Where is Ink/Inkwell in Leopard?

I have a Genius G-Pen 450 attached to my iMac running 10.5.1. The driver is recognized and the pen functions in applications such as Pixelmator, However Inkwell doesn't appear in Systems Preferences, and I am unable to find any reference to it anywhere else. So I can't set handwriting recognition or use inkBook.
Where do I look?

OK Tom, I had missed that because I was concentrating on getting Ink into System Preferences. That is the way the Documentation shows, and what I was used to in Tiger.
As a warning to anyone who may have a similar problem, the first time I pulled down the menu Write Anywhere was checked and clicking on Ink Preferences… gave nothing. When I unchecked Write Anywhere I was got the Ink Preference Pane independent of System Preferences. Attempts to update gave various messages saying Ink was not available at that time, and maybe I needed to plug in a device, or update a driver. After 2 or 3 times I got an acceptable combination of ticks and Ink now appeared in System Preferences. But at the same time the buttons on both my mouse and pen went haywire and I had trouble doing anything. I pulled the pen to no avail and in the end logged out and in again. My mouse is OK, but Ink is still in both the menu and Systems Preferences, which I don't think is supposed happen when there is no pen. I haven't plugged the pen back in yet.
To the others who replied, thank you, and you can work out who was closest.

  • Where do I get snow leopard 10.6.0... Can't find it in the standard downloads?

    where do I get snow leopard 10.6.0... Can't find it in the standard downloads?

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

    Yes.  Some report shipping estimates of weeks now, but mine arrived in 5 days.
    That is a US number.  If you are outside the US you should call your country's Apple support line and hope they will help you get it.

  • Where did Ink preference pane go?

    I connected a tablet (Adesso CyberTable 12000) to my OS X Tiger and a new preference pane called Ink appeared and the tablet was auto-detected and worked fine as a mouse (absolute mode).
    Then I made the mistake of installing Adesso OS X drivers. These gave me the ability to adjust pen pressure at the cost of not being able to work with a dual monitor setup. The pointer couldn't move to the other screen at all.
    So I decided to uninstall the driver hoping that OS X would revert back to the original. Well, not really. The tablet stopped working completely and the Ink preference pane disappeared totally.
    So now I am stuck with the reinstalled Adesso driver and limited to a tablet that only functions on the main screen.
    Any idea how to get the Ink preference pane back and revert to the original, generic OS X driver?
    (Alternatively any solution that makes the Adesso driver work dual-screen would work too ).
    Thanks in advance!

    A popup screen will appear, from which you can select a different Apple Store country-location -

  • Where are  iCal files in Leopard?

    I've looked at the files in ~/Library/Application Support/iCal but none of them have a date greater that the date I converted to Leopard. As a result my backup program (not Time Manager) is not backing iCal up to my external HD. Anyone know where these files are nowadays?

    I'm wondering if the problem I am having is because iCal is not updating the dates on the ics files ... anyone know if this is the case and if it is by design? If it is it really screws up backups which are usually based on a modified date.

  • Where is httpd.conf in leopard?

    I am trying to get my webserver up and running and need to enable php and have it recognize index.php, but I can't seem to find the httpd.conf file to do this. Can someone point me to where it is? It used to be at /etc/httpd/httpd.conf if I remember corrrectly. But it is not there in leopard.

    Just a heads up...
    I upgraded and things mostly went great, however Leopard failed to move/copy the user.conf files to the new Apache2 users location. This meant that new users created inside Leopard could successfully serve their ~user directory with Web Sharing while pre-existing user accounts failed. Simply moving the file solves the problem.

  • Where can i find a leopard dvd?

    Hi everybody,
    i bougth a used PowerMac MDD, and there was no DVD at all, only Leopard already installed.
    Now, i'd like to re-install a clean copy of Leopard but i don't have a install DVD.
    Where can i buy it ?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you're in the US, you can call the online Apple store at 800-MY-APPLE, as they do have retail copies of Leopard available for $129 (I just called to check).  The person I talked to wasn't sure of how long they would have them, and recommended buy sooner rather than later.  Another source is http://www.hardcoremac.com which will have new, unopened boxes, however, they can be pricey.

  • Where can I buy Snow Leopard?

    My Mac is running an older version of OS X, and when I tried to update with the new version of iTunes, it told me I needed to update to the newest version.  In order to update to Mountain Lion through the App store, I think I need to first update to Snow Leopard.  Any legitimate places I can get the software? Thanks.

    Kappy 08/2012 post on upgrading to Snow Leopard, then Lion or Mountain Lion -  https://discussions.apple.com/message/19401628 - including how to get Snow Leopard and Lion since Apple removed them from the online store.

  • Where is mail store on Leopard Server?

    I'm trying to restore email after a reinstall of Leopard Server but I can't find the mail on the Time Machine backup. I've looked in /var/spool/ but the folder is empty.

    I've just spotted this and I'm frankly disgusted: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2599896
    Leopard Server is one of the most irresponsible products Apple has ever released. This was sold to us as an easy to use integrated server. Crack dealers are more reliable.
    What was Apple possibly thinking? Hey, let's sell Leopard Server to small businesses and tell them it's easy to use, but when they think they're backing up they won't be. Haha.
    The only silver lining in this sorry story is that I'd already learnt not to trust the disgrace that is Leopard Server. I keep a copy of all the mail on a local machine and we also have an offsite backup. Problem is what should have taken minutes is going to take hours or days to restore. I can't imagine the grief those have gone through who hadn't learnt to distrust Leopard Server.
