiq manual. I have installed the tablet many times on PC's without trouble, and have been in contact with Wacom support, who reassured me that the installation process was done correctly, so that is not the problem.
Since the cintiq is a tablet with a display it must be installed in two stages. The first stage you simply plug it in and the computer will recognize it as an external screen.
then you install the driver and it will work as a tablet and a display.
So I plugged all the cables off the tablet in, turned the tablet and the Mac on. The screen mirrored to the tablet, and showed up in the Mac display menu.
I could not at the moment install the driver, I had no internet to download it, so I waited.
After ten days the internet was fixed. I attached all cables from the adapter to the mac, when they where both off, and turned them on, expecting the screen to mirror to the tabelt as usual. However I only got the message "no sync" "going to sleep" from the tablet wich went to stand by mode. I thought maybe installing the driver would fix it, and I did that, but the tablet still didn't have any screen. However the tablet recognized the pen, and moved the mouse on the Mac screen, with the tablet screen black.
What is wrong?
After that I uninstalled the driver, hoping to reset and try again, But even after the driver was uninstalled, the tablet recognized the pen and the mouse moved on the Mac screen. However the mac did not recognize it as an external display, and I couldn't find it listed anywhere in the Mac ( take into consideration I am new to the mac system, and did not really know where to look). If I want to install it from the beginning again, don't I need to remove it completely from the system?
When I talked to Wacom support they could not help me much, but from my explanation they figured there was nothing wrong with most cables. The only things they couldn't be sure about was the DVI adapter (which is completely new, and probably not the problem) and the DVI to mini dual link adapter I bought from Apple. However it definetely worked the first time, so could it just suddenly fail?
So my conclusion.
- is it possible to reset the whole installation process, and do it again from the beginning, maybe with the same result as first time?
- Or is it more likely that the adapter is the problem? And which should I buy instead?
Please help

All it says there is at least 10.5.8. A new Mini would be 10.8.5 so I'd think it would work. You'd need a CD/DVD drive and there's no guarantee how well it will perform with the Intel graphics of a Mini, but I read posts from people in the Photoshop forums at Adobe who use Wacom tablets with MBPs and iMacs all the time.

  • Problems with a Wacom Cintiq tablet after upgrade to Yosemite

    I have a 15-in MacBook Pro Late-2013 Retina with 2.6GHz i7 Processor, 16GB RAM.  I recently upgraded to Yosemite, 10.10.2, and then reinstalled my drivers for my Wacom Cintiq 12WX Tablet.  Now, startup takes 10-15 seconds longer than before - not a huge deal, but noticeable.  Also, when I attempt to start the computer with the tablet plugged in (via USB and Mini DisplayPort), startup hangs indefinitely, displaying a blank screen on both devices with only a cursor visible, for as long as 15 to 20 minutes, and never less than 10 minutes.  When it finally responds, it has automatically logged in as a "guest," requiring logout and login again as the primary user.
    Anything known about this issue?  I'm a professional artist and it's really spoiling my workflow.  I'd like to avoid rolling back my OS if possible, but maybe I'll have to do so.

    Hi,
    I am having that message, always if I delete a Sheet which contains an embeded query.
    Even the sheet is deleted, the SAPBEX has information of all the embeded queries, and tries to find the Result area to put the data.
    To find out if this is your case as well,
    select an empty cell in a Sheet and continue like that, until all the embeded queries are been displayed.

  • PLEASE HELP!!!! Problem with my Huion H610n drawing tablet!!!

    I recently purchased a drawing tablet which is the Huion H610N its working perfectly however when I opened photoshop cc I tried drawing in a blank canvas and Its not showing anything. I tried using the 'basic brushes' instead of my 'custom brushes' and it lets me draw and I can see it however the sensitivity is not showing when I draw using the 'basic brushes' the lines are just plain BOLD please help! I dont know why its doing this!

    Try accessing the *System Preference* panel, named *Universal Access*;
    then, note the choices within it include Mouse (among other) and click
    on the Mouse section to check and see if _+the slider control+_ to change
    the Size of the *Cursor icon* has been moved over to make it larger.
    You can check/change several settings in Universal Access; also some
    of these have keyboard shortcuts which may be engaged by a user,
    by accident due to random use of a keyboard. Be aware of this, since
    a pattern of changes when children use a computer may repeat; as
    similar keyboard mistakes (or intentional odd results) use similar keys.
    There are symbols representing keys used to engage Universal Access;
    their icons in this control panel area of System Preferences should be-
    come familiar to you, so when/if other odd visuals occur, check here.
    Notice what the 'default' settings are, in the different U.A. panel areas.
    This will help when you find another issue arise; a repeat is likely.
    You may choose to set up a different user account in the Mac then have
    it not allow full access to more than a few basic necessities, for a child.

