Take it into the store you bought it from and they will do it for you.
You never know
You should contact Wacom support, they answered me quickly, but most likely yes. My experience is with a Bamboo pen on an older tablet, it works perfect. Wacom has a good backwards compatibility policy.
It is a capacitive touchpad. It does not include, and would not work with the wacom pen. The pen uses an active sensor, which is not included in the touch model tablet. If you want to touch and use pen, then you need to buy the "pen and touch" model.
It certainly can. Although it doesn't have as many pressure levels and it doesn't recognise tilt, it is a high quality and very capable Wacom tablet that I have used for professional work for years.
I use a wacom inuos pro 5 , also wacom intuos manga should work fine
More Information on Issue: I bought a Wacom Bamboo Craft tablet and the first day it worked fine; I could use the pen whenever I wanted, although multi-touch didn't work. I, personally, don't care for multi-touch. I got my Bamboo to DRAW with! The day after I first got it and the day after that, only multi-touch would work. The tablet would sense that the pen was there (which I know because the white LED light turned orange as it does when the pen is near enough to the screen) but it won't let the pen do anything; when I hover or click with the pen, nothing happens. I want to draw with my tablet, and I'm looking for a quick, easy, and relatively simple way to fix this issue. How do I turn off multi-touch on my Wacom Bamboo Craft tablet?
Yes, a Wacom tablet can work on MS Paint. Wacom tablets are compatible with most graphic software, including MS Paint, as they function as input devices that allow users to draw and interact with digital content using a stylus or pen. To use a Wacom tablet with MS Paint, simply connect the tablet to your computer, open MS Paint, and start drawing or painting using the stylus on the tablet's surface.
Do these if each step doesnt work, 1) Re-Install the drivers after uninstalling the current drivers, 2) Replace the nib, 3) Disassemble the pen, 4) Replace the pen, 5) Replace the tablet.
The requirements for the Wacom Bamboo Fun are: PC - Windows 7, Vista or XP with Service Pack 2 Mac - Mac OS X (10.4.8 or higher) Hardware - colour display, powered USB port, and CD/DVD drive
throw it into the bin and get a new one
I don't know if this will help you but you should have a driver CD with your tablet (mine was called graphire 2) and when you install it you will have a new icon in your control panel called Wacom Tablet. When you open it for the first time there will but a mini tutorial to familiarize yourself with the buttons so click OK and then you will see a button at the top marked as Add Application to List... so add Photoshop and it should work. Then if you want to turn it off you could remove it from the list. I think there was a different way I used to d it but I haven't used my tablet in afew years so I can't remember. Anyway, hope it helps you.
Wacom has been an industry name for some time now, having first entered the tablet peripheral game in 1992 and capturing the lion’s share (over 80% in both Japan and abroad) of the market ever since.By using a resonance technology between pen stylus and receiving tablet, Wacom tablets allow a design which is lighter and lower-profile, meaning that since the pen does not have to accommodate batteries, it can actually have the free weight of the real deal. This can make a big difference during extended drawing sessions.What is the Wacom Bamboo series of tablet and how might it be useful to me?The Bamboo series of tablets from Wacom are the user-level or home-use level of products which can start under $99 for multiple versions -- more inexpensive versions with a simple pen and stylus set (the Connect or Splash models) and a few more expensive models which may feature multi-touch (that same nifty functionality your tablet PC has) as well as a pen-bound eraser (the Capture and Create models).By connecting the Wacom tablets to a standard PC via USB (or Bluetooth, if you opt to skip the Bamboo line completely and buy an Intuos model) and installing the drivers included, users will immediately open a great many functionalities to their computing experience.What can I do with a Wacom tablet?After the Bamboo successfully installs, there will often be a few introductory tutorials featuring the pack-in software, whether it be ArtRage Studio 3 or a simpler tool. Keep in mind that the pen style is pressure sensitive -- if you draw “harder” it will draw a thicker, less transparent line!It will get a bit of getting used to in order to control the stylus and the tablet surface. A few simple tips to offer might be:Remember that since the stylus uses a resonance feature, in order to track the pen the tip must be held slightly over the drawing surface. This will allow you to keep track of where your pen tip is as well as to use the pen to navigate (pan and scroll) the drawing area.In order to perform document markup or to provide signatures, you’ll need a word processor first. OpenOffice or Word should do the trick. After you’ve opened the document you’d like to edit, and you’ve placed the cursor in an area you’d like to mark up, make sure the tablet is active / online. By using the proprietary Bamboo software, activate the stylus through the system tray and review tab and draw away! This process is called “turning ink on”.Unless you bought the high-end Bamboo, remember, the pen doesn’t come with an eraser on the other end, so you’ll have to select an erasure tool!Of course, while document markup is a big part of the appeal of this product for architects, carpenters and other blueprint workers, researchers and academics, the primary appeal of this product is to visual artists. Drawing in Corel Paint Shop Pro, Adobe Photoshop, and other programs (such as the included software) is remarkably seamless in terms of integration.Inklinks, a proprietary software tool, facilitates this process. This means that artists can start commissioning work on oDesk and eLance within minutes of having installed the Wacom device and begin earning money as freelancers immediately. It might be as easy as it sounds, though it is entirely within the realm of possibility.Get sketching, start producing a portfolio, edit those documents for class, and annotate those PDFs with notes as well as a final signature just to make the whole thing official. For well under $99, the Wacom Bamboo tablet line is a deal that should be scrutinized by every visual artist and graphic designer out there as imagery and image creation moves into the 21st century, largely leaving paper behind.