  • Problem with installing Photoshop elements 9 and adobe support advisor

    Hi, I've received a graphic tablet with 2 programs: the first has been downloaded and works perfectly while the second, PSE9, has been giving me problems for at least a week!
    I downloaded it and now I have a winzip file full of strange things (one of this is set up exe which tells me that I have to install adobe support advisor) and two files which said 3DF.tmp and PSEP9(1).zip.download and if I try to click them they tell me that I have to find on the Net the program to open them because I can't. And I don't know which program is required.
    I tried a lot of times to download the adobe support advisor, I have enough space on my disc and my farewall is deactivated, but when the program begins I saw this annoyant message
    cpsid_82829s5 Missing installation file bootstrapper error occured
    with this code for a support from adobe 00-67325-032018052012
    I unistalled it and retried, but nothing.
    Please, I just want to use my tablet with the programs which are comprised in the package, why it's so difficult to download this damn photoshop elements 9????????????
    Thank you

    In the error message it doesn't tell me
    "Installer has detected that a machine restart is pending. It is recommended that you quit the installer, restart try again,"
    neither "Installer failed to initialize. File not found. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."
    and I have enough space and I have Windows xp then I should be able to install it. I tried to unistall and install again the support advisor but nothing. I'm desperate.

  • Problem with installing and uninstalling applicati...

    hi all,
    I have a problem with installing or uninstalling apps on 808. When i try to install an application through Nokia suite or when trying to run the application file from the phone's memory the screen freezes and becomes unresponsive but the 3 phone buttons work just fine. I have to shut down the phone and the screen becomes responsive again. Anything available to help me wiith this situations as I cannot use any of the apps I have. Any help much appreciated.
    Regards
    Alex

    You are not alone. Im also having the same issue because we do alot of install and uninstall apps. This is the bad point of symbian. But I tired to install the latest FP2 it will be slightly abit smoother now. So you have the latest version now but did you tired to restore any backup yet? It might be the setting on when you restore that affect it. The feezing should be shorten on FP2 but it will still remain there depending on the type of apps from what I experience.
    I hope they will provide multiple function to uninstall apps since it will go through a long process to uninstall apps 1 by 1.
    Reason is because some apps will go through process like preparing install, process install, finalising install which take away your control for that few seconds or a minute instead runnning in background mode. Its not convenient to uninstall more apps.

  • Problem with installing iTunes

    So these are my problems with installing iTunes.
    At first it was :
    A required iTunes component is not installed.Please repair or reinstall iTunes (-45019)
    Then it got worse as it would not even open and these would appear:
    The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
    and this would appear:
    iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.
    Error 7 (Windows error 126)
    I reinstalled maybe about 5 times or more...
    If I thought I solved the above problem, this would appear:
    iTunesHelper.exe is not installed on my computer.
    I seen other people comment that you should unistall and restart the computer and install the setup again, but it does not work..
    And others would say to repair the AAS or iTunes etc..
    And after trying all these it does not work???
    What else works?

    I also tried repairing the Microsoft NET.

  • Problem with Installing Nokia Ovi Store in E51

    I am having problem with installing nokia Ovi store in my E51. Whenever I try to download Ovi store from my E51, it shows a error message that the component is built in and cannot be installed. I dont know wat to do now. Can anyone please give me some advice. Thanks in advance.

    Hi there! 
    This means that the Ovi Store is currently installed in your E52 phone, what I can suggest is try checking under Application Manager > Installed Application, check if the Ovi Store is there. If you can't see it, try to perform the soft reset (press *#7780# on the main screen of the phone and it will prompt you restore all original phone settings? phone will restart. Press YES and it will ask you for the lock code 12345.) If anything else please reply to this message.
    Hope tis' Help!

  • Problem with installing CUCM on MCS-7816-I5

    Hi Sinisa,
    It almost sounds like this bug;
    CSCtn81201
    Incorrect "Hardware Configuration Error" due to hardware setup errors
    Symptom:
    Refresh upgrade stops with IMM device detection, and then server being reported as unsupported
    Conditions:
    in-band USB interface was disabled, which is configurable via IBM system X or IMM (browser) interfaces.
    Workaround:
    change the in-band usb interface settings to enabled.

  • Severe problem with installing and starting Audio-DVD Pla

    Hi,
    after installing the new drivers (SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_000.exe) for my Audigy2ZS in XP SP3 i had np mic boost and the mixer did not show the mic as an selectable source. So i rolled back to my old drivers and after that i have problems with installing and starting the Audio DVD Player. I tried so far: uninstalling everything like its said solution ID 72, checking HD for corrupted files and i did a repair installation of XP. Nothing helped. When i only install the drivers and the DVD Audio Player from the original CD everything is fine until the reboot adter installation. When the OS tries to start the "chkcolor.exe" the PC instantly reboots. When preventing XP from doing so, there is no reboot, but as soon i want to start the DVD Audio Player a reboot occurs again. When i try to uninstall the DVD Audio Player before unstillaing the drivers, the is also a reboot. First uninstalling the drivers and then the DVD Audio Player, there is no reboot.
    Any ideas?

    Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
    You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

    You can check you Adobe account online to see if the serial number is registered under your account.  If not then your only option will likely be to contact Adobe Support directly thru chat to see if they can provide you with a/the serial number. For them to do so will require you being able to prove ownership.
